Training return on investment (ROI) is a calculation of economic return on a project.\tAn organization lost 125 employees last year, at a cost of $5,000.00 each. (Value is derived from cost to rehire and fill opening, as well as lost investment in the employee.) You suggest that a one-time investment in a training program (costing $250,000 up front) will reduce turnover by 50%. Calculate the following numbers using historical figures as your assumptions.\t2. Cost-benefit analysis presents data as a ratio to determine financial impact on company profitability.\u00a0The formula is: cost-benefit ratio = value of projected benefits divided by cost.\tWe have estimated that a training program on sexual harassment will cost $14,000 and result in a savings of $70,000 (the cost of the two settlements we paid last year).\tValue of projected benefits = $70,000 Cost = $14,000.00\t3. Break-even analysis. This is the point in which revenue (or savings) from the program equals the cost of the program-the time the company has &#8220;broken even&#8221; on the cost of the training.\tFormula = Break-even point = cost\/savings * time\ttime\u00a0is the period of time in which the return is being calculated, if annually, then 12months.\t4.\u00a0Why is it important for trainers to be able to estimate the ROI, cost-benefit analysis, and break-even analysis? Give three reasons why calculating this information will assist the training endeavors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
