# Calculating Hulakon Inc.'s ROI for Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Let's break down the problem step by step: --- ## 1. **Expected Turnover Without EAP** - **Total EAP Participants:** 120 - Production: 62 - Clerical: 44 - Management: 14 - **Expected Quit Rate:** 12% per year ### **Expected Quitters by Group** | Group | EAP Participants | Expected Quitters (12%) | |--------------|------------------|------------------------------| | Production | 62 | 62 × 0.12 = 7.44 ≈ 7 | | Clerical | 44 | 44 × 0.12 = 5.28 ≈ 5 | | Management | 14 | 14 × 0.12 = 1.68 ≈ 2 | | **Total** | 120 | **14** | *But this is just the EAP group. Let's look at how many actually quit vs. expected.* --- ## 2. **Actual Quitters After EAP Participation** | Group | Actual Quitters | |--------------|----------------| | Production | 31 | | Clerical | 22 | | Management | 7 | | **Total** | 60 | > **Note:** These are the actual quitters among EAP participants. --- ## 3. **Turnover Cost Savings** ### **Expected Quitters (Without EAP):** - Expected = 120 × 12% = **14.4 ≈ 14** ### **Actual Quitters (With EAP):** - Actual = 31 + 22 + 7 = **60** > This suggests more quitters than expected, which is unusual. But let’s check if the calculation should use the entire population or only the EAP group. - **If 12% of EAP participants were expected to quit:** - Expected = 120 × 12% = **14.4** - **Actual quitters among EAP participants:** 60 > This suggests the EAP did not reduce quits among its participants, so let's double-check if the 60 quitters are company-wide (which doesn't match the expected 12% of 4000 = 480). We should focus on the EAP group as per the problem. --- ## 4. **Cost of Turnover Among EAP Participants** Calculate **actual turnover cost** for EAP participants: | Group | Quitters | Cost per Quitter | Turnover Cost | |--------------|----------|------------------|-----------------| | Production | 31 | $58,500 | $1,813,500 | | Clerical | 22 | $49,000 | $1,078,000 | | Management | 7 | $84,000 | $588,000 | | **Total** | 60 | | **$3,479,500** | **Expected turnover cost (if 12% quit):** | Group | EAP Participants | Expected Quitters | Cost per Quitter | Turnover Cost | |--------------|------------------|-------------------|------------------|-----------------| | Production | 62 | 7.44 ≈ 7 | $58,500 | $409,500 | | Clerical | 44 | 5.28 ≈ 5 | $49,000 | $245,000 | | Management | 14 | 1.68 ≈ 2 | $84,000 | $168,000 | | **Total** | 120 | 14 | | **$822,500** | > **But actual turnover cost ($3,479,500) is much higher than expected ($822,500), suggesting either a misreading or that the 60 quitters are company-wide.** > If so, let's use the company-wide numbers. --- ## 5. **Budget Calculation for EAP** - Hospitalization costs: **$200,000** - This is **56%** of the EAP budget. - **EAP Budget = $200,000 / 0.56 = $357,143** --- ## 6. **ROI Calculation** ROI Formula: \[ ROI = \frac{\text{Savings} - \text{Cost}}{\text{Cost}} \] - If the EAP did **not** save turnover costs (since actual quitters > expected), the ROI is **negative**. - If the **expected** quitters (company-wide) should be compared to actual (company-wide), let's do that: ### **Company-wide Expected Quitters:** - 12% of 4000 = **480 employees** ### **Actual Company-wide Quitters (from EAP data):** - **120 EAP participants**; 60 quit - **3880 non-EAP participants**; expected quitters: 3880 × 12% = 466 **Total Actual Quitters = 60 (EAP) + 466 (non-EAP) = 526** So, **actual turnover increased** (expected 480, actual 526), so the program did not save on turnover costs. --- ## 7. **Final Summary** ### **Summary Table** | Metric | Expected | Actual | |----------------|----------|--------| | Quitters (EAP) | 14 | 60 | | Quitters (All) | 480 | 526 | - Budget for EAP: **$357,143** - Hospitalization cost: **$200,000** (part of EAP budget) - **No turnover savings**; turnover increased. ### **Final ROI Calculation** \[ \text{ROI} = \frac{\text{Savings} - \text{EAP Cost}}{\text{EAP Cost}} \] \[ \text{Savings} = 0 \] \[ \text{ROI} = \frac{0 - 357,143}{357,143} = -1 = \textbf{-100\%} \] --- ## **Conclusion** **Hulakon Inc.'s ROI for its employee assistance program for this one year is -100%.** The program did not result in cost savings from reduced turnover; in fact, turnover was higher than expected. The company spent $357,143 on the EAP, but realized no financial benefit in terms of turnover reduction.

However, the actual turnover (60) exceeds expected turnover (14). ### **Final Calculation of ROI** Given that there were no savings (actual turnover costs surpassed expected), we can summarize: - **Cost of EAP:** $357,143 - **Turnover Cost Savings:** $0 (as costs increased) ### **Final ROI Calculation:** \[ ROI = \frac{0 - 357,143}{357,143} = -1 = \textbf{-100\%} \] --- ## **Conclusion** Hulakon Inc.'s ROI for its employee assistance program for this year is **-100%**. The program did not achieve the intended reduction in turnover costs; instead, turnover increased, leading to higher expenses and no financial benefits from the EAP investment.
