Zjp = Zs * rs/jp
In other words, the z-score on job performance
will be reduced by the amount of the correlation
between job performance and skill
HRM at UB
Zjp = Zs * rs/jp
Zjp = .5 * .4 = .2
This means that your skill score of .5 sds above the
average, translates to .2 sds above average on job
performance

Assumed Benefits
Break-Even Analysis
This analysis addresses the question of how much (or little) of an increase
in job performance is needed to recoup HR costs.
1. Benefit = N * SD$ * Pc
2. Bottom-line Impact (BLI) =Benefit-Costs
3. BLI = N*SD$* Pc - Costs
4. 0 = N*SD$* Pc - Costs
5. Costs = N*SD$* Pc
6. Pc = Costs/(N*SD$)
HRM at UB
3. Costs = N*SD$* Pc
$101,250=50*$20 mill.* Pc
4. Pc = Costs/(N*SD$)
.0001 = Costs/(N*SD$)
