Description
Summary:This paper seeks to determine whether capital productivity affects the EVA valuation of listed companies in the Philippines. Furthermore, this paper aims to compare the impact among industries. How well a company uses its capital in providing goods and services is extremely important in assessing its performance. Understanding of the possible link between the two can lead meaningful insights on how to enhance the firm’s performance and operations, thus gaining a significant competitive advantage. The population in this research comprises all the listed companies in the Ph000000ilippine Stock Exchange, excluding holding firms, firms in the mining industry and those which do not operate during a calendar year. Data were obtained from the firm’s financial statements from 2006-2008.
