5. Benefits of EVA Measurement – designing a measure of value creation that best reflects economic reality in a particular industry. Management— developing policies, procedures and tools which link decision-making to the measure of value-creation. Motivation— establishing incentive plans that simulate ownership by giving managers a share of value created. They understand that they should be rewarded only if they create shareholder value. Why use EVA as a performance metric? * What separates EVA ®  from other performance metrics is that it measures all of the costs of running a business-operating and financing. This makes EVA ®  the soundest performance metric, and the one most closely aligned with the creation of shareholder value.

Second, the firm can improve the operating efficiencies on its existing Capital, thereby increasing the return on Capital. Third, a firm can harvest Capital from its losing investments , where the return is less than the WACC and has almost no hope for improving. The funds thus generated by harvesting is disgorged to the shareholders or it is used to make worthwhile investments elsewhere.
