Answer to Question 1

C
An outcome for a quality performance measure related to human resources is staff satisfaction. Patient
satisfaction is a clinical care outcome, and return on assets (ROI) is a financial management outcome.
The organizational climate is a human resource process, as opposed to the outcome.

Answer to Question 2

C
The variance for the laboratory was 10.4 percent. To determine the variance, the head of the
laboratory would subtract the budgeted amount from the actual amount (26,500  24,000 = 2,500).
Next, 2,500 is divided by the budget amount of 24,000 = 10.4 percent.
