For a cost$-$benefit analysis, anticipated benefits could be quantified by both increases in productivity and decreases in injury rates. Assume that the company profits $500$ TL for each $1$ percent increase in productivity over the course of the year. Similarly, a decrease in workers$$ compensation and medical costs due to a decrease in injuries can be considered a benefit. The company estimates that it has experienced an average loss of $200$ TL per risk index in its $5-$year accident$/$injury analysis. The increases in productivity and decreases in injury rates can be quantified as shown in Table next $($Fill the spaces$).$
