The performance review ratings seem relevant, but I wonder if they really impact the choice between cash and noncash recognition.

I remember a practice question about cash vs. noncash rewards, and I feel like financial need might play a role too, but it seems less important than the behavior.

I think managers should consider the behavior being rewarded, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only factor.

This is a tricky one. I'm a little confused about whether the financial need of the employee or their past performance review should be the main factor. I'll have to think it through carefully and try to apply the concepts we've learned.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to focus on the behavior being rewarded and whether cash or non-cash recognition would be more motivating and meaningful for the employee. The tax implications are also important to consider.

Hmm, not sure about this one. I'll have to review my notes on employee recognition programs and the pros and cons of cash vs. non-cash rewards. Hoping I can eliminate a couple options and make an educated guess.

This seems like a straightforward question about factors to consider when deciding between cash or non-cash recognition. I'll need to think about the key differences between the two and what would be most appropriate in different situations.
