## Frequently Asked Questions

**How is the total acquisition cost calculated?**
The `get_acquisition_summary` tool calculates this by summing the market salary, equity costs, and direct recruiting expenses.

**How does scarcity affect the productivity timeline?**
Using `calculate_productivity_timeline`, the system factors in the scarcity level; higher scarcity increases the estimated months until full productivity.

**Can I calculate the break-even point for a new hire?**
Yes, the `calculate_innovation_roi` tool provides the specific month in which the talent's generated value exceeds their total acquisition cost.
