3. What are the most important elements of Toyota’s organizational structure?

1 answer:

6 0

<span>Toyota employs a vertical structure within its business, meaning that it heavily relies on a management driven way of self-running. Managers are highly in control of the flow of business and production. Toyota also employs a system called 'TPS' in which employees have the power to veto a product if there is a defect or reason to believe there will be a defect. This is perhaps the most important element of Toyota's organizational structure.</span>

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

$427,011.92

Explanation:

We use the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attached spreadsheet

Given that,

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 7.5%

NPER = 15 years

PMT = $45,000

The formula is shown below:

= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)

And, in type we write the 1 instead of 0

So, after solving this, the present value is $427,011.92

notka56 [123]

Answer:

B. decision styles are consistent among top managers

Explanation:

Decision making styles differ between managers. Many managers exercise autocratic style which is authoritative wherein very limited inputs from the subordinates are taken and there is little scope for constructive advises.

In heuristic style, the strategies help managers to take clear cut decisions in a prompt manner. In such a form, decisions are arrived at quickly.

Managerial decision making methods differ from manager to manager and are an outcome of managers own judgement and demeanor.

Hence it is evident from above points that decision styles are not consistent among top managers.

A project will produce an operating cash flow of $56,200 a year for 5 years. The initial fixed asset investment in the project w

Lelu [443]

Answer :

Net present value = -$18,375

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

Initial investment = $239,800

The project will generate operating cash flow pf $56,200 for 5 years

So present value of operating cash flow :

PMT = $56,200

N = 5 years

Rate = 15.2%

FV = $0

Now applying the formula

= -PV(RATE,NPER,PMT,FV,0)

The present value comes $187,502

Now

FV = $67,000

n = 5 years

Rate = 15.2%

PMT = $0

Now applying the formula

= -PV(RATE,NPER,PMT,FV,0)

The present value comes $33,023

Now the Net present value is

= ($33,023 + $187,502) - $238,900

= -$18,375

Shenandoah Springs Company is considering two investment opportunities whose cash flows are provided below:

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

PV Index = 1.158

Explanation:

Present value index is the ratio of discounted cash flows of the project divided by initial outlay required for the project thus first we calculate the Present Values for Investment B

Present value factors @ 12% for year 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively.

0.893

0.797

0.712

0.636

Net Present Value = -9000 + (5000 * 0.893) + (4000 * 0.797) + (3000 * 0.712) + (1000 * 0.636)

NPV = $1425

Present value Index = NPV / Initial investment = 1425/9000 = 0.158

This can be interpreted as 1 + 0.158 = 1.158,

1 being the initial investment. You can also choose not to subtract the initial outlay when calculating NPV.

Hope that helps.
