14,400 production sequences are possible.

Since the first set of machining operations can be performed in any order, after selecting one, there are 4 operations left. After selecting another, there are 3 operations left.

After selecting yet another, there are 2 operations left. Finally, after selecting yet another, there is only 1 operation left. This procedure may be described by the equation below: There are 120 potential options when multiplying 5 by 4 by 3 by 2 by 1. It may also be written mathematically as 5! = 120.

Here, We have 5 × 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120 potential unique options for the final five assembly processes.

So total number of combinations will be - 120 × 120

= 14,400

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

As the price of product increases the consumers will demand less because they now have to pay more than earlier.

The supply however is directly related to price level and will increase with the increase in price. The producers will produce more in order to enjoy higher revenue and profit.

This would encourage the other potential firms to enter the market, to earn higher profits.So more suppliers will enter the market.

However, this would lead to increase in supply of output. The excess supply will cause the price to fall eliminating higher profits.

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The expected/required rate of return is 13.8125%.

Explanation:

The stock is a constant growth stock as the dividends are expected to grow constantly forever. The constant dividend growth model of DDM is used to calculate the price of such a stock today. As we already know the price, we will use the formula of the constant growth model to determine the required rate of return. The formula for constant growth model is:

P0 or Price today = D1  /  r - g

Plugging in the available known values,

16  =  1.25  /  (r - 0.06)

16 * (r - 0.06)  =  1.25

16r  -  0.96  =  1.25

16r = 1.25 + 0.96

r = 2.21 / 16

r = 0.138125  or  13.8125%

Stels [109]

Answer:

The Balanced Scorecard for Management Control

Dana's company can deploy the Balanced Scorecard as a strategic management control approach which views organizational performance from four broad perspectives that are all-embracing.  These perspectives include the  Financial Perspective, the Customer Perspective, the Internal Business-Process Perspective, and  the Learning and Growth Perspective. The aim is to ensure that control is not just about one aspect of the organization, but the whole, and a balance is struck by paying equal attention to the elements that make up an organization.

According to a well-known adage, "what you measure is what you get."  The BSC approach strategically and holistically measures an organization's performance by identifying all the factors that cause improved organizational outcomes.   Therefore, the benefits of using a balanced scorecard include improved internal capacity created by a focus on improving an organization's learning and growth through the Learning and Growth perspective.  This cascades to improved internal processes which result from the internal perspective.  With improved processes, customers and other stakeholders derive better and maximum satisfaction from the organization.  This does not end here.  Satisfied customers cause improved financial results, which are distributed to an organization's stakeholders, including the government in form of taxation, dividends for stockholders, and better pay for employees, etc. These stakeholders in turn try to add value to the organization with better processes and operations, improved financing, and business opportunities.

Looking at the value package of BSC, I agree with Dana that the BSC approach is better than using only financial controls alone.  While financial controls are at the very core of resource management and operational efficiency in any organization, they do not represent the whole picture of management control.  They are the endgames and not the starting strategies for a winning organization.

Explanation:

The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) utilizes a 360 degree approach to achieve effective control of resources toward attaining goals by viewing organizational performance from four broad perspectives, which cover all aspects of any organization.  The four perspectives that BSC uses are the  Financial Perspective, the Customer Perspective, the Internal Business- Process Perspective, and  the Learning and Growth Perspective.  By approaching performance evaluation and management with these perspectives, the Balanced Scorecard is able to achieve all-round management control because no aspect of the organization is left behind.
