Marianne manages a landscaping company. She supervises 19 people who perform relatively routine jobs that require minimal traini

ng. Because she is only the manager, not the owner, Marianne has little latitude when it comes to dismissing poor performers. However, she can move employees to positions where they don’t receive tips. Marianne has a reputation for being fair. Although she would like greater autonomy to determine salaries, Marianne generally divides bonuses among her employees. Otherwise, the owner might think she is playing favorites. According to Fiedler’s contingency model, how would you characterize the level of situational control in these circumstances?

Answer:

The correct answer is c. high

                    Being payment for equipment repair to prolong the useful life

                    the asset

Explanation:

The initial cost incurred in acquiring an asset is debited to asset account, subsequently every other cost spent on the assets are either expenses against the earning of that period or expensed over many years over the useful life of the asset.

Capitalization is the recognition of an expense as an asset in the balance sheet rather than expenses in the income statement.

The payment of $22,000 paid for the equipment productivity must be capitalized, that is added to the cost of the asset because it is a cost that is  expected to increase the equipment’s productivity by 10% a year.

The  $6,250  paid for normal repair is a revenue items which is to be expensed against the earning of that period.

The $14,870 paid for repairs which will increase the useful life of the equipment from four to five years is a capital expenditure which should capitalized, that is added to the cost of the asset.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Yes, I agree.

Find explanation below.

Explanation:

The external environment of a business simply refers to the factors found outside the business which can have a profound effect on it. There are basically two types of external environments, namely;

1. The directly interactive which has a direct impact on the business. Examples include, business owners, the customers, contractors, and competitors.  

2. Indirectly interactive whose impact on the business is not immediate. Examples include, the political , socio-cultural, economic influences among others.

Practical Examples:

1. Customers play a crucial role to the running of businesses. Managers must take care to listen to the concerns of the customers and attend to their needs urgently. For example, if a customer complains about his dissatisfaction with a style of service, managers should endeavor to address the concern to avoid losing the customer.

2.Political: Government rules and regulations have an impact on businesses because, not adhering to them could lead to sanctions and even closure of the business. Managers must ensure that they heed to and comply with governmental instructions, such as tax payment.

Ken consumes two goods, Sprite and potato chips. Sprite costs $1 per can, and he consumes it to the point where the marginal uti
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The correct option is c. $8.

Explanation:

Ken will maximize utility where the following equation holds:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips ................. (1)

Where;

MU of Sprite = Marginal utility of Sprite = 3

Price of Sprite = $1 per can

From the table in the question, equation (1) holds at the point where Marginal utility of potato chips is 6 since the Potato chips cost $2 per bag.

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

MU of Sprite / Price of Sprite = MU of potato chips / Price of potato chips => 3 / 1 = 6 / 2 = 3

Since when the marginal utility of potato chips that maximizes utility is 6, Ken consumes 4 Bags of Potato chips monthly and pays $2 per bag at this point, the amount he spends on potato chips each month can be calculated as follows:

Amount spent on potato monthly = Number of bags of Potato chips consumed monthly * Cost of potato chips per bag = 4 * $2 = $8

Therefore, the correct option is c. $8.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

26 packages

Explanation:

Given that:

The demand D = 186 packages in a week

Standard deviation  = 13packages

The lead time L = 1.5 weeks

Order quantity Q = 750 packages

The Confidence service Level = 0.95

At the service level (SL) if we find the P(Z) of the SL using Excel, we have:

P(Z) = NORMSINV(0.95)

P(Z) = 1.64

Thus;

the safety stock = Z × SD√L

= 1.64 \times 13 \sqrt{1.5} \\ \\

= 1.64 \times 13 (1.224745)

= 1.64\times15.92

= 26.11156

≅ 26 packages
