Answer:
A.Incorrect
B. Incorrect
Explanation:
a) A manager might reject a proposal using ROI that the manager would accept using residual income
The statement is incorrect. The reverse is true. Using ROI entails the manager comparing the ROI after a project to the ROI before, where implementing a project makes the ROI after to be less than what it before the project, the Manager would most likely not implement the project. This would happen notwithstanding that the project produces positive residual income.
b) Managers will be more likely to pursue projects that will benefit the entire company when being evaluated on ROI instead of residual income.
This statement is incorrect. ROI makes the manager to pursue his own interest and that of its division at the expense of the group objectives. It leads to sub-optimal decision
Answer:
The second one
Explanation:
Control through rules and budgets can lead to rigidity and loss of creativity in an organization in a way that it limits change. When all available funds are allocated to specific operational budgets, it may be impossible to procure additional funds, when an opportunity arises elsewhere. Some organizations are therefore working in a way to back their budgeting systems.
Answer:
$26800
Explanation:
Total cost to be capitalized for the assets
= 145500 + 6500 +12000
= $164000
Estimated useful life = 5 years
Salvage value = $30000
Using the straight-line method,
Annual Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/ Number of years
= (164000 - 30000)/5
= 134000/5
= $26800
Answer:
A) leveraging new core competencies to improve current market position.
Explanation:
As is given in the scenario, the people that the company Ancho is trying to get are <em>potential customers</em> rather than existing, hence they cannot be said to be building new core competencies <em>to protect and extend current market position</em>. That would have been the case if they were trying to keep those that were already customers to the company.
Ancho cannot also be said to be <em>redeploying existing core competencies to compete in future markets </em>because they are actually acquiring new competencies in electric car manufacturing which was not their original line of business.
There is also no case of <em>unlearning existing core competencies </em>because Anchor has deployed existing competencies in developing a hybrid car rather than just an electric one.
Hence Anchor is trying to get new customers while keeping the old ones and has made a car that will appeal to both existing and potential customers to improve current market position.
