<span>a narrow span of management implies that the height of the organization will be long; a wide span of management implies that the height of the organization will be short.
This is because in a narrow span of management, less people work under each manager and therefore, there will be more levels of hierarchy making the height of the organization longer and the vice versa applies.

Answer:
By following the Accountants Principle and Dicksons policy of debiting Bad debt accounts as Accounts are written off, the Net income would have been impacted negatively (reduced) by the write off from Prior period of $31,330 only
However, by following the % of receivables approach, a total of $31,330 (Write off from prior period) + $9,240 (current period provision for bad debt) will impact the Net Income negatively (reduced) = $40,570
Explanation:
Accounts receivable balance = $77,000
12% projected uncollectible debt = $9,240
Provision for bad debt under the % of receivables approach = $9,240
Amount written off related to prior year = $31,330
Answer: b. The company did not define its business in terms of the benefits customers seek.
Explanation:
In order for a business to make money, it needs to provide its customers with what they want not what the company wants the customers to want.
In this scenario, people switched to shampoos that could be used by people of all ages instead of just small children because this is what they wanted but not what the company provided. If the company had defined its business in terms of what their customers wanted, they would have made an all age shampoo which would have been bought.
