Answer:

The correct answer is option A

Explanation:

A receipt of cash indicates an increase in cash which is an asset. When an asset increases, it is represented by a debit to that asset's account and the asset side of the accounting equation is also debited. Thus, a receipt of $12000 cash from stockholders will be represented by a debit or an increase to the asset account for $12000.

The other side of the transaction would be a credit to the equity for $12000 because the stockholders are the owners of the company and any capital invested by the owners in the company is represented by a credit to the equity account as the capital is credited when it increases. Thus, the effect on accounting equation will be an increase in the equity of $12000.

galben [10]

Answer:

Putting the organization at risk if higher-level management is unaware of their actions

Explanation:

Decentralization is a process of top management transferring decision-making powers, particularly in relation to planning and control, by means of delegated authority away from the top, to lower levels of management.

Once this is done, of the disadvantages is that: top management might not always be aware of issues when they occur and how and when they nmay have been resolved. This could put the organisation at risk because certain issues may have been better resolved at the top by virtue of the experience of senior management. In essence, Top management might begin to loose control.
