Answer: Contingent theory
Explanation:
The Contingent theory of management believes that management cannot possibly know the best way to manage the activities of a company because things could go wrong at any time.
The theory goes further to suggest that the best bet that a company has is to try to align its internet environment to its external environment. In other words, it should align its corporate culture with the culture of the environment that it is based in.
Answer:
A listing agreement is the document you use to commit to working with a specific real estate agent. Before you sign a listing agreement, ask your agent whether you can be released for any reason, even if that reason is, "I want to list with another broker." If your agent tells you, "No," you might not want to list it with their company.
If you didn't ask your agent about canceling before signing, be aware that exclusive right-to-sell listings contain a safety or protection clause.6
If you ask an agent after the fact to cancel the listing, and they refuse, call their brokerage and request a cancellation. Your listing, believe it or not, is not between you and your agent. It is between you and the brokerage.
If the broker rejects your request for cancellation, then ask the brokerage to assign another agent to you. Most brokers are happy to assign another agent and keep the listing in-house. The brokerage will often pay your fired agent a referral fee.
If there are no workable solutions, call a real estate lawyer for termination assistance, but first, tell the brokerage of your intentions to do so. Sometimes that’s enough to get a release.
Ask your agent to give you a form called "termination of buyer agency." The TBA issued by the California Association of Realtors, for example, will cancel oral or written agency agreements when properly acknowledged and executed.
Answer: D. introduction, growth, maturity, and decline.
Explanation: The life cycle of products are divided into for stages. And it is the entirety of the process wherein a product is brought to a market, grows in popularity and demand, and is then removed from the market as demand drops gradually to zero.
These stages include:
1. Introduction - is characterized by a low growth rate of sales as the product is newly launched. Demand is very low and consumers may not know much about the product.
2. Growth - the public becomes increasingly aware of the product; demand, sales and revenues begin to increase.
3. Maturity - sales gets to its peak. This is because the product reaches market saturation, and competition with other similar products grows increasingly fierce.
4. Decline - sales, growth, begins to shrivel up, profits decline, competition still remains high, and the product ultimately reaches its ‘death' and is recalled from the market or production stopped entirely.
