When Coca-Cola purchased first a part and then all of Honest Tea, what would have been appropriate ways to help this change be s

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The most applicable choices in the order of importance are

C, B then A. Of course, they have to be applied at various stages of the acquisition.

Explanation:

C should have occurred (if possible) before the acquisition. Usually, when there is a major acquisition such as the one described above, it comes with good and bad tidings.

In some cases, especially one involving a large and efficient system like Coca-Cola, many positions become redundant.

In other cases, people are worried if their compensation will be affected. There are usually questions such as:

Will my compensation be reviewed upwards or, downwards?
Will my insurance or 401K be affected adversely? e.t.c.

Thus, executing a survey of Honest Teas' employees to identify such sources of anxiety and conflict related to the acquisition with the goal to address them constructively, will help the change to be successful.

Option B is one strategy that ought to have been executed upon the conclusion and official announcement of the acquisition exercise. This is the most crucial and maybe the most important part of the acquisition/takeover process.

This is true especially if there is going to be changes in management, communication styles, and the culture. Other benefits of team building excercises are, it increases and or improves:

Productivity
Morale
Staff Motivation and
Communication all of which are critical to the success of any organisation.

Option C: On the balance of probability, it is expected that when a bigger company like Coca-Cola acquires a smaller one, the process comes with a lot of benefits. One of such benefits is the payroll upgrade.

After all is said and done, it will serve to boost the motivation and morale of the staff if Honest Tea began to use Coca-Cola's payroll which is likely to be more robust.

Because Cocal-cola is an older, more experience and more global company, it is more likely to have more efficient reimbursement systems. If these are inculcated into the Honest Tea process, with adequate training on how to use it, it will also serve to ensure homogeneity of systems and operations which is critical to the success of an acquisition.

Cheers!

11. If 8,000 units are produced, what is the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of produ

Delvig [45]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Martinez company's relevant range production is 7,500 units to 12,500 units. When it produces and sells 10,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:-

Average cost per unit

Direct materials $7.00

Direct labor $4.50

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.40

Fixed manufacturing overhead $4.00

Fixed selling expense $4.00

Fixed administrative expense $2.10

Sales commissions $1.10

Variable administrative expense $0.55

If 8,000 units are produced,

a) what is the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of production

b) What is this total amount expressed on a per unit basis

Answer:

a) the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of production is $51,200

b) What is this total amount expressed on a per unit basis is $6.40

Explanation:

a)

Given that;

number of units produced is 8,000 units

Variable manufacturing overhead is $1.40

Variable manufacturing overhead cost will be units produced / Variable manufacturing overhead

so Variable manufacturing overhead cost = 8000 units × $1.40 = $11,200

Now Fixed manufacturing overhead cost = 10000 units × $4 = $ 40,000

Total manufacturing overhead cost is the addition of Variable manufacturing overhead cost and Fixed manufacturing overhead cost

$11,200 + $40,000 = $51,200

b)

Number of units produced = 8,000

therefore Manufacturing overhead per unit = Total manufacturing overhead cost / Number of units produced

51,200 / 8,000 = $6.40

An economy has $10 trillion in consumption, $2.5 trillion in investment, $3 trillion in government purchases, $1 trillion in exp

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$15 trillions

Explanation:

The computation of the GDP is shown below:

GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government purchase + Net exports

where,

Consumption = $10 trillions

Investment = $2.5 trillions

Government purchase = $3 trillions

Net exports = Exports - imports

= $1 trillion - $1.5 trillion

= -$0.5 trillion

So, the GDP would be

= $10 trillions + $2.5 trillions + $3 trillions - $0.5 trillions

= $15 trillions

= 13.5 trillions
