Answer:

The correct answer is option (b) 44,000

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

From the question given, the first step to take is to find out how many square feet would the Building Maintenance cost be allocated

Now,

The Square feet over which Building Maintenance cost would be allocated is stated as follows:

The Square feet over which Building Maintenance cost would be allocated = Square Footage of Machining + Square Footage of Assembly = 18000 + 26000

Thus,

=18000 + 26000 = 44,000

At an annual effective interest rate of 6.3%, an annuity immediate with 4N level annual payments of 1,000 has a present value of
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

$8,949.22

Explanation:

PV = annual payment x PV annuity factor

PV annuity factor = 14,133 / 1,000 = 14.133

PV annuity factor = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.063)ⁿ ] / 0.063

14.133 x 0.063 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.063)ⁿ

0.890379 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.063)ⁿ

1/(1 + 0.063)ⁿ = 0.109621

1 / 0.109621 = 1.063ⁿ

9.12234 = 1.063ⁿ

n = log 9.12234 / log 1.063 = 0.96010624 / 0.0265333 = 36

the present value of the first 36/4 = 9 payments = $1,000 x 6.71376 (PV annuity factor, 9 periods, 6.3%) = $6,713.76

the present value of the third set of 9 payments = $6,713.76 / (1 + 6.3%)¹⁸ = $2,235.46

present value of the first and third sets = $8,949.22

Answer:

An increase in sale for 90 units, will increase the net income for 1$,170

<em>We are not given with any information of additional cost or special price for this units, so we use the current values.</em>

So we simply multiply the contribution per unit by the increase in sale.

Contribution Margin  x Δ sales = Δ income

13 x 90 = 1,170

Each unit contributes with 13 additional income, there are 90 additional units

Total income added 1,170

Give some examples of each of the three ""occasions for decision"" cited by Chester Barnard. Explain in your own words why Barna
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: The three "occasions for decision" are:

1. From authoritative communications from superiors

2. From cases referred for decision by subordinates

3. From cases originating in the initiative of the executive command

Explanation: Examples of the three "occasions for decision" are:

1. From authoritative communications from superiors: an increase in the annual target of a sales force, passed on from the director to the sales manager.

This type of decision making is usually about the application of an instruction.

2. From cases referred for decision by subordinates: decision to employ branch level staff, whose engagement is within the right of the branch manager  

This occasion for decision shows a lack of authority in subordinates or an inability to be decisive in the subordinate.

3. From cases originating in the initiative of the executive command: the CEO deciding to take his brick and mortar business completely online.

This is a decision that that is totally the product of the executive head's thoughts, it is usually a strategic level decision and opens his authority to criticism.

Chester Barnard believed that this is the most important occasion for decision because the executive head is best placed to make these decisions in the organization. He has the authority as well as resources to ensure that the decision is followed through.

I also agree that this is the most important occasion for decision. While they are difficult decisions, they can determine the direction of an organization.  There is no one better qualified than the executive command to make or initiate these decisions. Also, it is part of their responsibility to make these decisions.
