Answer: weak position power

                       

Explanation: In simple words, position power refers to the authority that one possess over others in an organisation due to the position in the managerial hierarchy such individual holds. The position power work as a base line for the senior subordinate relationship in a firm.

The position power makes flow of communication vertical, that is, from downward to upward and vice versa, which creates a sense of respect and fear among the subordinate towards their seniors.

In the given case, Abigail is the department manager and the other participant on which she wants to make order to holds same position as she do. Thus, there is no senior subordinate relationship among them which concludes weak position power.

Equipment purchased at the beginning of the fiscal year for $150,000 is expected to have a useful life of 5 years, or 15,000 ope
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

(a). Depreciation for 1st year= $24,000

Depreciation for 2nd year= $24,000

(b). 1st Year Depreciation = $20,000

for 2nd year depreciation = $26,000

(c) 1st year Depreciation= $60,000

2nd year Depreciation = $36,000

Explanation:

a).

Annual Depreciation of Equipment = (Cost of Equipment - Residual Value) ÷ Useful Life of Equipment

= ($150,000 - $30,000) ÷ 5

= $24,000

Rate of Straight Line Depreciation = Annual Depreciation of Equipment ÷ (Cost of Equipment - Residual Value) × 100

= 24,000 ÷ ( $150,000 - 30,000) × 100

= $24,000 ÷ $120,000 × 100 = 20%

Depreciation for 1st year= $24,000

Depreciation for 2nd year= $24,000

b). Unit Of Production For 1st Year Depreciation= (Cost Of Equipment -Residual Value) × Annual Production Units ÷ Total Operating Hours

= ($150,000 - $30,000) × 2,500 ÷ 15,000 = $20,000

Unit of Production for 2nd year depreciation = ( $150,000 - $30,000) × 32,50 ÷ 15,000

= $26,000

c). Declining Balance Depreciation Rate = Straight Line Depreciation Rate × 2

= 20% × 2 = 40%   (Because Declining Balance at Twice the Straight Line Rate)

1st year Depreciation= $150,000 × 40÷100 = $60,000

2nd year Depreciation = ($150,000 - $60,000) × 40÷100 =$36,000

harkovskaia [24]
I believe that Anna has just encountered a glass ceiling. 
This means that Anna has encountered a barrier that her from rising to the level of management committee through promotion simply because she is a woman.This term is extended to refer to the obstacles that hinder the advancement of minority women. It is often difficult for minority women to rise to ranks  simply because of their responsibilities, color and discrimination. In this case, Anna being a good mother to her children makes the management think that she wont want more responsibilities.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a=   54796

h=  80,824

d=117916  

i=67915.68  

e=$ 352196  

b=  58,800  

f= 373496

j=  234500

c= 15100

k=   1900

g=3721596

Explanation:

Orlando Company

Manufacturing Cost Data

                                                 Case A          Case B       Case C

Direct materials used                 (a)               $91,200    $69,000

a=149,800 - 42,804-  52,200     54796

Direct labor                               52,200         143,800          (h)

$69,000 +x+0.82h= 216100

1.82h= 216100-69000

h= 147100/1.82= 80,824                                                     80,824

Manufacturing overhead applied 42,804      (d)                   (i)

d=82% of 143,800=117916                                 117916

i=82% of 80824 =  67915.68                                                 67915.68                      

Total manufacturing costs 149,800                 (e)              216,100

e=$91,200+ 143,800+ 117916                              352196

Work in process 1/1/14              (b)                21,300           18,400

b=208,600- 149,800                   58,800

Total cost of work in process 208,600         (f)                   (j)

f=352196+ 21,300                                           373496

j=216,100 + 18,400                                                               234500

Work in process 12/31/14             (c)               11,900            (k)

c=208,600 - 193,500                     15100

k=234500 -232,600                                                            1900

Cost of goods manufactured 193,500           (g)             232,600

g=373496- 11,900                                         3721596

The formulas used are given below.

Total Manufacturing Cost = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overheads

Total cost of work in process= Total manufacturing costs+ Opening Work in process

Cost of goods manufactured= Total cost of work in process - Closing Work in process

In each of these if two amounts are known we can find the third one.We can also do rearrange these to find the required amounts.The calculation of each of the missing amount has been done next to it.
