alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

An organic structure in a company has an extremely flat reporting structure. Employees tend to interact among themselves and not along different management levels or direct reports.

Brickhouse is expected to pay a dividend of $3.15 and $2.46 over the next two years, respectively. After that, the company is ex
fenix001 [56]

Answer: $32.70

Explanation:

According to the dividend discount model, the value of the stock today is the present value of the dividends to be paid plus the present value of the value of the dividend from when the company starts maintaining a stable growth rate which in this question in year 2.

= (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

Value at year 2 = Year 3 dividend / ( required return - growth rate)

= ( Year 2 dividend * (1 + g)) / ( required return - growth rate)

= (2.46* ( 1 + 0.039)) / ( 0.113 - 0.039)

= $34.54

Value today = (Year 1 Dividend / ( 1 + r)) + (Year 2 Dividend / ( 1 + r)²) + (value at year 2 / ( r - g))

= 3.15/1.113 + 2.46/1.113² + 34.54/1.113²

= 2.83 + 1.99 + 27.88

= $32.70

shusha [124]

Answer:

The correct answer is:  scope.

Explanation:

Earned Value Management (<em>EVM</em>) is a helpful method that allows high-rank executives to measure the performance of their projects. It analyses the difference between the work planned in the project with the work performed. The three pillars of EVM are <em>scope, time, </em>and <em>cost information</em>. The scoping process implies a Work Breakdown Structure (<em>WBS</em>) where the initial plan is broken into micro levels for better analysis.

Answer:

D. dispersing its activities among various countries in a manner that lowers costs or else helps achieve greater product differentiation and transferring competitively valuable competencies and capabilities from its domestic operations to its operations in foreign markets

Explanation:

A key condition that makes a firm achieve competitive advantage or a favourable business position is it's costs and product design.

If a firm can lower it's cost in a foreign market while also maintaining quality just as it is has done in it's domestic market then it stands a better chance of success.

For example, if a firm in the clothing line industry decides to expand its operations to a foreign market eg Africa.

A key factor in determining its success is its ability to lower its cost in the foreign market as compared to competitors, while also achieving the same quality standards of products.
