Answer:

Explanation:

These are competence needs. These needs are based on the idea that a person needs to feel a sense of mastery when they are undertaking tasks at a job. When the manager gives the worker a sense of accomplishment by noticing when they are doing the job well, this is a way of fulfilling those needs.

4vir4ik [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no further information about the case of study, we can say that the question possible refers to the case where the name of the company is just "The Client." The name of the document is "Leading Innovation Change - The Kotter Way."  

This case refers to the challenges faced by an organization when it is time to innovate. Many members want to innovate but the culture of the company or the lack of proper leadership from managers often hinders the innovation efforts of the company.

So some of the elements of Kotter's Eight Stages of Leading Change that were included in the case were the following.

Create Urgency. The creation of new products of the company was limited and was not enough to compete in the future. A sense of urgency was needed to implement innovation.

Form a Powerful coalition. The company had to be very selective about the kinds of products that could help it to successfully compete in the future. The company had to use the best it had to establish priorities.

Create a vision for change. It was critical for the company to establish a new vision to get the results it needed. A renovation of the processes to face new necessities was imperative. Change has to be part of every member's mind.

Communicate the vision. This new vision had to be shared through the entire company. The members had to understand the importance of the innovative practices and each and every one of them had to be part of this new mentality.

liq [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. McGregor's Theory X.

Explanation:

Theory X is defined by Douglas McGregor in his 1960s book "The Human Side of Enterprise" as an <em>authoritarian</em> style of management. In the book, McGregor explains that styles of management are greatly influenced by how the manager views people. Theory X is based on the view that workers are inherently lazy and unmotivated, prefer to be directed, do not like to take responsibility and dislike to work in general. In this style of management, it is assumed that the only way to push employees to work is to provide them with incentives or punishments, according to their performance. Also, authority is centralized on a select few and employees are strictly controlled and supervised.

In this particular case, Gerard fits the Theory X style of management, as he coerces and threatens employees to push them to do their jobs. He has the belief that people don't like to work and avoid it.

Suppose Country Cafe restaurant is considering whether to​ (1) bake bread for its restaurant​ in-house or​ (2) buy the bread fro
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Question

Suppose Country Cafe restaurant is considering whether to​ (1) bake bread for its restaurant​ in-house or​ (2) buy the bread from a local bakery. The chef estimates that variable costs of making each loaf include $ 0.52 of​ ingredients, $ 0.23 of variable overhead​ (electricity to run the​ oven), and $ 0.78 of direct labor for kneading and forming the loaves. Allocating fixed overhead​ (depreciation on the kitchen equipment and​ building) based on direct​ labor, Country Cafe assigns $ 1.04 of fixed overhead per loaf. None of the fixed costs are avoidable. The local bakery would charge $ 1.74 per loaf.

  1. What is the absorption cost of making the bread
  2. What is the variable cost
  3. Should Country make the bread or buy
  4. What other factors should be considered

Answer

  1. Absorption costing cost per unit= $2.57
  2. Variable costing cost per unit=1.53
  3. It will be cheaper for Country Cafe to produce internally than to buy from outside as it will save $0.21 per unit of bread
  4. See explanation for other factors

Explanation:

Absorption cost= Direct cost + Variable overhead + Fixed overhead

                   = 0.52 + 0.23+ 0.78 + 1.04

                   = $2.57

Variable cost of making the loaf= Direct cost + Variable overhead

                     =0.52 + 0.23+ 0.78 = $1.53

                                                                               $

Variable cost of making                                     1.53

External purchase price                                      <u>1.74</u>

Extra cost of external purchase per unit            <u>0.21 </u>

It will be cheaper for Country Cafe to produce internally that to buy from outside as it will save $0.21 per unit of bread

Non-Financial factors

Product Quality. Country Cafe needs to be sure that the quality of bread to be provided wont be undermined.  should it decides to buy.

Trade secret: is there a guarantee that the contractor would not divulge or abuse the privileged information about the ingredients to be mixed and some other trade secrets

Delivery : Reliable and timely delivery are very important. Would the external supplier be able to meet expectations?
