The only way Reethika can get the answer without disturbing either meeting is:

Sending a direct text message to her co-worker's cellphone.

Explanation:

First of all, she can't send someone to look for her because that would disturb both meetings. Also, if she calls her that is also going to disturb both meetings. The only way she has is to send an e-mail or an SMS to her co-worker. However, that depends on the effect people can take upon her. Nevertheless, text messages like e-mails, SMS, or direct messages don't have a high level of disturbance. Considering most people have their cellphones in silence mode.

Department S had no work in process at the beginning of the period. It added 12,200 units of direct materials during the period

galben [10]

Answer:

Cost of completed units = $158,240

Explanation:

Cost of completed units = Cost per equivalent unit × no of units

Equivalent unit = Degree of completion × units of work

Equivalent units of material

( 9200× 100%) + (3000×100%) = 12,200 unit

Cost per equivalent unit of material = $97,600/12,200 units= $8

Equivalent units of labour and overhead

(9200× 100%) + (3000× 25%) = 750

Cost per equivalent unit of labour and overhead

=( 73,630+17910)/9950 =$9.2

Cost of completed units

= $(9.2+8)× 9,200 = 158,240

Cost of completed units = $158,240

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it seems that this is an example of MBO working as objectives cascade down through the organization. This can be said since the organizational goals/objectives start at the top of the organization (executives and managers) and move down through the organizational hierarchy to the lower level employees. Thus cascading down.

Tasya [4]

Answer: a - the management and board of directors of the targeted firm disapprove of the proposed merger

Explanation:

A hostile takeover is a situation where the board of directors and senior managers are against the proposed merger.

There are several pre-offer takeover defense mechanisms. One of them is the golden parachute.

The golden parachute is a compensation agreement between a firm and its senior managers. The firm promises a very lucrative amount of money if the senior managers leave the firm if there's a change of control.

There are also post offer takeover defense. They include:

A. The crown jewel - in a crown jewel the firm sells off a subsidiary or an asset to a third party in an effort to mitigate the hostile take over.

B. Greenmail - the target buys its shares back from the acquiring company at a price higher than the market price. This is done with an agreement that the acquirer leaves the target company. It is a form of payoff by the target company.
