Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": are processes that are specialized for relatively few products or customer groups.

Explanation:

Product-focused processes are those that follow a market segmentation. Companies decide to what sector of the market they will drive their efforts towards and specializes in the manufacturing of a determined good.

05. In identifying risks to then manage and control, as the portfolio
nasty-shy [4]
Introduction
“Project risk analysis,” as described by The Project Management Institute (PMI®), “includes the processes concerned with conducting risk management, planning, identification analysis, response, and monitoring and control on a project;./…” (PMI, 2004, p 237) These processes include risk identification and quantification, risk response development and risk response control.

Because these processes interact with each other as well as with processes in other parts of an organization, companies are beginning to measure risk across all of their projects as part of an enterprise portfolio.

Risk management can be as simple as identifying a list of technological, operational and business risks, or as comprehensive as in-depth schedule risk analysis using Monte Carlo simulation. But because risk is a driver in an organization's growth – the greater the risk, the greater the reward – the adoption of a structured enterprisewide project risk analysis program will give managers confidence in their decision-making to foster organizational growth and increase ROI for their stakeholders.

Choosing the right projects

How well an organization examines the risks associated with its initiatives, how well it understands the way that projects planned or underway are impacted by risk, and how well it develops mitigation strategies to protect the organization, can mean the difference between a crisis and an opportunity.

Examples abound of companies that have seen their fortunes rise or drop based on the effectiveness of their risk management – a pharmaceutical company makes headlines when its promising new drug brings unforeseen side effects. Or a large telecom corporation pours millions of dollars into perfecting long distance, while new technologies are presenting more exciting opportunities.

Today that pharmaceutical is distracted by lawsuits and financial payouts, finding itself with a shrinking pipeline of new drugs. The telecom, on the other hand, after using a portfolio risk management software application to rationalize and rank its initiatives, made the decision to shift its research dollars away from perfecting long distance and into developing VOIP -- rejuvenating and reinforcing its leadership position.

Astor Manufacturing stores hazardous and volatile chemicals in its warehouse. The warehouse has state-of-the-art equipment to ma
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

C. strictly liable for Will's injuries

Explanation:

In law, Strict liability is a situation when defendant is required to be responsible to a certain situation, but can't be considered as guilty to any violation.

There are two points that need to be highlighted from the case above:

1.  Astor Manufacturing process has fulfilled all of its safety regulation for storing the dangerous product.

2. The dangerous product owned by Astor Manufacturing caused William's injury.

The regulations for hazard management is created by the government, and the leak is not caused by their negligence. It's caused by unexpected natural disaster.  This is why we can't say that Astor is guilty to any violation.

But still, the chemical that they created injured William. The court will most likely force Astor to be responsible for all the medical expenses incurred by william.

Oscar owns a building that is destroyed in a hurricane. His adjusted basis in the building before the hurricane is $130,000. His
Alinara [238K]

Answer: $132,000

Explanation:

Oscar's new basis on the building will be the basis of the old building plus any additional investment he added.

This is the because there is no gain on the $140,000 he received because it was an Involuntary Conversion amount and he reinvested it into another building within a period of 2 years.

As there is no gain, the building will retain it's original basis but will add any amount outside the involuntary replacement cost of the building.

The Additional basis will be,

= Cost of building - Insurance

= 142,000 - 140,000

= $2,000

The Basis for the new building is,

= 130,000 + 2,000

= $132,000
