Explanation:
The proper functioning, within the normal standards of a GIS, means that the information can reach the hands of the decision makers. The quality of the information that arrives, is based on other procedures and structures that are previously defined in the organizational strategy, and its processing depends on the specialization and differentiation of the positions within the organization; that is, the data selected and analyzed by the human resources department is different from the information selected and analyzed by other departments such as marketing, for example (differentiation is shown); but on the other hand, the level of analysis and depth that is given to the information will be variable depending on the specialists and the hierarchical levels within the same department; for example, the depth in the analysis of the data of who occupies the position of Human Resources Manager, and who occupies the position of human resources practitioner (specialization is revealed), therefore the experience and degree of specialization for the objectives of the department, are filters for data analysis.

Answer:
b) 156
Explanation:
Total utility is the total amount of satisfaction received by a consumer after consuming a given quantity of a product or service. In this question there is the total utility of five product.
Total utility = 162
utility of fifth product = 6
Total utility of other four products = Total utility - utility of fifth product
Total utility of other four products = 162 - 6 = 156
Answer: $738,000
Explanation:
The amount they should be reported in the balance sheet for the patent, net of accumulated amortization, at December 31, 2020 goes thus:
The amortization for 2018 and 2019 will be:
= $1,230,000 × 2/10
= $246,000
Then, the carrying value of patent in the beginning of 2020 will be:
= $1,230,000 - $246,000
= $984,000
It should be noted that the remaining life will be:
= 6 years - 2 years
= 4 years
2020 Amortization will then be:
= $984000/4 =
$246000
Accumulated Amortization will be:
= $246,000 + $246,000
= $492,000
Therefore, the amount reported in patents will be as at December 31, 2020 will be:
= $1,230,000 - $492,000
= $738,000
What distinguishes an outsourcing arrangement from any other business arrangement is the transfer of ownership of an organization’s business activities (processes or functions)-or the responsibility for the business outcomes flowing from these activities-to a service provider. In a typical outsourcing arrangement, the people, the facilities, the equipment and the technology (the Factors of Production) are also transferred to the service provider, which then uses the Factors of Production to provide the services back to the organization. The people are often transferred to the service provider, but this is not always the case.
An outsourcing arrangement can be either “tactical” or “strategic.” An outsourcing is tactical when it is driven by a desire to solve a practical problem. For example, a company may find that its payroll clerk is not able to process payroll changes, cheques, tax returns and make the required accounting entries on time. The company concludes that although the payroll clerk is competent, there is too much work for a single person. The company outsources the payroll process (including the clerk), and ends up with all of the payroll work done on time and at a lower cost. As a result, it achieves a net gain in operational efficiency. Similarly, if an organization outsources its IT infrastructure so it can save five to 10 per cent on the cost of operating that function, the outsourcing is purely tactical.
“Strategic” outsourcing, on the other hand, is not driven by a problem-solving mentality. Instead, it is structured so that it is aligned with the company’s long-term strategies. The changes that organizations expect from strategic outsourcing vary and can include anything from
