Answer: Functional
Explanation: The functional structure of an organisational chart places people with similar skills who perform similar activities in a group under a common manager who answers to an executive a level up in the hierarchy who may oversee multiple departments. Therefore, an organizational chart of a company showing vice presidents with responsibility for key areas such as design, manufacturing, sales, marketing, and after-sales support would reflect a functional structure.
An advantage of the functional structure is that employees are allowed to focus their collective energies on executing their roles as a department but sometimes they might develop tunnel vision (seeing the company solely through the lens of the employee’s job function) and often at times there is a lack of inter-departmental communication.
Answer:
A. Liquidity management is a balancing act, managers try to find liquidity levels that are neither too high not too low.
Explanation:
Maintaining proper liquidity is an important financial objective of management. Proper liquidity management demands that an entity should be able to meet his short term financial obligation and making sure that liquid assets of the entity are not idle. In order to achieve this, the best way to go is to maintain a level that is neither too high and not too low. Not too high means the entity is not holding too much cash or liquid assets than it currently need to meet its short term financial obligation.
For example, not keeping too much cash in current account but investing them in interest-earning investment assets.
Not too low means the cash or liquid assets held by an entity should not less than the amount needed to meet its short term financial obligation. For example, making sure that the entity has enough cash or readily convertible liquid assets that can be used to pay vendors, rent, interest and meet other short term financial obligation.
Option B is false because keeping too much does not help to maximize short term earnings which is a feature of proper liquidity management. Option C is wrong because there is no guideline to support that deferring coupon payment won`t attract payment and this does not connote proper liquidity management.
Option D is obviously false and does not describe proper liquidity management.

Answer:
C.
Explanation:
<em>The correct answer would be changes in consumer input.</em>
The supply of a good can be influenced by changes in the price of inputs for that goods, changes in the price of substitute goods, as well as changes in technology that positively or negatively affect the production of such goods.
What will not affect the supply of any good is changes to consumer's input. An input generally referred to a substance that is required to produce an output. Unless the consumer of a good is also the producer of that good, a consumer's input will not impact the supply of a product.
The correct option is C.
