Answer: B) guaranteeing product quality.

Explanation: After products might have been manufacturing and processing might have been fully completed, finished goods will have to be concealed in an enclosed brand in other to afford the product a certain level of protection, easy handling and convenience to carry around. However, product packaging often goes beyond giving product protection, it is used by manufacturers to appeal and seduce customers to a certain degree in to buying their product over its rivals.

Answer: $24,747.92

Based on the given amounts of increased in savings for the first 3 months, we have the following assumptions:

1) That the savings increase by 2.44% monthly

$18,962.50 -18,500=462.50, 462.50/18962*100=2.44%

$19,436.56--$18,962.50=$474.06, 474.06/19,436.56*100=2.44%

$19,922.48-$19,436.56=485.92, 485.92/19,922.48*100=2.44%

2) That the monthly interest for the first 3 months had an incremental of $0.30 monthly

462.50,474.06 and 485.92 has an incremental of 11.56 and 11.86 (with a difference of .30)

Continuing on with the increments gives savings of $24,747.92 in the 12th month.

Why is there an inherent conflict between planning and control uses of budgets?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The main conflict that results between planning and control use of budgets is that managers might place their own personal interests before the interests of the company. This might result in budgets that are easily achievable (resulting in bonuses) or shifting income from one period to another in order to achieve certain budgets that will result in bonuses.

I will use a real life example that happened to me to explain this. I worked as a B2B sales representative for a large corporation (we were only 2 B2B salespeople + 1 manager) and when sales were slowing down, upper management would set up bonuses for achieving certain sales goals. The problem was that intentionally certain large sales that required management's approval were delayed and total sales would fall. Then suddenly the bonus show sup and all the large sales were approved and in two weeks the sales goals were achieved. Since B2B sales are not about selling to a lot of customers, but instead selling to the right customers a lot of products, a couple of delayed big sales made a huge difference and a 1% bonus meant changing your old car for a new one.
