Answer:

=  $27,920,000.00

Explanation:

<em>A preferred stock is that which pays a fixed percentage of its nominal  value as dividend. A preferred stock ranks ahead of common stock in the payment of dividends and settlement of claims in the event of liquidation.</em>

<em>However, preference dividends are paid out of profit only after the interest claims of loan creditors have been settled</em>

The total amount of preference dividends payable by Xerox

= 8% × 349,000,000

=  $27,920,000.00

Preference dividends = =  $27,920,000.00

Give some examples of each of the three ""occasions for decision"" cited by Chester Barnard. Explain in your own words why Barna
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: The three "occasions for decision" are:

1. From authoritative communications from superiors

2. From cases referred for decision by subordinates

3. From cases originating in the initiative of the executive command

Explanation: Examples of the three "occasions for decision" are:

1. From authoritative communications from superiors: an increase in the annual target of a sales force, passed on from the director to the sales manager.

This type of decision making is usually about the application of an instruction.

2. From cases referred for decision by subordinates: decision to employ branch level staff, whose engagement is within the right of the branch manager  

This occasion for decision shows a lack of authority in subordinates or an inability to be decisive in the subordinate.

3. From cases originating in the initiative of the executive command: the CEO deciding to take his brick and mortar business completely online.

This is a decision that that is totally the product of the executive head's thoughts, it is usually a strategic level decision and opens his authority to criticism.

Chester Barnard believed that this is the most important occasion for decision because the executive head is best placed to make these decisions in the organization. He has the authority as well as resources to ensure that the decision is followed through.

I also agree that this is the most important occasion for decision. While they are difficult decisions, they can determine the direction of an organization.  There is no one better qualified than the executive command to make or initiate these decisions. Also, it is part of their responsibility to make these decisions.

A company collected $10,000 cash from a customer as a deposit for goods that will be shipped next quarter.
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

(A) Total assets,

(C) Cash from operations and

(D) Total liabilities

Explanation:

A company collecting $10,000 cash from a customer as a deposit for goods that will be shipped next quarter is an example of an unearned revenue. It is receiving money from the customer in advance for the good or service yet to be provided.

And this is considered as a liability and recorded in the balance sheet as such because the company now owes the customer.

When the good or service is now provided, it increases the total assets.

Prior to labor unions, both the employer and employee had the legal right to terminate an employment
Kruka [31]

Before the times of the labor unions, both the employer and the employee reserved the right of employment at will, meaning either one could terminate the agreement at any time and for any reason.

The correct term for the situation proposed in the question is employment at will. The other options describe agreements that have arisen since the creation of the labor unions.

The first option, a closed shop, described an agreement made between the hiring party and the labor unions in which the hiring party agrees to <u>only hire members of the union</u>, while an open shop is just the opposite.

Collective bargaining, on the other hand, is the long process in which the workers of an institution work through their labor unions in order to <u>negotiate contracts </u><u>and the terms of </u><u>employment</u><u>, which include income and benefits. </u>

Therefore the only option that existed prior to the development of labor unions is employment at will, which allowed the termination of a contract at any time for any reason.
