Answer:

C). Compare actual controllable costs with flexible budget data.

Explanation:

The Cost center is very crucial to be determined by an organization as it indirectly bestows its profitability. It is usually calculated by comparing the actual cost generated by the department to the expectations as per the budgeted cost. Thus, the most constructive method to evaluate a cost center would be the 'comparison between the actual controllable costs and the flexible budget data' as it helps in assessing the actual expense incurred during the year and whether it is lesser or greater than the cost estimated in the budget. Hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Assume that you would like to purchase 100 shares of preferred stock that pays an annual dividend of $6.00 per share. However, y
butalik [34]

Answer:

$267.1211

Explanation:

return on preference share per unit is $6  , thus at 12% annual rate of return. Initial value of preference shares will be $50 per unit ( $6 divided by 12%).

Total value of preference shares = $50 multiplied by 100 preference shares = $5000

Future value of preference shares = 5000 (1.12)^5  = $8,811.7084

to find the value of money to be deposited to be able to buy the preference shares at the end of 5 yrs.

we work back to get the present value using the mutual fund annual rate

$8811.7084 = pv (1.06)^60  the rate is compounded monthly. Hence we shall compound the return 60 times in 5 years

Bank account money = 8811.7084  divided by 32.9877 = $267.1211

In 1 to 2 paragraphs, analyze how a person's ethics or values might affect his performance on the job.
defon

Answer:

Explanation:

This question puts together two different perspectives based on different goals and metrics: economics and ethics. In economics, self interest is the driving force and productivity is one of the metrics used by managers and shareholders in measuring their profit making. In ethics, doing good for people and creating social value is the goal. The results cannot be measured anymore in units of productivity.

Peter Drucker in his famous book "Management: tasks, responsibilities, practices" says : "To know what a business is we have to start with its purpose. Its purpose must lie outside of the business itself. In fact, it must lie in society since business enterprise is an organ of society. There is only one valid definition of business purpose: to create a customer." That means to create value for society and not to maximize the profit.

I shall add a recent message sent by Richard Branson - the creator of Virgin Group - in his book "Screw business as usual" : Doing good can help improve your prospects, your profits and your business; and it can change the world." But with a condition: in that firm to exist an organizational culture based on positive values and not on profit maximization. In conclusion, ethics may impact positively on performance if and only if there is a managerial philosophy based on ethics and not on profit maximization, and on value creation. In this well-defined context profit and profitability are consequences and not driving forces of the whole business.

horsena [70]

Answer:

E-mail

Explanation:

Text messages, instant messages, and social networking are all generally considered as informal methods of communication which are used to  communicate informal information, such as a the change in a meeting time if schedules have been adjusted during a factory tour.

Secondly such informal means of communication might not be ideal for use to a colleague in another office as the relationship would not be very personal but official.

Since Caroline needs information from a coworker in another office about an upcoming salespromotion, she is better off sending her request via e-mail
