A) he fails to identify the correct problem

B) he fails to assign number values to different criteria

C) he solves the problem inefficiently

D) he fails to correctly identify the steps of the process

<u>Answer</u>:

A. He fails to identify the correct problem.

<u>Explanation</u>:

for option b, Assigning number values to decision criteria could be of help in the decision-making process, but it is not what is required for a successful outcome.

for option c, Solving the problem inefficiently is not ideal, but even at that, it is not without value.

for option d, Identifying the steps of the process has nothing much to do with how successful the process will be.

<em><u>This leaves us with option A as the correct answer. it is of no good to solve a problem especially if the problem being solves is the wrong one. Solving a wrong problem is of no good to the organization.</u></em>

Consider the following scenario:Suppose that Sharon has just finished smoking a cigarette and is thinking about throwing the cig
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Moral codes and social sanctions

Explanation:

Externality is when the actions of a producer or consumer have an effect on third parties not involved in production or consumption.

Externality can be positive or negative.

Postive externality is when the benefits of economic activities to third parties exceeds the costs.

Negative externality is when the costs of economic activities to third parties exceeds the benefits.

Smoking and littering the environment with cigeratte butts is an example of an activity that generates negative externality.

Sharon's morals and sense of judgement cautioned her against littering with her cigarette butts because she knows such activity is frowned against by the society. So, in this case she is guided by her moral codes.

This is one of the solutions to externality.

Other solutions include:

Taxation

Integration of different types of businesses through merger or acquisition

Contracts

Charities

Higgs Enterprise's flexible budget cost formula for indirect materials, a variable cost, is $0.75 per unit of output. If the com
balandron [24]

Answer:

$5,400= indirect material

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= $0.75 per unit of output.

Indirect material spending variance= $600 favorable

8,000 units of output were produced last month.

To determine the indirect material costs incurred, we need to use the following formula:

Indirect material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

600= (0.75 - actual price)*8,000

600= 6,000 - actual price

5,400= actual price (in total)

To prove:

Indirect material price variance= (0.75*8,000 - 5,400)

Indirect material price variance= $600 favorable
