Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Implementing plans where functional managers will be held responsible for cost overruns against their original estimate possess both advantages and disadvantages :

The advantages include:

1) Efficient use of Resources : A functional manager could be explained as the head or a person who has managerial authority over a department within a business organization. As such the functional manager will be able to monitor more effectively and take control of his unit. Holding them responsible for cost overruns will ensure that they are more cautious when it comes to resource and cost management as they will not want to be sanctioned.

11) ACCOUNTABILITY: It increases the sense of responsibility of the functional managers as they are being held fully responsible for the decisions made within their unit. This places a higher burden of showing sincerity on the managers.

The disadvantage associated with the plan is the possibility of producing low quality products resulting from the economical and cautious approach embarked upon in other to prevent cost overrun, materials used may be lesser quality than expected.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The company's monthly net operating income increases $4,600

Explanation:

The company is currently selling 6,000 units per month:

Total sales = $130 x 6,000 = $780,000

Total Variable expenses = $78 x 6,000 = $468,000

Net operating income = Total sales - Total Variable expenses - Fixed expenses = $780,000 - $468,000 - $184,000 = $128,000

If Kuzio Corporation increases in the monthly advertising budget of $5,800:

Total sales = $130 x 6,200 = $806,000

Total Variable expenses = $78 x 6,200 = $483,600

Fixed expenses = $184,000 + $5,800 = $189,800

Net operating income = $806,000 - $483,600 - $189,800 = $132,600

The company's monthly net operating income increases = $132,600 - $128,000 = $4,600
