Answer:

b. professional bureaucracy

Explanation:

Bureaucracy refers to a kind of organizational structure which is governed by a clearly defined authority and rigid rules and regulations alongside long chain of hierarchy and reporting, which makes decision making a time consuming affair.

As per Mintzberg, professional bureaucracy is characterized by standardization of skills coupled with vertical and horizontal decentralization of responsibilities.

Such form of organizational structure allows for greater degree of autonomy and control to the professionals w.r.t their work. Such a bureaucracy recognizes the authority of professional expertise instead of the authority of hierarchy.

Such form of organizational structure is usually followed by schools, hospitals and universities wherein, the professional expertise of doctors and teachers define the authority instead of a pre existing chain of hierarchy that dictates what one is permitted to do.

Park Co. is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $27,000 and provides expected cash inflows of $9,000 an
Reil [10]

Answer:

IRR =   12.92%

Explanation:

<em>The IRR is the discount rate that equates the present value of cash inflows to that of cash outflows. At the IRR, the Net Present Value (NPV) of a project is equal to zero </em>

<em>If the IRR greater than the required rate of return , we accept the project for implementation  </em>

<em>If the IRR is less than that the required rate , we reject the project for implementation  </em>

A project that provides annual cash flows of $24,000 for 9 years costs $110,000 today. Under the IRR decision rule, is this a good project if the required return is 8 percent?

Lets Calculate the IRR

<em>Step 1: Use the given discount rate of 10% and work out the NPV </em>

NPV = 9000× (1-1.10^(-4)/0.1) - 27,000 =1528.78

<em>Step 2 : Use discount rate of 20% and work out the NPV (20% is a trial figure) </em>

NPV = 9000× 1- 1.20^(-4)/0.2 - 27000 = -3701.38

<em>Step 3: calculate IRR </em>

<em>IRR = a% + ( NPVa/(NPVa + NPVb)× (b-a)%</em>

IRR = 10% +  1528.78/(1528.78+3701.38)× (20-10)%= 0.12923

     = 0.129230153  × 100

IRR =   12.92%
