Answer:
detects potential problems early to prevent their occurrence.
Explanation:
Six Sigma is a quality business management strategy which helps business organizations to improve the quality of processes, products and services by discovering and eliminating defects, variations or errors. It is a strategic business concept that was developed in 1986 by Motorola.
This ultimately implies that, the six sigma approach to quality control detects potential problems early to prevent their occurrence.
Under the six sigma approach, any process that doesn't provide customer satisfaction or causes challenges in an organisation's process should be eliminated from the system in order to produce quality products and services. It allows only 3.4 defective features for every million opportunities and as such expects processes to be defect free 99.99966 percent of the time.
<em>Generally, there are two (2) main methods of achieving the six sigma approach;</em>
<em>1. DMAIC: define, measure, analyze, improve and control.</em>
<em>2. DMADV: define, measure, analyze, design and verify. </em>
Answer: $185,500
Explanation:
Total cash received = Sales revenue - Accounts receivable + owner's investment + amount borrowed
= $362,000 - $46,400 + $42,000 + $30,000
= $387,600
Total cash disbursement = Merchandise purchased - Accounts payable + Salaries + Interest + Insurance
= $200,000 - $38,600 + $28,100 + $2,700 + $9,900
= $202,100
Ending cash balance = Total cash received - Total cash disbursement
= $387,600 - $202,100
= $185,500
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "E": To a large extent, the decision to dissolve a firm through liquidation versus keeping it alive through reorganization depends on a determination of the value of the firm if it is rehabilitated versus the value of its assets if they are sold off individually.
Explanation:
Liquidation refers to the termination of an enterprise and the transfer of its properties to the creditor or business owners. The liquidation most frequently happens in the context of a bankruptcy. A bankruptcy trustee must sell the company properties to the creditors and split the proceeds.
<em>The decision of keeping a business against liquidating it will depend on the comparison between the value of continuing operating which relies on the current value the firm has in the market against the value of the individual assets the firm has. Whichever greater will determine if the business will remain open or if it will be closed.</em>
I inferred you are to the 2017 TEDx talk "Short-termism is killing us: it's time for Long path" by Ari Wallach.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Wallach, he refers to short-termism as focusing on short-term results at the expense of long-term interests.
In his words, short-termism is a problem because;
- "it prevents the CEO from buying really expensive safety equipment"
- "prevents teachers from spending quality one-on-one time with their students".
So in summary what Wallach is saying is that short-termism prevents futuristic thinking.
