a) The school of management that the Management of XYZ Company Limited is applying is called <em>Mathematical or Quantitative School of Management.</em>

The Mathematical or Quantitative School of Management:

  • Expresses management problems in equations, mathematical symbols, and quantitative models  
  • Encourages wide application of computer technology, simulations, and analytics
  • Introduces precision to management thinking and practice

b) The Contingency School, unlike the Mathematical  School of Management:

  • Recognizes that not all management processes can be expressed with mathematical symbols and formulas.
  • Identifies that mathematical models cannot replace sound judgment, which requires intuition and not equation.
  • States that there is no single technique to solving management problems.
  • Encourages managers to use any feasible management technique to solve problems, thereby thinking outside the box.
  • Emphasizes that the applications of management principles and practices (process, behavioral, quantitative, and systems) should be contingent upon the prevailing circumstances.  

Thus, with Contingency School, the tools of management thinking and practice should be applied based on prevailing situations and not mathematically with equations, models, and symbols.

An all-equity firm is considering the following projects:
Elza [17]

Answer:

a)

Project Y and Project Z

b)

Project X and Project Y

c)

Project X and Project Z

Explanation:

Apply the CAPM to calculate the required return for each project as followed:

Project W: 4% + 0.75 * (11%-4%) = 9.25%

Project X: 4% + 0.90 * (11%-4%) = 10.3%

Project Y: 4% + 1.15 * (11%-4%) = 12.05%

Project Z: 4% + 1.45 * (11%-4%) = 14.15%

So, for:

a)

Which projects have a higher expected return than the firms 11 percent cost of capital: Project Y 12.8% and Project Z 13.9% which are given.

b)

Project should be accepted is project that has expected returns higher than required return which is Project X and Project Y.

c)

Using the firm's overall cost of capital as a hurdle rate:

Project Z will be accepted which is incorrect because its Required returned is higher than its expected returns ( 14.15% > 13.9%)

Project X will be rejected which is incorrect because its Required returned is lower than its expected returns ( 10.3% < 10.8%).

gregori [183]

The fast burger is not an example of mechanistic organization, therefore, it is false. It is because a mechanistic organization should provide rules and tasks that are provided to each employee and the authority should be centralized—in the given scenario, the mechanistic organization is not seen above.
