Answer: b. decomposition
Explanation:
Decomposition is a project management technique that takes the entire project scope and all project deliverables and breaks them down into smaller components which makes it easy to manage.
However, decomposition may lead to more work without much value for the time spent and inefficient use of resources which will eventually lead to decreased work efficiency.
It involves:
1. Gathering of information on project deliverables to evaluate any related risks
2. Start the breakdown process at the highest level.
3. Decompose the higher levels into lower level detailed components.
4. Verify the degree of decomposition of the work if it is necessary and sufficient.
The correct answer is - C) planned economies.
The socialist economy type is a planned economy. The planning though is for the whole economy, and it is done by the government officials. This type of economy was witnessed in multiple places around the world, USSR, Yugoslavia, Cuba, China, and more recently in Venezuela, Libya, and North Korea.
In general, this type of economy seems to often have very big problems because of the planning, as it more often than not is mistaken. That has often led to making huge debts, famines, and suffering of the people, and eventually this systems tend to fall apart.
The only exception seems to be Libya, under the rule of Gaddafi, where the economy and the society were thriving, but it was all ruined by a foreign intervention.

Answer:
$3.20 per unit
Explanation:
In this question, we have to compare the cost between two cases
In the first case, the total cost per unit would be
= Direct materials per unit + direct labor per unit + overhead cost per unit
= $11 + $25 + $17
= $53
In the first case, the total cost per unit would be
= Purchase price + overhead cost
= $48.55 + $17 × 45%
= $48.55 + $7.65
= $56.20
So, the difference would be
= $56.20 - $53
= $3.20 per unit
Answer:
$11,200
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense using the units of activity method is shown below:
Before that first we have to find out the depreciation rate which is
= (Original cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated machine hours)
= ($140,000- $28,000) ÷ (40,000 hours)
= ($112,000) ÷ (40,000 hours)
= $2.8
Now for the depreciation expense is
= Machine hours × depreciation per machine hours
= 4,000 × $2.8
= $11,200
