There was no standard organizational structure, rather all major functions were performed by one person. George Henderson's focus was more on production and customers satisfaction. 2) Do you think it meets the criteria for an effective compensation system as set out in compensation notebook 1.1 goals of the reward and compensation system (found in the text book page 12). We think that the criteria for the effective compensation system do not meet the goals of reward and compensation system in Henderson Printing because Long (2013, p.11) describes that the reward is one that adds value in organization, considering all the costs which is not seen in Henderson Printing. Long (2013, p.11) describes eight criteria's of goals of reward and compensation system, but in Henderson Printing, none of the criteria was met.
Micromanagement like this puts employees in a threatened state and unable to perform their best. Additionally, while the reward system may have appeared functional, it ultimately was very poorly designed. Employees felt incentivized to simply “impress” their superiors, which did not necessarily correlate with actual performance. Further, the assessment cloaked evaluations as a part of career development counseling, creating a conflict of interest for the auditor collecting performance information from the employees. Finally, the evaluation system failed to require managers to provide feedback to their reports, inhibiting an environment of learning or growth.
When Kudler makes business improvements, it causes their competitors to either imitate them or get out of the business. Some negative effects a monopolistic competition has on Kudler Fine Foods is that in the long run, profits even out and the company will maintain equilibrium. Entry to this industry is relatively seamless. As new competitors enter the market, the demand curve shifts to the left which thereby reduces economic profit. Productive efficiency is absent in the monopolistic competition.
The inches value shall be converted into decimal division. C = 4d -1/3b C= 4(23,245)-1/3 *(13.5) I plug in the given variables using the order of operations, the exponents will be solved first. C= 4(.035)*(13.5) – Multiply C= .14(13.5) Simplify C= 1.89 – the capsize value is less than 2 b) Solving for D in order to solve this equation I will be using the same formula that was given in the previous problem. C = 4d -1/3b 4d -1/3 b = c c Flipping equation so d is on the left. 4d -1/3 b = c 4d - 13 b = c Divide both sides by 4 and b.
Decision models are mathematical symbols representing levels of activity. TRUE/ FALSE 11. Which of the following could be a linear programming objective function? A) Z = 1A + 2BC + 3D B) Z = 1A + 2B + 3C + 4D C) Z = 1A + 2B / C + 3D D) Z = 1A + 2B2 + 3D E) all of the above 12. Decision variables A) measure the objective function B) measure how much or how many items to produce, purchase, hire, etc.
5. The confidentiality agreement did limit the scope of the audit performed on ZZZZ Best. It is the job of the auditor to obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence. When Ernst & Whinney were not allowed to follow-up with anyone involved in the restoration process that limited their ability to gather evidence. The company should have been able to follow up with all venders and customers to attest to the validity of the financial statements and they were not able to do this and not able to gather the “appropriate and sufficient evidence” needed.
Allocating cost this way would not be accurate since DOP could not see the improvement in cost control from electronic order and desktop delivery. The company should use the ABC approach which is recognized costs by their activities and drivers for its pricing system. The cost drivers are used as bases to allocate costs to the product and thus would reflect more accurate product costs than using traditional cost pricing system.

shrink the size of the machine considerably. B. increase the stock price of its subsidiary Digital Equipment Corporation. C. reduce costs by replacing hardware safety features with software safety features. D. eliminate the need for lead shielding.

Committees also have power to appoint specialists. These are not permanent committee members, but specialists from businesses paid by the day. They aim to scrutinise the executive and hold them to account, scrutiny includes policy, administration, and expenditure of government departments. Source C suggests that Select Committees often have their recommendations ignored, and therefore the effectiveness of the committees is decreased. Due to the reports produced by Select Committees not being binding governments can disregard the advice from specialists, and reports that are produced tend not to be yananymous - especially when a general election is near.
The US and Iraq should not go to war because there’s no real justification, Iraq does not pose a clear or present threat, and the US is less safe as a result. As stated, there’s no real vindication for going to war with Iraq. There was no Iraqi connection to September 11th and Iraq has not threatened war on the US. 9/11 was connected to a private group of sick and dismal people, not Iraq. other then September 11th, there is nothing even moderately close to a considerable “attack on the US”.
