One of the defining characteristics of a matrix organizational structure is that it overlays two organizational structures in order to leverage the benefits of both. is the only structure that organizes employees around specific knowledge or other resources. uses self-directed work teams rather than individuals as the basic building block of organizations. is an alliance of several organizations for the purpose of creating a product or serving a client.
Answer:
overlays two organizational structures in order to leverage the benefits of both.
Explanation:
An organizational structure can be defined as the process which typically involves dividing an organization into various functional units.
Basically, the organizational structure comprises of three (3) main dimensions and these are;
I. The vertical dimension: this is typically the decision-making responsibilities (decentralization and centralization).
II. The horizontal dimension: this divides the organization into subunits.
III. Integrating mechanisms: it is based typically on the strategic mechanism that controls the various subunits within an organization.
A functional (departmental) organizational structure is a type of structure used to organize staffs by dividing them into various departments based on their skill set, roles or functions and knowledge.
These departments which are vertically structured may include, finance, IT, sales and marketing, research and development, customer service etc. Also, the various departments are headed by a functional manager who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing, managing and reporting to the executive management.
A matrix organizational structure is a type work structure where reporting relationships between employees are set up as a matrix rather than the conventional hierarchy approach. This simply means, there are two (2) chains of command; employees have dual reporting relationships to both a project and functional manager.
The matrix organizational structure can be classified into three (3) categories, these are;
1. Weak matrix structure.
2. Balanced matrix structure.
3. Strong matrix structure.
One of the defining characteristics of a matrix organizational structure is that it overlays two organizational structures in order to leverage the benefits of both.
Speed World Cycles sells high-performance motorcycles and motocross racers. One of Speed World’s most popular models is the Kazomma 900 dirt bike. During the current year, Speed World Cycles purchased eight of these bikes at the following costs.
Purchase Date Units Purchased Unit Cost Total Cost
July 1 2 $ 4,950 $ 9,900
July 22 3 5,000 15,000
Aug. 3 3 5,100 15,300
8 $ 40,200
On July 28, Speed World Cycles sold four Kazomma 900 dirt bikes to the Vince Wilson racing team. The remaining four bikes remained in inventory at September 30, the end of Speed World’s fiscal year.
Assume that Speed World Cycles uses a perpetual inventory system. (See the data provided.)
Required:
a-1. Compute the cost of goods sold relating to the sale on July 28 and the ending inventory of Kazomma 900 dirt bikes at September 30, using Average cost.
a-2. Compute the cost of goods sold relating to the sale on July 28 and the ending inventory of Kazomma 900 dirt bikes at September 30, using FIFO method.
a-3. Compute the cost of goods sold relating to the sale on July 28 and the ending inventory of Kazomma 900 dirt bikes at September 30, using LIFO method.
b-1. Which of the three cost flow assumptions will result in Speed World Cycles reporting the highest net income for the current year?
b-2. Which of the three cost flow assumptions minimizes the income taxes owed by Speed World Cycles for the year?
b-3. May Speed World Cycles use the cost flow assumption that results in the highest net income for the current year in its financial statements, but use the cost flow assumption that minimizes taxable income for the current year in its income tax return?
Answer:
Speed World Cycles
a. Average Cost FIFO LIFO
Cost of goods sold $20,100 $19,900 $20,300
Ending inventory $20,100 $20,300 $19,900
b-1. FIFO will result in Speed World Cycles reporting the highest net income for the current year, because of the reduced cost of goods sold.
b-2. LIFO minimizes the income taxes owed by Speed World Cycles for the year, because it reduces the income before taxes.
b-3. Yes. However, the cost flow assumptions self-correct in later years, by which time it is not allowed to be jumping from one cost flow assumption to another.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchase Date Units Purchased Unit Cost Total Cost
July 1 2 $ 4,950 $ 9,900
July 22 3 5,000 15,000
Aug. 3 3 5,100 15,300
Total 8 $ 40,200
July 28 Sold 4
September 30 4 (8 - 4)
Average cost = $40,200/8 = $5,025
a-1. Cost of goods sold = $20,100 (4 * $5,025)
Ending inventory = $20,100 (4 * $5,025)
a-2. FIFO:
Ending inventory = $20,300 (3 * $5,100 + 1 * $5,000)
Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available minus cost of ending inventory
= $40,200 - $20,300
= $19,900
a-3 LIFO:
Cost of goods sold = $20,300 (3 * $5,100 + 1 * $5,000)
Ending inventory = Cost of goods available minus cost of goods sold
= = $40,200 - $20,300
= $19,900
Golf Ball Inc. expects earnings to be $10,000 per year in perpetuity if it pays out all of its earnings in dividends. Suppose the firm has an opportunity to invest $1,000 of next year's earnings to upgrade its machinery. It is expected that this upgrade will increase earnings in all future years (starting two years from now) by $140. Assume that Golf Ball's next dividend is one year from now. The required rate of return is 12%.
What is the value of Golf Ball Inc. if it undertakes the upgrade?
Answer: $ 83,333.33
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the value of Golf Ball Inc. if it undertakes the upgrade will be:
It should be noted that the earning will be distributed as dividend if there's no upgrade. Hence, dividend will be $10000.
Since the required rate of return is 12%, then the value of Golf Ball Inc. if it undertakes the upgrade will be:
= Dividend / required rate of return
= 10000 / 12 %
= 10000 / 0.12
= $ 83,333.33
Trainor Corporation purchased equipment on January 1, 2020 at a cost of $500,000. The equipment has an estimated residual value of $50,000 and an estimated life of 5 years. At the end of two years, Trainor reevaluated the useful life of the equipment. Management extended the total useful life an additional 5 years but estimated that the equipment would have no residual value at the end of this time. If the company uses straight-line depreciation, what amount would be recorded as depreciation expense each year, beginning with the third year
Answer:
Depreciation per year $40,000
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense each year, beginning with the third year is shown below:
Purchase cost $500,000
Less residual value -$50,000
Depreciable cost $450,000
Depreciation per year $90,000 ($450,000 ÷ 5 years)
For two years, the depreciation is $180,000
Book value at the end of the 2nd year is $320,000
($500,000 - $180,000)
Depreciation per year $40,000 ($320,000 ÷ 8 years)
Jane was employed by ABC Construction Company as a forklift operator. She noticed that the foreman was taking shortcuts on some of the trenching which caused a dangerous condition that could possibly cause injury to employees who were close to the area of the trench. Jane was not at risk of being hurt by the shortcut in the trenching operation. Jane refused to do the work because of her belief that the trenching work was not being done in a safe manner. Jane was told to punch out and go home. Jane would like to file a claim against her employer.
We will be conducting a classroom debate on this case. Presume you have been hired to represent either the Jane or ABC Construction in this case (students are assigned by their last name see below). Provide the class in your initial response a statement as to why your client’s position is correct. For those representing ABC Construction, explain why the company was within its rights to send Jane home without pay. For those representing the employee Jane, explain why she is justified in refusing to do work in light of a dangerous condition on the worksite.
Answer:
According to the OSHA act, Jane is right in her claim to refuse to work until safe working conditions are provided.
Explanation:
I would be representing Jane and will be following the debate in light of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA) act. According to the OSHA act, employers are responsible for the provision of a safe and healthy workplace to their employees. Failing to do so could lead to a refusal. According to the section of the OSHA act, An employee has the right to refuse to work, if all of the below-mentioned conditions are met:
A real and imminent danger of serious injury or death exists in the workplace. Where possible the employee has asked the employer to eliminate the danger. The employer has failed to eliminate the danger. The employee refuses to work because the employee believes, in good faith, that there is an imminent danger of serious injury or death.As the foreman of ABC construction was using shortcuts in trenching and thus stigmatized the trenching. This could lead to a dangerous situation for the area of the trench leading to its collapse. This is an indication of imminent danger and thus the employee in the area of the trench has a serious threat to his/her life Thus Jane is right in her claim to refuse to work until safe working conditions are provided.

A company with excess capacity must decide between scrapping or reworking units that do not pass inspection. The company has 19,000 defective units that cost $5.40 per unit to manufacture. The units can be a) sold as is for $3.50 each, or b) reworked for $4.60 each and then sold for the full price of $8.90 each. What is the incremental income from selling the units as scrap and reworking and selling the units
Answer:
Incremental income as scrap=$66,500
Incremental income when re-worked= $81,700
Explanation:
Unit contribution from selling as scrap is the equal to the scrap value = 3.50
Unit contribution when reworked and sold as scrap =Selling price - cost of re-work= $8.90-4.60= $4.3
Incremental income as scrap = $3.50×19,000= $66,500
Incremental income when re-worked= $4.3 × 19,000 = $81,700
Incremental income as scrap=$66,500
Incremental income when re-worked= $81,700
8. Imagine a private company decides to sponsor an event in exchange for publicity. Give an example of when a sponsorship could have a negative result for the sponsoring company.
Answer:
Political events like a candidate rally are particularly tricky for companies, and sponsoring them could result in a lot of consumer backlash, specially from the people who are not affiliated to the sponsored politician or political party.
This is why many companies avoid political sponsorships or political statements, because politics is a very divisive issue, and while such an action could earn the company the loyal following of a few, it could also discourage a lot more people from ever buying their products.
The long-run industry supply curve is the graphic representation of the quantity of output that the industry is prepared to a. supply at a single price after the entry and exit of firms is completed. b. supply at different prices after the exit of firms is completed. c. purchase at different prices after the entry and exit of firms is completed. d. supply at different prices after the entry and exit of firms is completed. e. purchase at different prices after the entry of firms is completed.
Answer: d. supply at different prices after the entry and exit of firms is completed.
Explanation:
The industry supply curve simply shows the relationship that exist between the price at which a good is sold and the industry's total output.
The long-run industry supply curve simply refers to the graphic representation of the quantity of output that the industry is prepared to supply at different prices after the entry and exit of firms has been completed.
At the long-run industry supply curve, it depicts the locus of price and the output produced in that industry as each firm aims to maximize profit.
Sam's Dog toys sells a Red toy and a Blue toy. The contribution margin for the Red toy is $5 and for the Blue toy is $10. The expected sales mix is 60% for Red toy and 40% for Blue toy. The total fixed costs amount to $3,000 and the company desires to earn a profit of $500. What is the sale volume in units necessary to reach the desired profit
Answer:
500 units
Explanation:
The computation of the sales units in volume to achieve the desired profit is shown below:
= (Fixed cost + target profit) ÷ (contribution margin per unit)
= ($3,000 + $500) ÷ ($5 × 60% + $10 × 40%)
= $3,500 ÷ 7
= 500 units
Hence, the sales units in volume to achieve the desired profit is 500 units
The above formula should be applied to determine the sales units
hence, the same would be considered

Marigold Corp. purchased a new machine on May 1, 2012 for $558000. At the time of acquisition, the machine was estimated to have a useful life of ten years and an estimated salvage value of $22800. The company has recorded monthly depreciation using the straight-line method. On March 1, 2021, the machine was sold for $71400. What should be the loss recognized from the sale of the machine
Answer:
$18,300 loss
Explanation:
Profit or Loss on sale of an asset is calculated in the asset`s disposal account. Simply stated, Profit or Loss on sale is Cash Receipt from sale less Carrying Amount of an asset.
where,
Accumulated depreciation = $428,160 + 40,140 = $468,300
Carrying Amount = $558000 - $468,300 = $89,700
therefore
Profit or Loss on sale = $71400 - $89,700 = $18,300 loss
An investment firm recommends that a client invest in bonds rated AAA, A, and B. The average yield on AAA bonds is %, on A bonds %, and on B bonds %. The client wants to invest twice as much in AAA bonds as in B bonds. How much should be invested in each type of bond if the total investment is $, and the investor wants an annual return of $ on the three investments.
Answer:
The investor should invest $4,000 in AAA bonds, $3,000 in A bonds, and $2,000 in B bonds.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as all the data in it are omitted. The complete question with the omitted is therefore presented before answering the question as follows:
An investment firm recommends that a client invest in bonds rated AAA, A, and B. The average yield on AAA bonds is 5%, on A bonds 6%, and on B bonds 9%. The client wants to invest twice as much in AAA bonds as in B bonds. How much should be invested in each type of bond under the following conditions? How much should be invested in each type of bond if the total investment is $9,000, and the investor wants an annual return of $560 on the three investments.
The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:
From the question, we have:
AAA = 2B
Total investment is therefore as follows:
2B + A + B = $9,000
3B + A = $9,000 …………………………. (1)
Annual return is also as follows:
(5% * 2B) + (6% * A) + (9% * B) = $560
0.1B + 0.06A + 0.09B = $560
0.1B + 0.09B + 0.06A = $560
0.19B + 0.06A = $560 …………………. (2)
From equation (1), we have:
A = $9,000 – 3B …………………………. (3)
Substituting A from equation (3) into equation (2), we have:
0.19B + 0.06($9,000 – 3B) = $560
0.19B + 540 – 0.18B = $560
0.19B – 0.18B = $560 - $540
0.01B = $20
B = $20 / 0.01
B = $2,000
Since:
AAA = 2B
Therefore, we have:
AAA = 2 * $2,000
AAA = $4,000
Substituting B = $2,000 into equation (3), we have:
A = $9,000 – (3 * $2,000)
A = $9,000 - $6,000
A = $3,000
By implication, we have total investment as follows:
AAA + A + B = $4,000 + $3,000 + $2,000 = $9,000
Therefore, the investor should invest $4,000 in AAA bonds, $3,000 in A bonds, and $2,000 in B bonds.

In its most recent annual report, Appalachian Beverages reported current assets of $54,000 and a current ratio of 1.80. Assume that the following transactions were completed: (1) purchased merchandise for $6,000 on account, and (2) purchased a delivery truck for $10,000, paying $1,000 cash and signing a two-year promissory note for the balance.
Compute the updated current ratio (round answers to 2 decimal places)
Transaction (1) ________________
Transaction (2) ________________
Answer:
Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = 1.6666 rounded off to 1.67
Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = 1.6388 rounded off to 1.64
Explanation:
The current ratio is a measure of liquidity which measures the amount of current assets a business has to pay off each $1 of current liability. It is calculated as follows,
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
We know the initial current ratio and current assets. The initial current liabilities will be,
1.8 = 54000 / Current Liabilities
Current Liabilities = 54000 / 1.8
Current Liabilities = $30000
Transaction 1
The result of transaction 1 will be that the current assets will increase by $6000 as inventory increases and the current liabilities will also increase by $6000 as accounts payable are increasing. The new current ratio will be,
Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = (54000 + 6000) / (30000 + 6000)
Current Ratio - Transaction 1 = 1.6666 rounded off to 1.67
Transaction 2
The result of transaction 2 will be that the current assets will decrease by $1000 as payment for truck which is a fixed asset is made partly by cash and the current liabilities will not increase as the note signed for the remaining payment of the truck is due after 2 years thus it is a non current liability. The new current ratio will be,
Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = (54000 + 6000 -1000) / (30000 + 6000)
Current Ratio - Transaction 2 = 1.6388 rounded off to 1.64

Which conclusion is supported by the information in the graph?
Nuclear power releases less greenhouse gases than other forms of power.
Nuclear power releases an average amount of greenhouse gases.
Nuclear power releases no greenhouse gases.
Nuclear power releases more greenhouse gases than other forms of power.
Answer:
A.Nuclear power releases less greenhouse gases than other forms of power.
Explanation:
correct on edge
Nuclear power releases fewer greenhouse gases than other forms of power is supported by the information in the graph. Thus, option A is correct.
What is electricity production?The oxidation-reduction reactions in MFCs produce electrical energy as the consequence of the release, movement, and reception of electrons from biological processes. comparable emissions across the entire energy chain
The cheapest and greatest values are shown in a graph with bars of the C O 2 comparable emissions for the entire energy chain in grams per kilowatt hour.
That's because nuclear reactors harness fission, an anatomical procedure that separates uranium atoms and produces heat, to make tremendous quantities of energy. Compared to other kinds of energy, nuclear power emits fewer greenhouse emissions.
Therefore, option A is correct.

Carla Vista Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $385,000 (units 5,500), variable costs $250,000, and fixed costs $94,000. Management is considering the following independent courses of action to increase net income. 1. Increase selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or units sold. 2. Reduce variable costs to 56% of sales. Compute the net income to be earned under each alternative. 1. Net Income $ 2. Net Income $ Which course of action will produce the higher net income
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1.
Selling Price = Sales ÷ Units Sold
Current Selling Price = $385,000 ÷ 5500
= $70
Now
Expected Selling Price per unit = $70 + ($70× 10%)
= $77
Now
Expected Sales = 5500 × $77
= $423,500
Now
Net Income = Sales - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost
= $423,500 - $250,000 - $94,000
2.
Sales = $385000
Variable cost = $385,000 × 56% = $215,600
Sales $385,000
Less: variable cost -$215,600
Contribution Margin $169,400
Les: fixed cost -$94,000
Net Income $75,400
As we can see that if there is an increase in Selling Price by 10% so it would produce highest Net Income.
On September 1, Best Company began a contract to provide services to Dildwood Company for six months, with the total $10,800 payment to be made at the end of the six-month period. Equal services are provided each month. The firm uses the account Fees Receivable to reflect amounts due but not yet billed. What proper adjusting entry would Best Company make on October 31, the end of the accounting period (no previous adjustment has been made)

You are the price manager at a restaurant that, for customer relations reasons, can reset its prices (reprint menus) no more than once every two years. Because you want prices that are competitive but cover costs with as much of a profit margin to spare as possible, you require as accurate a prediction of inflation over the next two years as possible.
What would be your best method of predicting inflation?
a. Take the forecast of the economist with the best track record of predicting inflation.
b. Look to the yields of inflation swaps.
c. Consult the University of Michigan survey of inflation expectations among the public.
d. Take the average inflation forecast across many professional economists.
Answer:
My best method of predicting inflation as the price manager at a restaurant is:
b. Look to the yields of inflation swaps.
Explanation:
An inflation swap is a financial derivative contract that transfers inflation risk between two parties. Inflation swap yields can provide a more accurate estimation of the future inflation rates than relying on the predictions of individual economists. This method is widely used by finance professionals to hedge or reduce inflation risk and set long-term prices.
Mackenzie Company has a price of $38 and will issue a dividend of $ 2.00 next year. It has a beta of 1.3, the risk-free rate is 5.2%, and the market risk premium is estimated to be 4.9%. a. Estimate the equity cost of capital for Mackenzie. b. Under the CGDM, at what rate do you need to expect Mackenzie's dividends to grow to get the same equity cost of capital as in part (a)?
Answer and Explanation:
a. The computation of the equity cost of capital is shown below:
As we know that
Expected rate of return = Risk free rate + Risk Premium × Beta
= 5.20% + 4.90% × 1.30
= 11.57%
b. Now the rate at which the dividend should be grow is
Value of the stock = Expected dividend ÷ (cost of equity - growth rate)
$38 = $2 ÷ (11.57% - growth rate)
so, the growth rate is 6.31%
Masterson, Inc., has 4.4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $89.50, and the book value per share is $11.25. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $81 million, a coupon rate of 5.1%, and sells for 96.5% of par. The second issue has a face value of $53 million, a coupon rate of 5.8%, and sells for 106.5% of par. The first issue matures in 25 years, the second in 9 years. The most recent dividend was $4.28 and the dividend growth rate is 5.3%. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semi-annual payments. The tax rate is 21%.
a. What are the company's capital structure weights on a book value basis?
b. What are the company's capital structure weights on a market value basis?
c. Which are more relevant, the book or market value weights?
Answer:
Masterson, Inc.

2. The company's capital structure weights on market value basis are:
Market Value Weights:
Equity = 0.75 or 75%
Debts = 0.25 or 25%
