The question is incomplete:

You are the new manager in an Indian office. You ask one of your supervisors to move a desk and place it in another corner of the office. The next day you notice it has not yet been done. Why?

-The supervisor was offended you asked him/her and refused to do anything about it

-The supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself

-Because things get done slowly in India

Answer:

-The supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself

Explanation:

India is a society with a high power distance. This means that there is hierarchy, inequality and employees expect directions. Also, decisions tend to be centralized and people in high positions expect privileges and a certain status. Because of that, in this situation the reason for not moving the desk from the options given is that the supervisor could not find a labourer to move it and would not do so him/herself as he/she considers that it is not part of the job as he/she has a higher position that doesn't involve to do that.

The other options are not right as the supervisor would not be offended a this is a culture in which people expect to receive orders and it is not related to things getting done slowly there.

scoray [572]

Answer:

The difference is 22.34 days which results in late payments

Explanation:

For computing the DSO we have to compute the accounts receivable turnover ratio which is shown below:

Accounts receivable turnover ratio  = Credit sales ÷ average accounts receivable

= $325,000 ÷ $60,000

= 5.42 times

and the average collection period in days = Total number of days in a year ÷ accounts receivable turnover ratio

= 365 days ÷ 5.42 times

= 67.34 days

Actual credit period is given is 45 days

But the resulted days are 67.34 days

So, the difference is 22.34 days which results in late payments

Shoe Shine is a local retail shoe store located on the north side of Centerville. Annual demand for a popular sandal is 500 pair
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The optimal order will be of 100 units

Explanation:

We will solve this using the EOQ (economic order quantity) formula:

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}

D = annual demand 500 units

S= setup cost = ordering cost = 50.00 dollars

H= Holding Cost = 5.00 dollars

Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 500 times 50}{5}}

EOQ = 100

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is A.

<u>$14.38 per direct labor-hour</u>

Explanation:

If the budgeted direct labor time for December is 8,000 hours, then total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour is (rounded):

Total budgeted factory overhead for December= Variable Factory Overhead rate per direct labor hour *  budgeted direct labor time for December + Fixed Factory Overhead per month

Total budgeted factory overhead for December = 5*8000 + 75000

Total budgeted factory overhead for December = $ 115,000

Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = Total budgeted factory overhead for December/budgeted direct labor time for December

Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = 115000/8000

Total budgeted factory overhead per direct labor hour = 14.38
