Answer:

Process-oriented.

Explanation:

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.

Similarly, a type of layout in the manufacturing process that features departments or other functional groupings in which similar activities are performed is generally referred to as being process-oriented.

One of the main advantages of a process-oriented layout is that it mitigates or reduces difficulties associated with material flow variability for a product.

alex41 [277]

Answer:

269 million

Explanation:

The free cash flow to the firm is 275 million

The interest expense is $60 million

The tax rate is 35%

The net debt of the firm increases by $33 million

Therefore the free cash flow to the equity holders of the firm can be calculated as follows

= 275 million-60 million(1-35/100) + 33 million

= 275 million- 60( 1-0.35) + 33 million

= 275 million- 60(0.65) +33 million

= 275 million - 39 million + 33 million

= 236 million + 33 million

= 269 million

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Given the above information, we will apply the formula below to compute direct labor rate variance.

Direct labor rate variance =

(SR - AR) × AH

Stanadard (Rate) SR = $6

Actual Hour (AR) = $6.25

Actual Hour (AH) = 30,000

Then,

Direct labor rate variance

= ($6 - $6.25) × 30,000

= -$0.25 × 30,000

= -$7,500

= $30,000 Unfavorable

It is unfavourable because the actual rate is more than the budgeted rate.
