Answer:

D.

Explanation:

Based on the answers provided it can be said that all of the options are valid rationale for acquisitions except for positioning the firm for a tactical competitive move. This is because acquisitions refers to gaining new people, technology, IP or distributed channels for an organization which allows that organization to grow and perform better, but is not intended to position the firm to make a competitive move towards another firm, that is done mostly through other business strategies.

A type of production that yields customized products or services for each customer is called
victus00 [196]

Answer:

b. Job order production.

Explanation:

Job order production is the process of manufacturing non-standard or unique products for specific customers. Sometimes making a job order production is also called making a work order or making it an individual order, because each order or work is an order placed by the customer. In most cases, custom jobs are created only once. Many manufacturers specialize in mass production of custom products. Buyers come to the manufacturer with a special design or product, and the manufacturer develops and creates an individual product.

A customer-oriented production puts customer satisfaction at the center of each of its business decisions. Customer focus is defined as an approach to sales and customer relations, in which employees focus on helping customers meet their long-term needs and desires. Here, management and employees coordinate their individual and team goals in order to satisfy and retain customers. This contrasts, in particular, with a focus on sales, which is a strategic approach when the needs and desires of a company or seller are evaluated in relation to the client.

Just in Time production is an inventory strategy developed to increase production and productivity. All production processes (in-progress cost) and the type of production taking into consideration the time criteria in order to minimize the associated sub-costs are derived from the Japanese Kanban system. During production, it determines the order of work by considering the production of the next process. This strategy, which states that the order level is reached in the storage process and that the order must be met after this point, provides the most efficient storage volume and production continuity. In short, just in time, the demand is to produce as soon as possible with excellent quality and transport it to the right place at any time.

Job lot production is a production futures contract whose trading volume is below the level required by normal operations. These contracts or lots are available to add liquidity to futures exchanges by allowing smaller "participants" to enter the market.

Process production is a system from production in which a product goes through several processes or stages from production, which will be operated on a more continuous basis; for example, in oil refineries and petrochemical plants, where these processes include liquid or semi-solid materials. In the production of the main product, they say, gasoline, from such in the production process, by-products such as tar or creosote can inevitably arise.

Choose all the scenarios below that would cause a decrease in the supply of labor in the agricultural industry.
Alika [10]

Answer:

  • b. As the population in the United States ages, fewer workers have the physical ability to work in the industry.
  • d. Due to global warming, working conditions on farms have become undesirable for more and more people.
  • e. The adoption of strict immigration laws reduces the number of legal and illegal immigrants in the United States.
  • h. New machinery is replacing workers in the harvesting of crops.

Explanation:

With workers getting older and being unable to be as productive as they used to be, they will have to drop out of industries that require physical strength including farming. This will therefore reduce people working in agriculture.

With global warming having made working in the fields much more harsh, people are avoiding careers that would keep them outdoors including farming which has led to a drop in the labor supply for agriculture.

A significant portion of workers in agriculture are immigrants so when immigration laws limit the number of immigrants coming in, labor supply in agriculture will reduce.

New machinery reduces the need for workers in agriculture so the more they are bought, the less workers are needed. This will therefore directly reduce the number of people working in agriculture.
