...do not want to see a summary of each force. State the important force that supports your answer. FORMAT All case assignments must follow a simple memorandum format with the following sections: 1. The paragraph, a short one, must contain a sentence must stating the response to the required topic. For example, if a recommendation is required, the sentence might start with “I recommend . . .” or “This is to recommend that . . .” If a question is given, the sentence must respond to the question directly. The paragraph should also contain a summary of the justification for the response. 2. The next paragraph or two should contain the justification for the response along with supporting data or information. The latter would be a reference to a concept in Strategic Management and should include facts and information in the case.

...This set of 28 questions, taken from prior examinations, covers topics in Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The purpose of sample multiple choice questions is to acquaint you with the style and substance of typical exam questions over this material. Please be aware that: 1. multiple choice format questions are only one of many resources available to prepare for testing events – reading textbook chapters and working through chapter examples, studying the end-of-chapter review problem and accompanying solution, and reviewing assigned homework items and the published solutions may be more powerful methods to increase your understanding of the topics covered in the course. 2. the exam questions used this quarter will be similar but different from these example questions – understanding the main concepts in each chapter is critical to success on the testing events; remembering a sample question may be of some help but the format of a question on the same topic often differs rendering memory a distant second choice to understanding. The Questions: 6. Scheney Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company's work in process inventory on March 31 consisted of 20,000 units. The units in the ending work in process inventory were 100% complete with respect to materials and 70% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the cost per equivalent unit for March was $2.50 for materials and $4.75 for labor and overhead, the total cost in the...

...1.What should be the format and final form of the store manager's job description? In my opinion, there is no format or final form of the job description. But the store manager’s job description should include the job identification, job summary, responsibilities and duties, authority of incumbent, the standards of performance, working conditions and Job specifications. I recommend that Jennifer include standards of of performance section in job description. In this, the standards that the employee expected to be achieved under each job description’s main duties and responsibilities, is listed. It will also address the problem of employees such as not understanding the company policies, procedures, and expectations. In addition I recommend that Jennifer should take a competency-based approach instead. This competency based approach describes the job in terms of the measurable, observable, behavioral competencies that an employee who perform the job must have. The competency analysis is more worker focused. This is due to it focuses more on ‘how’ the worker meets the job’s objective or actually accomplishes the work. 4. What in your opinion, should the store manager,s job description look like and contain? In my opinion the store manager’s job description should look like: Job Description of store manager Job Title: Store manager| Company name: Carter Cleaning Company| Job Type: Manager| Location: Allista Towers| Division: Management Occupations| Non/Residence Status: Both|...
