8. Purchasing can have a significant effect on an organizations total profit. However, the success of a
purchasing function relies on competent buyers and a purchasing manager who employs systematic
purchasing methods and implements technological advances. If an organizations profitability is in
jeopardy, the efficiency and skill of its purchasing function may determine whether it operates at a
profit or at a loss. As such, the purchasing function bears a significant amount of the responsibility for an
organizations profit, and, whenever an organization strives to produce profit, it will expend the effort
required to hire capable and qualified buyers as well as a knowledgeable, intelligent purchasing
manager. From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that:
A. If an organizations profitability is not in jeopardy then the competence of its purchasing function will
not determine whether it operates at a profit or at a loss.
B. There are at least some purchasing functions that are not responsible for a significant amount of an
organizations profit.
C. A non-purchasing function will not bear significant responsibility for the profit of an organization.
D. An organization whose profitability is in jeopardy may depend on the efficiency and skill of its
purchasing function to determine whether it operates at a profit or at a loss.

9. There are three central organizational functions to every product development project: marketing,
design, and manufacturing. The marketing function consists of the interactions between the
organization and the customers, which includes setting target prices and overseeing the launch and
promotion of a new product. The design function determines the physical form of the product. This
includes the engineering design, such as mechanical and electrical issues, as well as the industrial design,
which includes aesthetics and user interfaces. The manufacturing function is responsible for designing

and operating the system for producing the product. This function includes purchasing, distribution, and
installation.
From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that:
A. An organizational function determines the physical form of a product if and only if it addresses
mechanical and electrical issues.
B. There are product development projects in which the physical form of the product need not be
determined before target prices are set.
C. Whenever an organization is determining the physical form of a developing product, it is performing a
design function.
D. There are at least some product development projects in which the marketing function does not set
target prices or launch and promote the product.

10. If a manager supervises employees, he or she has several specific rights that are acquired from the
managerial rank. One of these rights is authority. A manager with authority has the right to give orders
to subordinates. This authority relates to the position itself and has nothing to do with the personal
characteristics of the individual manager. When a position of authority is vacated, the person who left
the position no longer has authority. The authority remains with the position and the new manager.
From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that:
A. There are individual instances in which authority rests to a significant extent on the personal
characteristics of a manager.
B. All managers who supervise employees have the right to authority.
C. If an individual no longer has authority, then he or she recently vacated a managerial position that
involved employee supervision.
D. An individual who has a right to authority is often not the incumbent of a managerial position in
charge of supervising employees.

11. In order for an organization to survive, it must satisfy several different groups of stakeholders.
Stakeholders typically include stockholders, employees, customers, and society in general.
Unfortunately, the desires of stakeholder groups are often in conflict. In the long run, the desires of all
of these groups must be satisfied adequately by the organization, or none of them will be satisfied at all.
This is because any one of these groups is strong enough to cause the downfall of the organization if
their desires are not satisfied. When an organization operates within a single country, balancing the
Page 4 of 7

competing desires of stakeholder groups is sometimes difficult. For those organizations that operate
across multiple countries, where dominant interests often vary widely, balancing these competing
desires is always difficult. From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that:
A. If an organization experiences difficulty balancing the competing desires of stakeholder groups then it
is almost certain that the organization operates across multiple countries.
B. No organization that is able to survive can do so without satisfying the desires of several different
stakeholder groups.
C. There are at least some organizations that operate across multiple countries but do not experience
difficulty balancing the competing desires of stakeholder groups.
D. No organization that satisfies the desires of all its stakeholders will fail to survive.

12. Mechanization is defined as the process of using machines to perform work that had previously been
performed by people. Automation, which is an extension of mechanization, is defined as the process of
performing mechanical operations with minimal or no human involvement. Automation is commonly
used whenever an organization faces difficulties producing a product of a consistent quality, as well as
when work is monotonous or unsafe for employees. Automation systems can be either hard or soft. Soft
automation systems are adaptable, thus allowing them to perform several different functions. Hard
automation systems have each machine perform one specific function. As a result, these systems are
less adaptable than soft automation systems. From the information given above, it can be validly
concluded that:
A. There are at least some automated systems that require considerable human involvement to perform
mechanical operations
B. If an organization can consistently produce a high quality product, it is unlikely that it will use an
automated system.
C. No hard automation system is more adaptable than a soft automation system.
D. Any organization that uses an automated system has found its work to be monotonous or unsafe for
employees.
