Answer 1

Question 1. Answer: Option D. Organization chart

Explanation:

Organization chart defines the interrelationship between positions in an organization. It shows the formal authority relationship between superiors and subordinates at various levels. Hence the organization chart depicts the positions in the firm and how they are arranged. Division of labor refers to the division of work and span of control refers to the number of subordinates reporting to a supervisor. Departmentalization refers to division of organization into different departments and value chain depicts the processes organization performs to add value. Hence the answer is option D.

Question 5. Answer: Option c; procedures that link the various parts of the organization to achieve the organization’s overall mission.

Explanation: Coordination refers to the collaboration between different parts of the organization to achieve its mission. Hence it refers to procedures that link the various parts of the organization to achieve the organization’s overall mission and the answer is option C. Employee training, need for specific tasks in the functional fields, performance of specific tasks by specific people and the way the positions in the firm are evaluated do not mean coordination because these processes can be done independently and need not require collaboration with others to perform the task.
