Explain how the organisational structure, culture and management style interrelate in the business. The organisation structure, management style and culture interrelate a lot in the running of the business. The culture is very much determined on the organisational structure and management style for example there are certain things that just wouldn't go together like a hierarchical structure with a people centred culture. The culture adapts to the organisational style. Evaluate the impact of the organisational structure, management style and culture on the performance of the business. Organisational structure, management style and culture all severely effect the performance of the business I will state why each one of these areas has such a large impact on the performance. Organisational Structure Without the organisational structure the business would be a disaster. No one would know who they were responsible to or for the communication would break down and the control of the managers would not be effective. Organisational structure holds the business together and is an integral part of management and communication. Management Style The management style is very important in the performance of the business as if the manager had a bad style for the employees he is in charge of; their productivity, motivation and work rate would decrease which is why it is

Market research is usually done to investigate products already on the market.In order to carry out the market research investigation, it was necessary for me to check the market

MARKET RESEARCH Market research is usually done to investigate products already on the market. In order to carry out the market research investigation, it was necessary for me to check the market for existing lacto vegetarian products. This was important since I needed to use some of these products to develop my initial ideas. I compared Lacto Vegetarian products from three supermarkets, so that I could assess the prices and quality of there products. The supermarkets I checked were Sainsury, Tesco and Asda .I found that the prices for various lacto vegetarians products at these supermarkets varied. Many items at Asda and Tesco were much cheaper than at Sainsbury. In addition, based on information I obtained from questionnaires completed by lacto vegetarians, I found out that most people are willing to pay between £3-£6 for main course vegetarian meals. Moreover, I realised that most lacto vegetarians prefer pasta dishes instead of Soya products, rice and pulse dishes. On the other hand, I found out that most lacto vegetarians use ready prepared meals either twice or more than twice a week. It should be pointed out that there does not seem to be a wide enough range of lacto vegetarian products available on the market. I carried out telephone interviews with owners of restaurants to find out what types of vegetarian meals are available for Lacto vegetarians. I

Depreciation of fixed assets.

Depreciation Fixed assets are used again and again over a long period of time. During this time the value of many assets falls. This is called depreciation. Each accountants must work how much depreciation to allow each fixed assets. This can then be used in the balance sheet and profit and loss account. The balance sheet will show the book value the book value of assets. This is their original value minus depreciation. Depreciation is shown in the profit and loss account under expenses. This indicates that part of the original value is 'used up' each year. Eventually the entire value of the assets will appear as expenses, when the assets depreciate fully. This process of reducing the original value by the amount of depreciation is known as writing off. There are good reasons why a firm should allow for depreciation each year in its accounts-: * If it dose not, accounts will be inaccurate. If the original value of the assets were placed on the balance sheet this would overstate the value. Each value of the assets falls each year as they depreciate. * Fixed assets generate profit many years. It seems logical to write off the value of the assets over a whole period of time rather than when it is first bought. This matches the benefits from the assets more closely with
