Medium-sized firms are more likely to use a functional or divisional structure. A functional structure organizes the company by departments based on specialized functions, while a divisional structure groups teams based on products, services, or geographical locations. Both structures allow for better management of resources and clearer lines of communication as the company grows. Ultimately, the choice depends on the firm's specific needs and strategic goals.
Are well-established firms or new entrants more likely to develop and or adopt new technologies
Smaller firms that are sole pripiortorships or partnerships that are not incorporated and not public companies are more likely to use bank financing.
Capital structure is basically how the firm chooses to finance its asset, or is the composition of its liabilities. A large way of measuring capital structure is a firms debt to equity ratio - the higher this ratio is, the more leveraged (the more indebted) the firm is.
Adversely, in two ways. As the old saying goes, if you borrow a thousand, you have a problem but if you borrow a million, the bank has a problem! So small firms, which typically will have smaller loan requirements are at the mercy of financial institutions. They may be less credit-worthy, have less collateral that larger firms and so may have to pay a greater premium for borrowing. Small firms are also more likely to have to wait longer before being paid by big firms. As a result, small firms are more likely to require overdraft facilities.
Well-established firms are typically more likely to develop new products due to their existing resources, established market presence, and access to funding for research and development. However, new entrants can be more agile and innovative, often bringing fresh ideas and disruption to the market. While established firms benefit from economies of scale, new entrants may leverage niche markets or emerging trends to gain traction. Ultimately, the likelihood of development depends on the specific context and the firms' strategies.
Why don't more firms use lockouts to break impasses?
To provide an accurate answer, I would need more context about the specific structure you're referring to. Could you please describe the structure or provide additional details?
Two samples are said to homologous, in this context, when they are both very similar in structure and shape and more than likely function.
