1Management is best described as a process of:
A.Getting work done through others to achieve organisational goals effectively and efficiently
B.Only maximising sales revenue without regard to costs
C.Recording day-to-day cash receipts and payments only
D.Replacing all human effort with machines
Explanation: Management is the process of getting things done with and through people so that organisational goals are achieved effectively (doing the right things) and efficiently (doing things right / with minimum waste of resources).
2In management, 'efficiency' primarily means:
A.Completing only the most popular tasks first
B.Avoiding all planning activities
C.Doing the right work regardless of resource use
D.Doing the work correctly with minimum waste of resources
Explanation: Efficiency refers to achieving goals with the least possible cost and waste of resources (time, money, materials, effort). Effectiveness is about achieving the right goals; efficiency is about resource thrift while doing so.
3Which of the following is NOT generally treated as an objective of management?
A.Organisational objectives such as survival, profit, and growth
B.Social objectives such as quality products and fair practices
C.Personal objectives of employees such as competitive pay and growth
D.Eliminating all competition from the industry by any means
Explanation: Management balances organisational, social, and personal objectives. Unethical elimination of competition 'by any means' is not a legitimate management objective taught in Intermediate Business Studies.
4Top-level management is primarily responsible for:
A.Only packing finished goods on the shop floor
B.Setting overall organisational goals, policies, and long-term strategies
C.Only supervising one machine operator’s daily output
D.Only typing routine office correspondence
Explanation: Top management (e.g., board, CEO, managing director) decides the organisation’s overall objectives, policies, and strategies and integrates major functions. Middle management interprets plans; lower/supervisory management oversees day-to-day operations.
5Which statement correctly distinguishes management as an art and as a science?
A.Management has no principles at all, so it is only an art
B.Management is only a pure science like physics with unchanging laboratory laws
C.Management is neither art nor science under any description
D.Management is a science because it uses systematised knowledge and principles, and an art because managers apply skill and creativity in practice
Explanation: Management is often called both a science and an art: it rests on organised knowledge and principles (science aspect) that managers must apply with personal skill, judgment, and creativity (art aspect). It is not a pure exact science like physics.
6Middle-level management mainly links:
A.Customers directly with retail consumers only
B.Only government ministries with foreign embassies
C.Top management’s plans with lower-level supervisors and operational staff
D.Shareholders only with stock brokers
Explanation: Middle managers (e.g., department heads, plant managers) interpret top-level policies, make departmental plans, and coordinate with lower-level managers who execute operations.
7Which feature indicates that management is a continuous process?
A.Managers perform planning, organising, staffing, directing, and controlling as ongoing, interrelated functions
B.Management ends permanently once a single plan is written
C.Only one function of management is ever performed in an organisation
D.Management activities occur only on the day of annual closing
Explanation: Management is continuous and dynamic: managers repeatedly plan, organise, staff, direct, and control as conditions change. It does not stop after writing one plan or after year-end.
8Management is said to be a group activity because:
A.Only one person ever works in any organisation
B.It requires coordinated efforts of people working together toward common goals
C.It involves only mechanical machines without human interaction
D.It excludes teamwork by definition
Explanation: Organisational goals are achieved through the cooperative, coordinated efforts of many people. Management organises and directs that group activity toward shared objectives.
9Henri Fayol is best known in management for proposing:
A.Fourteen principles of management based largely on administrative experience
B.The modern Indian Income-tax Act
C.Only the structure of the United Nations
D.The periodic table of chemical elements
Explanation: Henri Fayol (often called the father of general management) proposed fourteen principles of management from administrative experience, covering areas such as division of work, authority and responsibility, unity of command, scalar chain, and esprit de corps.
10Fayol’s principle of 'Unity of Command' means that:
A.An employee should receive orders from only one superior for a given activity
B.Every employee must report to all managers in the organisation at once
C.There should be no superior at all in any organisation
D.Workers should ignore all instructions from managers
Explanation: Unity of command states that an employee should receive orders from one superior only regarding a given activity, avoiding conflicting instructions and dual subordination.
