a) true
b) false

Managers should be held responsible for only those cost, revenues, or assets over which they have substantial control should be considered as a

FALSE Statement.

Explanation:

In order to understand this statement comprehensively, we need to know the following two views.

The Omnipotent View

The Symbolic View

The Omnipotent view

This view defines and makes managers wholly responsible for all the success and losses of an organisation. This view referred managers as completely liable for all the operations, causes and their resulting effects within an organisation. No matter what, they are held liable for the consequences. For example, when a football team performs, coaches and managers are held liable and they come under radar in case of bad performances.

The symbolic View

This view says that managers make decisions in the best interest of the firm on the base of available resources, assets, costs and revenues but there are certain things which are beyond their control, they have very less or little control over certain things like economy, political environment – rules and regulations, competitors actions, market conditions, having control over technology etc.

Consequently, mangers cannot be held completely responsible; they have limited impact and effect over the organisational performance.
