1.	In a divisional structure each division is considered to be muti functional why?
Answer» Sometimes when an organisation has more than one product line, it groups its activities on the basis of the product line. Such grouping of activities on the basis of product line is known as divisional structure. Each division in the organisation specialise in their respective product lines. Further, each division has multiple functions under it such as production, sales, marketing, etc. That is, within each division there is a functional structure.For example, a company dealing with varied products have divisional heads such as clothing, shoes and electronics. Now these units will have further functional departments such as, under shoes, there will be resource inputs, advertising, production, sales, etc. Similarly, under clothing also there will be departments of resources, advertising, production and sales. The same will be under the electronics division. Here, each division has to take care about its profit and loss and is responsible for its own work.
