Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Departmentalization by client makes sense when service is important and the welfare of the client is of primary interest.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Quality control personnel or control staff do not advise. They control by restraining line authority. They control directly by acting as an agent for a line manager or indirectly through evaluation of procedural compliance and interpretation of policies and reports.
