Answer to Question 1

March and Simon's administrative decision-making model is descriptive; it explains how people actually make decisions in organizations. March and Simon stress that incomplete information and the decision maker's cognitive abilities and psychological makeup affect decision making. Consequently, decision makers often choose satisfactory, not optimal solutions.

According to the model, decision makers choose how to respond to opportunities and problems on the basis of a simplified and approximate account of the situationthe decision maker's definition of it, in other words. Decision makers do not consider all information relevant to a problem or opportunity; neither do they consider all possible alternatives and their consequences.

Answer to Question 2

B
