Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: As evidenced by Egypt's pyramids and the assembly lines of Venice, management was around long before the Industrial Revolution, so this statement is false.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: These events happened the same year. 1776 is important in management history because it was the year Adam Smith's groundbreaking book, Wealth of Nations, appeared.
