Answer 1

D. Simple structure
Owner-manager makes all major decisions and monitors all activities while the staff serves as an extension of the managers supervisory authority.

It is a basic organizational design structure where the decision-making and authority is centralized with the owner. The hierarchy has a low number of levels and minimum departmentalization. Communication is quicker and approval is generally faster but the owner's workload is high.
