Question

The board and top managers of a nonprofit organization have considerable latitude to decide how they will spend the organization’s resources because:________

a. they are a private foundation.
b. the organization does not have shareholders.
c. they are typically small organizations.
d. they receive contributions and government grants.
d. all monies earned are pumped back into the business.

Answer 1

b. the organization does not have shareholders.

Step-by-step explanation:

A nonprofit organization does not have any owners, therefore, there is no one that can control, approve or disapprove the decisions made by the board and top management. How each nonprofit is organized depends on the state where it has been formed, but generally speaking, since there is no one to control, the board and managers have a lot of decision power.
