Porter’s competitive strategies that are appropriate responses respectively

1) Differentiation 2) Focused-differentiation

3) Cost-leadership  4) Cost

<h3>What is porter’s competitive strategies ?</h3>

Using the constraints of its preferred market scope, a company attempts to gain a competitive edge according to Porter's generic tactics. There are three types of generic strategies: focused , differentiating, or lower cost.

One of two strategies for gaining a competitive edge is available to businesses: either decreasing costs in comparison to its rivals or differentiating along consumer dimensions in order to charge a higher price.

Additionally, a business chooses between two possibilities for its scope: focused (supplying its products to certain market segments) or industry-wide.

The decisions made in light of the kind and extent of competitive advantage are represented by the generic strategy. The concept was first presented by Michael Porter in 1980.

Using emails to communicate asynchronously is not a good idea for all of the reasons below except ________.
elixir [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Using emails to communicate asynchronously is not a good idea for all of the reasons below except email threads are organized.

Explanation:

Communication via email is very efficient for exchanging non-instantaneous messages, that is, in those in which information is transmitted that does not require constant exchange, such as a chat or a phone call. Therefore, in the case of asynchronous communication, the exchange of emails can cause some part of the communication to be lost, or the messages may be misinterpreted because they are out of order. This provided that the thread of the messages is not ordered, otherwise this misunderstanding could be avoided.

Part Three: Neighboring WSU dropped their tuition and fees by 14 percent and TTA saw enrollment fall from 8,400 to 7,400. What i
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.85

Explanation:

Given that

Dropped percentage of tuition and fees = 14%

Enrollment fall from 8,400 to 7,400

So, the cross elasticity between the two schools is

= Percentage change in quantity demanded of one good ÷ Percentage change in price of another good

where,

Percentage change in quantity demanded of one good equals to

= ($7,400 - $8,400) ÷ ($8,400)

= -11.9%

And, the percentage change in price of another good is -14%

So, the cross elasticity is

= -11.9% ÷ -14%

= 0.85

We run a delivery service, and we believe our firm has market risk equally between that of UPS and FedEx. We know the following
mixer [17]

Answer:

The answer is "0.85 "

Explanation:

In order to locate a beta of the company, we must find the average beta of unlevered UPS and FedEx and find a levered beta of the company.

      Price   Outstanding shares(Billion)  Market valu of equity(Billion)  Market value of debt(billions)     D/E Ratio

UPS       65                      0.7                   45.5                    5                   0.1099

FedEx    55                   0.25               13.75                        3                   0.2182

Unlevered \ beta= \frac{levered \ beta}{(1+((1- tax rate)\times(\frac{Debt}{Equity})))}

taxes desn't matter , given in the question so, assumed to be 0

   Unlevered \ beta \ for \ UPS= \frac{0.8}{1+(1-0)\times (0.1099)}

                                            = \frac{0.8}{1+(1)\times (0.1099)}\\\\= \frac{0.8}{1+(0.1099)}\\\\= \frac{0.8}{1.1099}\\\\=0.72

Unlevered \ beta \ for \ FedEx= \frac{1.1}{1+(1-0)\times (0.2182)}

                                            = \frac{1.1}{1+(1)\times (0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1+(0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1.2182}\\\\=0.90

Average \ Unlevered \ beta = \frac{0.72+0.90}{2}

                                       = \frac{1.62}{2}\\\\=0.81

\text{levered beta  of  the delivery service firm }= unlevered \ beta \times(1+(1-taxes) \times (\frac{debt}{equity}))

                                                              = 0.81 \times (1+(1-0)\times (\frac{20}{450})\\\\= 0.81 \times (1+(1)\times (0.04)\\\\= 0.81 \times (1+(0.04)\\\\= 0.81 \times (1.04)\\\\=0.85
