Globalization is a term that relates to businesses operating on a worldwide scale as opposed to just locally. This is possible due to modern transportation and technological advancements. Each country has different resources and skill sets to produce goods and services. The goods and services chosen is typically based on comparative and absolute advantages which determines which countries can produce which goods and services with the least effort. However, the increase in production has negative affects on the environment as a result of the processes and other emissions resulting from production.
Answer:
It depends but is highly probable that the stock price goes down either way
Explanation:
Explanation: A listed company that does not invest at least to keep the market growing pace, could be seen as company without ambition, therefore, more likely to lose market share against competitors, therefore to lose revenue, to lose present value and the stock price falls. Since the stock price of a company is based entirely on the value expectation of the company in the future, informing to the market that Alpha is not going to make any investment next year is the same that declaring company is expected to remain at the same size and operation levels than the current year. This view of stagnation is against the common belief that the market is growing naturally by population growth and the increasing capacities of the technology to unlock a new source of market growth (new product categories, geographies, needs).
Answer:
The Skulls
The location that Skulls should select is:
Alpha Avenue.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Estimated number of persons living in this new chapter house = 30
Fixed Variable Total Cost
Alpha Ave. $5,000 $200 per person $11,000
Beta Blvd. $8,000 $150 per person $12,500
b) The location that Skulls should select must minimize the total cost. The location which meets this criterion is Alpha Avenue, with a total cost of $11,000. This is purely because of the number of persons living in the chapter house. Assuming that this number would increase, then it may be considered economically better to choose the Beta Boulevard instead of the Alpha Avenue.
