Answer:

B. Joint venture

On a Joint venture, Axiom will have partner which share the risk and cost of the project.

Also this partners can be local companies with knowledge ofthe Chinese market.

Axiom will have limited liability until his contribution.

It will generate new jobs in the country and include local business persons, this will be politically acceptable

This option has everything Axiom is looking for.

Explanation:

<em>A.- if Axiom uses a subsidiary</em> it will not have access to local knowledge. Also it will be the same entity, so it won't be sharing the cost.

It won't be what the company need

<em>C.- if exporting</em> it will not be expanding inside the country. Also it will not provide local knowledge or share the cost with a third party. The goverment may create additional tariff or market cuota or any other barrier to protect national companies.

It won't be what the company need

<em>E.- Licensing: </em>will be selling the brand name or product to a third party. It will not be part of the revenue stream entirely. A third party with knowledge of the market will exploit the benefit.

<em>D. Greenfield investments: </em>The company will establishes operations on the country. It will have a high cost, but will get the goverment approval for the jobs created in China. However it will be Axiom who takes the cost and risk for the entire investment.

These two are partially suitable, but with some backwards

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

a. $2953.9

b. $2813.24

Explanation:

To calculate the future value of an annuity paid at the beginning of the period, you have:

VF = A\left[\frac{(1+i)^{n+1} - (1+i)}{i}\right] = 100\left[\frac{(1.05)^{19} - (1.05)}{0.05}\right] = 2953.9

To calculate the future value of an annuity paid at the end of the period, you have:

VF = A\left[\frac{(1+i)^{n} - 1)}{i}\right] = 100\left[\frac{(1.05)^{18} - 1)}{0.05}\right] = 2813.24

Mr. Knox will have $2953.9 at the end of the 18 years, if he pays $100 at the beginning of each year. On teh other hand, Mr Knox will have $2813.24 at the end of the 18 years, if he pays $100 at the end of each year.

creativ13 [48]

Question Completion:

Figures in thousands (000):

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round

Dug             Core                1200

Dune     Core                1450

Beetle     Core                1040

Bat             Core                1050

New     Core                100

Adam     Core               1200

Answer:

Chester Company

Competitive Intelligence Report:

Based on the increased 10% capacity, the industry can produce 6,644 units.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Product Segment    Capacity Next Round    Increased Capacity (1.1)

Dug             Core                1,200                    1,320

Dune     Core                1,450                    1,595

Beetle     Core                1,040                     1,144

Bat             Core                1,050                    1,155

New     Core                   100                        110

Adam     Core               1,200                    1,320

Total                                     6,040                   6,644

b) Each of the core segment products can be increased by the increased capacity factor of 1.10 (1 + i), where "i" is the rate of capacity increase.  Alternatively, the total capacity in the current period can be increased by the increased capacity factor.  Either way, produces the same result of an increased capacity of 6,644 units that the industry can produce.  The result also shows that the options provided in the question are not correct.  They must have been based on other assumptions.
