Describe the current global strategy and provide evidence about how the firm’s resources and competencies support the pressures regarding costs and local responsiveness. Describe entry modes they have usually used, and whether the modes are appropriate for the given strategy is described below
Explanation:
Global Strategy’ is a shortened term that covers three areas: global, multinational and international strategies. Essentially, these three areas refer to those strategies designed to enable an organisation to achieve its objective of international expansion.
In developing ‘global strategy’, it is useful to distinguish between three forms of international expansion that arise from a company’s resources, capabilities and current international position.
Implications of the three definitions within global strategy:
International strategy: the organisation’s objectives relate primarily to the home market.
Multinational strategy: the organisation is involved in a number of markets beyond its home country. But it needs distinctive strategies for each of these markets because customer demand and, perhaps competition, are different in each country. Importantly, competitive advantage is determined separately for each country.
Global strategy: the organisation treats the world as largely one market and one source of supply with little local variation. Importantly, competitive advantage is developed largely on a global basis.
Answer:
B) False
Explanation:
That would be a monopoly (only one supplier).
An oligopoly is a market where there are very few suppliers, and competition is very limited since the barriers to entry are very significant.
For example, the automobile industry is an oligopoly. There are only a few car manufacturers in the world, and they all are very large corporations. It costs hundreds of millions of dollars to introduce a new car model, and every time that happens, the corporations must carry on expensive advertising and promotional campaigns.
Answer:
Current stock price = $24.23
Explanation:
Stock price under Discounted Model:
P0 = D1 \div(Ke - g)
P0 = Current Market price of the share
g = Growth rate = 5.0%
Ke = Cost of equity = 11.5% p.a
D1 = Expected dividend = $1.50 (1 + 0.05)= $1.575
P0 = $1.575 / (11.50% - 5.0%)
Current stock price = $24.23
