When Moon Star Products Inc. planned to start its operations in United Cadvia, an emerging nation, it realized that it will have

to set up its own distribution channels. This would be a risky and an expensive strategic move. The company had an option of hiring a small supply chain management company, Gold Logistics Inc., to reach its ultimate customers. However, this would require Gold Logistics to make huge investments, which would be of no use to it if Moon Star decided to exit the market. Thus, to gain Gold Logistics's confidence, Moon Star purchased 40 percent of the stock of Gold Logistics. What does this scenario best illustrate?
a. Equity alliance
b. Backward vertical integration
c. Farward vertical integration
d. None of the above

<h3><u>How Do Exports Work?</u></h3>

Exports are products and services made in one nation and offered to customers in another. Imports and exports together make up global trade.

Because they give people and businesses access to a larger market for their products, exports are crucial to modern economies. Fostering economic commerce, and boosting exports and imports for the advantage of all trading parties, is one of the primary goals of diplomacy and foreign policy between countries.

<u>Benefits of Exporting for Businesses</u>

If the goods open up new markets or widen existing ones, exports can boost sales and profits and may even offer the chance to gain a sizeable portion of the worldwide market. Exporting businesses diversify their markets to reduce business risk.

Cotrone Beverages makes energy drinks in three flavors: Original, Strawberry, and Orange. Company is currently operating at 75 p
irina [24]

Relevant Information:

The relevant information is as under:

Segmented income statements appear as follows:

Product                                    Original  Strawberry  Orange

Sales                                     65,200   85,600          102,400

Variable costs                     (44,000)   (77,200)  (80,200)

Contribution margin              21,200     8,400    22,200

Fixed costs allocated                (9,400)    (12,000)   (14,200)

Operating profit (loss)       11,800      (3,600)      8,000  

Answer:

The product not be closed because it is generating net cash flows of ($3,060), which will generate loss for the organization. The better option would be to not abandoning the manufacturing of Strawberry.

Explanation:

Relevant costing says that any savings or losses are relevant if it satisfy following three conditions:

  1. Is a cash flow.
  2. Future related (Not arising due to Past bindings).
  3. Differential or Incremental in nature.

Its crystal clear that any inflows and outflows that are considered would be cash in nature, not related to past events it must be arising as a consequence of taking the decision whose consequences are we considering now, I mean it must arise in future due to the decision made which are considering. The last condition is the concept of differential that lies in the heart of relevant costing and is easily understood by following the following steps:

Step 1: What are the losses or savings if we don't make decision?

Step 2: What are the losses or savings if we make the decision?

Step 3: The difference between step one and two is differential or incremental cost.

Here we learned that relevant cost arises if we take the decision (closing manufacturing of Strawberry), and it doesn't arises if we don't take the decision (not abandoning manufacturing of  Strawberry).

Relevant costs associated with the decision are as under:

                                                    Step 1              Step 2        Step 3

                                            Make Decision    If we Don't Differential

Revenue loss                             (85,600)               -          (85,600)

Variable Costs Savings              77,200                 -            77,200

Fixed costs Savings (W1)             5340                   -              5340

Operating Profit                                                                   (3,060)

Working1: Fixed costs Savings

Total Fixed costs =21400+12000+14200 = $35,600

The saving is 15% of the total fixed cost and is as under:

Fixed costs Savings = $35,600 * 15% = $5340
