Explanation:
There are no options but Licensing as well as Franchising are some of the least riskiest ways to expand internationally.
With Licensing, the company looking to expand simply sells licenses to various companies in different countries giving them the right to use their image. Basically, the company the license is sold to gets access to the seller's intellectual property but then can run their business with a significant degree of autonomy.
Franchising represents another way to expand with little risk. It involves a company giving a license to another company to sell and sometimes produce their products as well as image rights. The company will give the franchisee (company that gets the license) the knowledge and training required to maintain the franchise and in exchange, franchisee pays a fee.
Both of these methods ensure that the name and brand of a company spread internationally whilst making money from it. Risk is minimized because the investment in other countries is low to nothing.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. result from the political bias toward immediate benefits and deferred costs.
Explanation:
While many people run hysterically on the streets begging politicians to act in the face of the threat of climate change, many people, young and old, may be demanding the same type of action, but to fix the unfunded passive systems.
By extending eligibility and increasing the benefits of a pay-per-use system while at the same time having fewer children to finance it, previous generations have left a fearsome financial obligation. Either taxes will increase dramatically for tomorrow's workers, lowering their standard of living, or benefits will fall for tomorrow's retirees, lowering their standard of living. A group will feel very angry.
These problems were anticipated even when politicians were raising payments, but each elected government simply kicked the can and allowed things to continue as usual.
Social security systems and pension funds are actuarially not funded systems. There is no obligation for this generation to have children at the same rate as previous generations. Therefore, when those born in the 1950s reach retirement age in the next century, their stipends will feel more like a burden due to the ranks of non-active members of society that will depend on their contributions to live.
