Your firm has been a leader in several lines of fast-moving consumer goods. The firm has been following a localization strategy.

Your products have been distributed in a number of foreign markets and regions, and they are distinct enough in local markets to respond to national tastes and preferences. Competition, however, has become more intense, with many competitors using lower cost structures to undercut your prices and still satisfy your customers. The firm must decide what kind of strategy it needs to follow to meet the demands of the local markets as well as the increased competitive pressures on cost.
a. Pressures for local responsiveness may make it difficult to leverage skills and products associated with a firm's core competencies from one country to another.
b. Localization strategy is the most appropriate strategy when there are substantial differences across nations with regard to consumer tastes and preferences, and where cost pressures are not too intense.
c. Transnational strategy is the most appropriate strategy when the firm simultaneously faces strong pressures for both cost reductions and local responsiveness.
d. A firm facing low pressures for local responsiveness and few pressures to contain costs might best pursue a(n) international strategy.
e. Markets are dynamic, and any firm will face competition. In time, international and localization strategies tend to become less viable, and managers need to orient their companies toward either a global standardization or transnational strategy.

Natalie owns a condominium near Cocoa Beach in Florida. This year, she incurs the following expenses in connection with her cond
kumpel [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Natalie's Gross Income = $10,000

75 + 35 = 110 days

Expenses:

Insurance Expense (75/110) x 1000                 682

Advertising Expense                                        500

Mortgage Interest (75/110) x 3500                  2386

Property Taxes (75/110) x 900                         614

Repairs and Maintenance (75/110) x 650        443

Utilities    (75/110) x 950                                   648

Depreciation (75/110) x 8500                          5795

Until the depreciation expenses the total expenses accumulate to  5273. If we deduct that with the gross income total we get 4727. We can only deduct 4727 from the total portion of 5795 depreciation expense.

Therefore, for AGI deductions we take total of (5273 + 4727) = $10,000

For Natalie's personal deduction of AGI

Mortgage interest (35/110) x 3500                    1114

Property taxes (35/110) x 900                            286

Total personal deduction for AGI                    $1400

horrorfan [7]

Explanation:

Stress in the work environment can occur due to several factors, such as excessive pressure, long working hours, conflicts with colleagues and superiors, inadequate salary, insecurity, etc.

It is important for organizations to adopt a posture that focuses on the needs of employees, so that they are able to measure the level of job satisfaction and implement measures that reduce stress factors in the workplace.

It is also important that the worker seeks to manage his stress through small attitudes, such as establishing a list of tasks, managing his time, seeking to have a better relationship with co-workers, avoiding procrastination, etc.
