Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a firm has international operations it should choose the most appropriate structure based on the following factors:

  1. extent of international expansion: into how many international regions do we plan to expand our activities.  
  2. the type of strategy: the have to choose between global, multidomestic or international strategy
  3. the degree of product diversity: on how many additional markets will our products compete? regionally or globally

Although 1 and 3 may be similar, there can be significant differences. For example, a US company may want to start selling their products in all of South America (regional product diversity), but it will do it by setting a South American office in Brazil only (international expansion is limited to Brazil only).

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Midyear on July 31st, the Chester Corporation's balance sheet reported:
erastova [34]

Answer:

$76.856 million

Explanation:

As we know that Balance sheet is divided in two portions.

1. Total Assets (Current Assets + Fixed Assets)

2. Total Liabilities and Share Holders' Equity.

and they both should be equal. So we can write from the above information, as:

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Common Stock + Retained Earnings

N.B. We are excluding Cash from our calculation cause we assume that Cash is already been included in Total Assets.

Hence, by putting the values in above equation we can find our Retained Earnings as:

Retained Earnings + $128.230 million + $6.350 million = $211.436 million

Retained Earnings + $134.58 million = $211.436 million

Retained Earnings = $211.436 million - $134.58 million

Retained Earnings = $76.856 million
