Sterling, Inc. is a manufacturer of state-of-the-art computers. For the past ten years, Sterling has acquired all of its microch

ips from NoBugs Corporation, the only producer of chips meeting Sterling's high specifications. The relationship has been mutually profitable. Sterling could not have built its reputation as an industry leader without NoBugs's reliable and consistently high-quality products; Sterling's business has enabled NoBugs to grow rapidly while providing its investors with an attractive rate of return.
Some months ago, several of Sterling's computers exploded shortly after installation. Upon investigation, Sterling discovered that tiny imperfections in NoBugs's microchips had aggravated a dormant design defect in the computers, causing the explosions. Analysis of the chips indicated that they were indeed below specifications and that the imperfections were caused by a slight miscalibration of NoBugs's encoding equipment. NoBugs recalibrated the equipment and promptly resumed production of perfect chips.

Sterling's losses from the explosions - lost profits, out-of-pocket costs associated with compensating customers for the explosions, and injury to business reputation - are estimated to exceed $20 million. Sterling and NoBugs disagree on the amount of the loss for which NoBugs should be responsible. Sterling has a strong legal case for breach of contract against NoBugs. Sterling's CEO is considering a lawsuit. She asks you to prepare a report discussing litigation strategy and the advantages and disadvantages of litigation; and discussing pretrial planning should the company opt for litigation.

Answer:

Litigation strategy: Supplier N produces imperfect products, causing damage in business and market reputation of Company S. It is a clear case of negligence of N. The supplier should have more careful before supplying goods. The material should be checked before delivery. If it is not done, at least the company should be informed that the material is sent unchecked, so that the company can do the checking.

The supplier has done nothing, which creates a huge loss to the company. The business and relationship between the company and the supplier is not new. It is almost ten year

The sales manager for Tetsu, Inc., a Japanese maker of electronic components has just returned from the very price-sensitive USA
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Accept the USA distributor demand. It is even better for Tetsu compared to Japan.

Explanation:

Considering both the distributors in Japan and the U.S. request a 20% margin for the retails of Tetsu's devices, accepting the offer of the U.S. company represents a good deal. Businesses are not handled the same in Japan and the U.S. Both countries have different policies. Tetsu must consider that the U.S. is a bigger market and that its devices are imported in the U.S., implying there could be tariffs imposed. Tough, if the U.S. distributor requests the same margin a Japanese distributor does to start businesses, <em>the deal will be in Tetsu's favor</em>.
