Answer:

Information technology achitecture can be defined as a detailed description of the various information processing assets that is needed to achieve business objectives.

Explanation:

In our world today, businesses thrive on information. Information technology achitecture focuses on three basic tiers in an organization which are the server, middleware and client.

At PepsiAmericas, the next Gen initiative convinced executives that they needed to drive value from technology intiatives. Technology provided a common plartform for standardized business processes.

The first initiative by Johnsen created an IT governance board which included the ceo Robert pohland and the coo ken keiser.

Pepsi Americas recognised the achitectural and structural difference between each of its subsidiaries and itself.

On the otherhand, Operational excellence can be defined as the provision of reliable products and services to customers at competitive prices. whereas customer intimacy is targeting and segmenting markets and offers matching exactly to the demands of the niche.

Operational excellence means to strip off operational cost so as to deliver competitive price.

Pepsi Americas employees realised that driver turnover were no longer important. and that recessions would require that operations would change. Therefore, pepsiAmericas had to reevaluate their operations as demand was reducing and had to find a way not to waste resources.

According to the Fisher equation, if the expected inflation rate is less than the actual inflation rate, then the actual rate of
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

D. higher than the equilibrium interest rate.

Explanation:

The Fisher equation at equilibrium ; i = r + τe helps you to answer this question whereby;

i = nominal interest rate

r = real interest rate

τe = expected inflation rate

If we re-write it beginning with real interest rate ; r = i - τe .

So, considering the above equation, if the <em>actual</em> inflation rate turns out to be lower than <em>expected</em> , we will have a lower τe and the difference  (i - τe) will be bigger making the real interest rate higher than equilibrium.

b. Providing tax breaks and patents for firms that pursue research and development in health and sciences.

c. Protecting property rights and enforce contracts.

<u>Explanation</u>:

A foreign portfolio investment is the investment made by a foreigner in the form of purchase in country’s stock and bond markets or deposit of money in bank.

Foreign portfolio investment is important because it gives high risk-adjustment return to the investors. The investors get the opportunity to engage in international diversification of portfolio assets.

The growth of the developing countries can be increased by enforcing contracts and providing patents for the firms that deal with research and development in health and sciences.
