Answer:
A strategy to be a low-cost provider of branded footwear is unlikely to result in the company being one of the best-performers in the industry if the company's management team fails to:_______.
5. establish production facilities in all 4 geographic regions, produce and market branded footwear with a 5-star or higher S/Q rating, and achieve global market share leadership in both private-label and branded footwear.
Explanation:
The U.S. market is an important market with global reach and image which a U.S. based company cannot neglect. So, establishing production facilities in all 4 geographic regions will help the company to achieve higher U.S. market share and enhance its domestic and global image.
Market branded footwear companies like Nike, Adidas, Jordan, Reebok, etc., are already competing with about 5 others in the global market for footwear. For a company to belong to their class, it must achieve what they have already achieved, especially 5-star or higher S/Q rating.
The Business Strategy Gaming (BSG) is a rating consumer group that "rates the styling and quality of the footwear of all competitors and assigns a styling-quality or S/Q rating of 0 to 10 stars to each company's branded footwear offerings." According to medium.com, to improve BSG rating, "it is important for each to aim for at least 20% market share in each and every segment. This is because when the business is evenly represented across the geographical regions, it will do well to the overall image of the company."
<span>Most Ski resorts will try to extend the ski season as long as possible. This is because they are only going to earn money if they are open for business. In this case, the ski mountain is closing early in March instead of waiting until a more traditional time of year, probably late spring. While there may be a few reasons why the ski mountain might chose to close early even though there is sufficient snow this year, it is likely that this is a financial decision. If the ski mountain is not able to turn a profit, that is the most likely reason they will shut down early. If it is costing more to the keep the resort open then they can earn by staying open a few more weeks, then it would make sence to just shut down early.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
A) The current order cycle length = 2 weeks
= 2 / 50 year = 0.04 year
B) The current order size
cycle time ( 2 weeks ) * demand per unit time ( 100 bottles )
= 2 * 100 bottles = 200 bottles
C) average inventory
= order size / 2 weeks = 200 / 2 = 100 bottles
D) calculate how much the liquor store spend per year on ordering
first we calculate the number of orders per year = 50 / 2 = 25
next the amount spent per year on ordering = 25 * 10 = 250
E) calculate inventory holding costs per year
= average inventory * cost of holding per bottle
= 100 * 2 = 200
The error of Naomi is that she included the receipts of interest, receipts of dividends, and proceeds from planned sales of plant assets in the cash receipts section. This section would only include the cash sales and collection of accounts receivable with the forecasted sales per month of the company. As a result of this error, the cash receipts would be too high.
