  • 第1题:

    5 The directors of Blaina Packaging Co (BPC), a well-established manufacturer of cardboard boxes, are currently

    considering whether to enter the cardboard tube market. Cardboard tubes are purchased by customers whose

    products are wound around tubes of various sizes ranging from large tubes on which carpets are wound, to small

    tubes around which films and paper products are wound. The cardboard tubes are usually purchased in very large

    quantities by customers. On average, the cardboard tubes comprise between 1% and 2% of the total cost of the

    customers’ finished product.

    The directors have gathered the following information:

    (1) The cardboard tubes are manufactured on machines which vary in size and speed. The lowest cost machine is

    priced at $30,000 and requires only one operative for its operation. A one-day training course is required in order

    that an unskilled person can then operate such a machine in an efficient and effective manner.

    (2) The cardboard tubes are made from specially formulated paper which, at times during recent years, has been in

    short supply.

    (3) At present, four major manufacturers of cardboard tubes have an aggregate market share of 80%. The current

    market leader has a 26% market share. The market shares of the other three major manufacturers, one of which

    is JOL Co, are equal in size. The product ranges offered by the four major manufacturers are similar in terms of

    size and quality. The market has grown by 2% per annum during recent years.

    (4) A recent report on the activities of a foreign-based multinational company revealed that consideration was being

    given to expanding operations in their packaging division overseas. The division possesses large-scale automated

    machinery for the manufacture of cardboard tubes of any size.

    (5) Another company, Plastic Tubes Co (PTC) produces a narrow, but increasing, range of plastic tubes which are

    capable of housing small products such as film and paper-based products. At present, these tubes are on average

    30% more expensive than the equivalent sized cardboard tubes sold in the marketplace.

    Required:

    (a) Using Porter’s five forces model, assess the attractiveness of the option to enter the market for cardboard

    tubes as a performance improvement strategy for BPC. (10 marks)


    正确答案:
    (a) In order to assess the attractiveness of the option to enter the market for spirally-wound paper tubes, the directors of BPC
    could make use of Michael Porter’s ‘five forces model’.
    In applying this model to the given scenario one might conclude that the relatively low cost of the machine together with the
    fact that an unskilled person would only require one day’s training in order to be able to operate a machine, constitute
    relatively low costs of entry to the market. Therefore one might reasonably conclude that the threat of new entrants might be
    high. This is especially the case where the market is highly fragmented.
    The fact that products are usually purchased in very large quantities by customers together with the fact that there is little real
    difference between the products of alternative suppliers suggests that customer (buyer) power might well be very high. The
    fact that the paper tubes on average only comprise between 1% and 2% of the total cost of the purchaser’s finished product
    also suggests that buyer power may well be very high.
    The threat from suppliers could be high due to the fact that the specially formulated paper from which the tubes are made is
    sometimes in short supply. Hence suppliers might increase their prices with consequential diminution in gross margin of the
    firms in the marketplace.
    The threat from competitive rivals will be strong as the four major players in the market are of similar size and that the market
    is a slow growing market. The market leader currently has 26% of the market and the three nearest competitors hold
    approximately 18% of the market.
    The fact that Plastic Tubes Co (PTC) produces a narrow range of plastic tubes constitutes a threat from a substitute product.
    This threat will increase if the product range of PTC is extended and the price of plastic tubes is reduced.
    The fact that a foreign-based multinational company is considering entering this market represents a significant threat from a
    potential new entrant as it would appear that the multinational company might well be able to derive economies of scale from
    large scale automated machinery and has manufacturing flexibility.
    Low capital barriers to entry might appeal to BPC but they would also appeal to other potential entrants. The low growth
    market, the ease of entry, the existence of established competitors, a credible threat of backward vertical integration by
    suppliers, the imminent entry by a multi-national, a struggling established competitor and the difficulty of differentiating an
    industrial commodity should call into question the potential of BPC to achieve any sort of competitive advantage. If BPC can
    achieve the position of lowest cost producer within the industry then entry into the market might be a good move. In order
    to assess whether this is possible BPC must consider any potential synergies that would exist between its cardboard business
    and that of the tubes operation.
    From the information available, the option to enter the market for cardboard tubes appears to be unattractive. The directors
    of BPC should seek alternative performance improvement strategies.

    For several years,Americans have enjoyed teleshopping-watching TV and buying things by phone. Now,teleshopping is starting in Europe.ln a number of European countries,people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes,jewelry,food,toys and many others things.

    Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden. For example,the biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries,and in one year it made $ 100 million.In France,there are two teleshopping channels,and the French spend $ 20 million a year to buy things through those channels.

    In Germany,until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for one hour ev-ery day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels can open for telebusi-ness,including teleshopping companies. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things.

    Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities,this is an important reason.But at the same time,other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call teleshopping "just on the air. "Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them,and they believe they can't be sure about the quality of the things on TV.

    The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers can-t touch or see in person.

    ( )26.In which country people can go teleshopping?

    A. America and all the European countries.

    B. Australia and some European countries.

    C. The USA and many European countries.

    D. America and many developed countries.

    26.C【解析】文中一开始就谈到了美国人的几种购物方法·接着谈到了“a number of European countries", “a number of"就相当于“many”,所以选C。

    It should go without saying that the focus of UML is modeling.However,what that means,exactly,can be an open-ended question.( )is a means to capture ideas,relationships,decisions,and requirements in a well-defined notation that can be applied to many different domains.Modeling not only means different things to different people,but also it can use different pieces of UML depending on what you are trying to convey.In general,a UML model is made up of one or more( ).A diagram graphically represents things,and the relationships between these things.These( )can be representations of real-world objects,pure software constructs,or a description of the behavior of some other objects.It is common for an individual thing to show up on multiple diagrams;each diagram represents a particular interest,or view,of the thing being modeled.UML 2.0 divides diagrams into two categories:structural diagrams and behavioral diagrams.( )are used to capture the physical organization of the things in your system,i.e.,how one object relates to another.(请作答此空)focus on the behavior of elements in a system.For example,you can use behavioral diagrams to capture requirements,operations,and internal state changes for elements.

    答案:D
    解析:
    UML的核心关注内容是建模。然而建模是一个开放性的问题。建模是采用合适并预先定义的符号来描述捕获的思想、关系、决策和需求,并且建模可应用到多个领域。建模对不同的人有不同的含义,可以使用UML中不同的部分来描述你所要涵盖的内容。一般来说,UML模型是由一个或者多个diagram组成。一个diagram使用图形化的方式描述了事物以及事物之间的关系,而事物代表了真实世界中的对象、软件构件或对象行为。常常一个独立的事物会在多个diagram中展现,每个diagram建模了该事物的不同方面。UML 2.0将diagram分为两大类:结构化diagram和行为diagram。结构化diagram主要用于捕获系统的物理组织结构,如一个对象与其他对象的关系。行为diagram则用于捕获需求、操作以及元素内部状态的变化。
