Royal Dutch Shell has been doing business in Nigeria since the 1920s, and has announced new plans to develop oil and gas projects there. However, over the years Shell has confronted a series of episodes involving country risk. Shell’s operations are centred in Nigeria’s Ogoni region, where the local citizens have protested Shell’s drilling and refining activities, which are said to spoil the natural environment and reduce the amount of available farmland. Protestors also accuse Shell of extracting wealth from the region without adequately compensating local residents. Ogonis sabotaged Shell’s operations to such an extent that the firm suspended parts of its Nigerian operations. Shell also came under pressure to divest its Nigerian operations and to pay reparations to the locals. What proactive steps can Shell take to anticipate future country risk? What should Shell do to deal more effectively with country risk?
In 2000, the President of the United States gathered relevant parties together for peace negotiations at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland. He hoped to move Israel and Palestine closer to peace. In the end, the negotiations were unsuccessful for a few reasons. First, neither side was willing to end their demand for full control of the city of Jerusalem, which both parties wanted as their capital under a two-state solution. Second, violent groups targeted regular civilians to protest the negotiations in the hopes that the talks would be derailed. Ultimately, because of these and other reasons, the negotiations failed. The violent groups who targeted civilians engaged in which strategy? A. Outbidding B. Coercion C. Provocation D. Spoiling
During the late 1970s, the most popular form of music in the United States was disco. Sparked by the film Saturday Night Fever, the disco craze swept the country. It wasn’t just the music, it was also the dancing. And no disco dance club was complete without a disco ball: a mirrored ball suspended from the ceiling. The disco ball would be rotating, with spotlights shined upon it, so that lights would appear to be flashing all across the dance floor. During the heyday of disco, a company called Omega Products International (based in Louisville, Kentucky) made 90% of all the disco balls sold in the U.S. This question has four parts. Please label the parts of your answer clearly as a, b, c, and d. Does the fact that Omega International Products sold 90% of all disco balls in the US indicate that Omega International Products had monopoly power? If your answer is “yes,” then explain why this indicates monopoly power. If your answer is “no,” then explain why this doesn’t necessarily…
Why was Bill Clinton's saxophone performance on TV during his first presidential campaign an effective, if unorthodox, strategic move? It made Clinton appealing to voters concerned about funding for the arts. It showed that he was a candidate who had many skills. Clinton appeared more personable and able to connect with a broad group of voters. Clinton was able to express support of his music education platform through it.
Walmart can be viewed as a first mover. Now suppose both Walmart and HEB are considering whether and how to enter a potential market. Market demand is given by the inverse demand function p= 900−q1−q2, where p is the market price margin, q1 is the quantity sold by Walmart and q2is the quantity sold by HEB. To enter the market, a retailer must build a store. Two types of stores can be built: Small and Large. A Small pantry store requires an investment of $50,000, and it allows the retailer to sell as many as 100 units of the goods at zero marginal cost. Alternatively, the retailer can pay $175,000 to construct a Large full-service supermarket that will allow it to sell any number of units at zero marginal cost. Assume Walmart stays out of the potential market (i.e.Walmart chooses not to enterN1at the first stage,q1= 0). Calculate Walmart's profit for the following cases: a.) HEB chooses not to enter N at the second stage after viewing Walmart’s choice. b.) HEB chooses to build a small…

Think of a person who likes having impact on their social networks. To do so, they always follow the las trends and adapts them to their profile (copies dance moves, open threads, answers DMs, etc.). As their number of followers increase, they are more satisfied. Let us say that this satisfaction is represented by this usefulness function u(f)=f2, where f represents the number of followers. Explain what the law of diminishing marginal returns consists of and if it is complied with in this case. Justify your answer.

Johnson & Johnson’s 1982 Tylenol recall was huge in both scope and cost. Adjusted for inflation, the recall cost roughly $250 million. But, as the seminal event in the history of recalls, arguably none other has had a bigger impact. Known as “the recall that started them all,” J&J set the standard for the way corporations are supposed to handle such events. In a case of product tampering, seven people in the Chicago area died after ingesting Extra-Strength Tylenol laced with cyanide. J&J spent more than $100 million to recall 31 million bottles of its best-selling product. J&J’s swift and decisive action is credited with saving the Tylenol brand, which at the time accounted for 17% of the company’s profits. Although the stock priced swooned initially, it recovered within two months b) List five cases of product recall and their reasons, explaining their impact on the brand and profitability of the company.
