    Eastman Kodak

    Eastman Kodak appears to be profitable even though their net income has decreased. They show an increase in sales since from 2002 to 2004, but their operating costs also increased by 15.3 % from 2002 to 2003. The increase in sales was primarily through acquisitions and the impact of foreign exchange rates on their holdings. Kodak’s largest holding, Digital and Film Imaging Systems, experienced a 1% decrease during this period. In a comparative analysis of the years 2003 and 2004, Kodak increased their current assets and decreased total assets. This reflects the disposal of assets such as equipment, plant and property, and complete discontinuance of certain operations. This decrease in total assets can be seen as a prudent move in their restructuring process. They also decreased their number of employees in 2004 and cut back on their advertising expense.…

    Eastman Kodak

    Company Eastman Kodak is currently the market leader in the photo film market. The company has continued its domination of the photo film market, but in the past 5 years its market share has eased from 76% to 70%. Reason mainly being the competitors like Fuji Photo Film Co. and Konica Corp. lured consumers with their lower-priced versions. In 1993, Kodak spent an estimated $50 million on camera and film supply advertising in the United States; this was about 4 times its market competitor Fuji’s U.S. advertising spending. Both Kodak and Fuji tried to position themselves as providing superior quality film through their advanced technology, however according to consumer reports test, the top six ISO 100 films scored almost similarly on comparable print quality. Context Primarily there are four price tiers in the market (Super-premium Brands, Premium Brands, Economy Brands and Price Brands). Kodak is mainly in two of the price tiers-Kodak Ektar under Super-premium Brand and Kodak Gold Plus under Premium Brand. Kodak’s gross margins are believed to be about 70%. Kodak offerings for super-premium brand targeted very narrowly at advanced amateurs and professionals. Even though a high percentage of films are sold by private label, Kodak does not do so because of 1921 consent decree still in force. Competitors Key competitors for Kodak are Fuji Photo Film Co., Konica Corp, 3M Corp. and Bayer’s Agfa. Fuji’s key brand, Fujicolor Super G, anchors the Economy Brand tier, it is priced 17% below the Premium tier. Gross margin for Fuji is believed to be about 55%. Konica and 3M’s ScotchColor brand make up the other competitors in this tier. Film procured from either Agfa or 3M and sold under a different…

    In December 2006, Bob Prescott, the controller for the Blue Ridge Mill, was consid- ering the addition of a new on-site longwood woodyard. The addition would have two primary benefits: to eliminate the need to purchase shortwood from an outside sup- plier and create the opportunity to sell shortwood on the open market as a new mar- ket for Worldwide Paper Company (WPC). The new woodyard would allow the Blue Ridge Mill not only to reduce its operating costs but also to increase its revenues. The proposed woodyard utilized new technology that allowed tree-length logs, called long- wood, to be processed directly, whereas the current process required shortwood, which had to be purchased from the Shenandoah Mill. This nearby mill, owned by a com- petitor, had excess capacity that allowed it to produce more shortwood than it needed for its own pulp production. The excess was sold to several different mills, including the Blue Ridge Mill. Thus adding the new longwood equipment would mean that Prescott would no longer need to use the Shenandoah Mill as a shortwood supplier and that the Blue Ridge Mill would instead compete with the Shenandoah Mill by selling on the shortwood market. The question for Prescott was whether these expected benefits were enough to justify the $18 million capital outlay plus the incremental investment in working capital over the six-year life of the investment.…

    Language seems to have two principal functions; it is, of course, an instrument of commu-nication, but it can also constitute a means of asserting one’s identity or one’s distinctive-ness from others. A common language may be the ideal vehicle to express the unique character of a social group, and to encourage common social ties on the basis of a common identity (Dieckhoff, 2004). Here it is argued that language can be a robust marker of social identity, capable of binding and…
