Final Decision: The decision I have made for a business relationship with Hungary is to import the consumer good of high end television monitors from Hungary. Hungary is ranked 5th in the world in exporting television monitors and projectors and is increasing every year. Hungary is significantly behind China and Mexico in volume of televisions exported to other countries, but the televisions they do export are higher quality and more specialized. The demand in the United States for high end television monitors is very high. Of all television importers across the world, the United States makes up 31% of those. The TVs imported to the United States over the last year had a value of $30 billion dollars. The next closest country was Germany with a value of $7 billion. These numbers show how large, and how much potential this industry has in the United States. As can be seen
