the data under analysis reveals the changes in pricing strategy over the duration of the 6 simulations. When specific reference is made to the Unit Price it can be noted that for the first 3 simulations the Unit Price for the backpack‚ targeted primarily towards Urban Computers‚ was $45. But‚ in the 4th and 5th rounds of sales‚ the Unit Price was decreased to $34. Lastly‚ in the 6th and final simulation of analysis the Unit Price was decreased to a final price of $28.

1. What are four to five ways that specialty retailers differ from discounters (a la Wal-Mart)? Inventory turns: According to the data provided in the Williams-Sonoma Inc. case study (1990) average specialty store turns were just under 2x. If you look at the data from the Wal-Mart Article discount stores have turns many times that‚ actually turns around the neighborhood of 8x. Margins: Discounters such as Wal-Mart go for the high volume low margin approach. Sine their whole approach revolves

This paper is a reflection on three simulations as each relates to strategic planning. The first simulation‚ “Thinking Strategically‚” highlights the importance of environmental scanning. The second simulation‚ “Developing Grand Strategies‚” challenged decisions made for a company which lead to effective strategy formulation and choices. The third simulation‚ “Creating a Strategic Road Map‚” provided a simulated experience of how to build a strategic roadmap focusing on the importance and effectiveness

according to the randomization application (random.org). I used the bootstrapping simulation because I want to use this data that I get to represent the whole population (all undergraduate psychology courses offered at IU) and find the confidence interval. Then‚ I run the simulations 100‚000 times as the data have been stabilized at this point. In this case‚ one run of the run simulation means. Each run of this simulation means picking 30 values with replacement from the original sample‚ calculating
