Bargaining Power of Suppliers In the apparel industry‚ commodities and undifferentiated products‚ such as cotton‚ are purchased in the manufacturing of goods sold to customers. Also‚ cheap labor is abundant overseas for manufacturing needed products. Switching costs are low for this industry‚ allowing firms to easily pick and choose which suppliers they would like to do business with since suppliers offer very similar products‚ which gives suppliers in this industry low bargaining power.

2. If Brenda Crohn’s guesstimates and estimates are wrong‚ how might that change your decision? At what number of applicants os there an economic breakeven between the two types of ads? Brenda thinks we should use the current trade journal ads because the quality of the applicants generated off an internet job site may not be as good as those from our current trade journal ads. Besides that‚ Brenda said they should get to consider the cost as well as the number of qualified applicants. She likes

of the specialized underlying structures of these life-forms. In order for us to appreciate these special adaptation‚ we first need to know how a typical plant or an animal cell organelle behaves in different water and solute concentrations. In this lab‚ we will determine the effects of hypertonic‚ isotonic and hypotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. In general when an animals cell’s placed in hypertonic solution it shrivels; a plant cell on the other hand undergoes plasmolysis. When an animal

Vectors‚ Forces‚ and Equilibrium 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to give you a qualitative and quantitative feel for vectors and forces in equilibrium. 1.2 Introduction An object that is not accelerating falls into one of three categories: • The object is static and is subjected to a number of different forces which cancel each other out. • The object is static and is not being subjected to any forces. (This is unlikely since all objects are subject to the force of gravity

Case study 1. Complete a five forces analysis. Five Forces is a framework of an industry analysis developed by Porter. These five factors help to evaluate the strength of competitive forces and industry profitability. In this part‚ Porter’s Five Forces theory will be applied to analyse the Inuit case study. Inuit is a well-known financial-software and service firm founded in 1983 by Scott Cook and Tom Proulx. When entering the market‚ Intuit was still a small business software and it had to face
