...Written Report MACRO COMPUTER SCIENCE What is a Macro Computer? A macro (short for "macroinstruction", from Greek μακρο- 'long') in computer science is a rule or pattern that specifies how a certain input sequence (often a sequence of characters) should be mapped to a replacement output sequence (also often a sequence of characters) according to a defined procedure. The mappings process that instantiates (transforms) a macro use into a specific sequence is known as macro expansion. A facility for writing macros may be provided as part of a software application or as a part of a programming language. In the former case, macros are used to make tasks using the application less repetitive. In the latter case, they are a tool that allows a programmer to enable code reuse or even to design domain-specific languages. Macros are used to make a sequence of computing instructions available to the programmer as a single program statement, making the programming task less tedious and less error-prone. (Thus, they are called "macros" because a big block of code can be expanded from a small sequence of characters). Macros often allow positional or keyword parameters that dictate what the conditional assembler program generates and have been used to create entire programs or program suites according to such variables as operating system, platform or other factors. The term derives from "macro instruction", and such expansions were originally used in generating assembly language code...

...Various macroeconomic factors that influence the business are: a. Economic Growth Economic activities refer to the level of buying and selling activities happening in an economy over a time period. It is a highly complex activity and keeping accurate track of it is beyond comprehension. Economic activity is not constant and can change rapidly, thereby affecting the business. Economic activity changes could happen due to the following reasons: Changes in income levels Future prospects of individuals. Future of the economy The level of economic activity in the world as a whole Political activity around the world Natural disasters - like hurricanes, earthquakes, or flood etc. Changes in prices of raw materials - oil, metals, fuel, energy and so on Changes in world stock markets The level of economic activity is usually measured by GDP (Gross Domestic product). It refers to the total amount of goods and services a country produces. Businesses are greatly influenced by the economic activities. When GDP rate falls or slows down, there will be a fall in demand for good or services offered by businesses. As a result, businesses will witness a fall in revenues and profit margins. To curb this business will have to reduce their prices to increase the sales. This could further lead to increase in unemployment. On the other hand, when there is an increase in GDP, the demand for products will automatically increase and hence the prices will go up. To cope...

...In your opinion, what is the most relevant macro-environment factor (legal, political, cultural and economic differences) for an international business when choosing to internationalise into an emerging/developing market? Discuss any international business concepts or theories that could be used to help justify your answer. In the past few decades internationalisation has been a phenomenon in being a main subject in international business research. Globalisation has allowed countless commercial opportunities to occur over the border of their national country by maintaining competition and the continuing growth of international firms (Tikhonova, 2012). In foreign countries, legal and political systems as well as the economy are essential to have knowledge in as it explains how political systems, laws and regulations and economic differences affect international business opportunities. Although these factors are vital in understanding the foreign environment, it is not as broad as culture. Culture is a factor that includes several aspects that range from different dimensions which on a broad level includes linguistic, regional, religious and ethnic dimensions (Reference for Business’s website, 2014). Fundamentally for an international firm to endure success in emerging markets it is relevantly important to have full understanding of consumers and their cultural differences. In order for a firm to reach their full potential and succeed in an emergent market they need to have...

These are factors are but not limited to memory, anti-virus protection, and processing speed. So the best choice of all three of these in one would be a MAC from Apple. This would be the recommendation that I would give. The search has been narrowed down between three units which are Apple IMac 27inch (Late 2012), Dell XPS 27 Touch All in One (2720), last but not least Dell Optiplex 9010 AIO.

...During the past few years Target has focused on its microenvironmental factors. They have claimed to have focused on 4 primary causes to the overall factor of the company. First off when you talk about Target you also have to mention their greatest competitor which is Walmart. So, the first stage of these factors is Competitors. The main and well known strategy that they use is very low prices that are resonated with the consumer. This all started when the economy took a plunge into recession and consumers were trying to savor every penny they had in pocket. This led to a decline in market share for target because Walmart then has the largest microenvironment as a competitor with a low costing store. Next on the list of factors is the customers that buy from these stores. As mentioned in the beginning as the recession started customers started relying more on coupons and other ways to save a dollar. This was so wide spread over the U.S. because unemployment rates rose to their all-time highs. Target is very well-known for their style and having slightly higher prices than Walmart for the “better quality” that a customer didn’t have a problem paying before the recession. Overall this idea of being fashionable and spending a few extra dollars on merchandise led to a decrease in customers for Target because they were not being cost savvy for the average customer. If they had done a better job in fulfilling customer satisfaction than Walmart did then they could have had the higher...

...1. Review the list of factors that may contribute to building positive brand equity (list one). Which factors do you think would be the main contributors to a firm’s brand equity? 1. Product range 2. Relative product quality 3. Word-of-mouth 4. Social ‘status’ of the product 5. Visibility of the product 6. Market share (extent of popularity) 7. Success of new products 8. Target markets 9. Competitive set 2. Now review the second list of brand equity benefits. Which ones do you consider to be the main benefits? 1. Increased sales 2. Price premium 3. Customer loyalty 4. Perceived popularity and real visibility 5. Point-of-sale merchandise uptake 6. Supplier bargaining power 7. New product success 8. More product line extensions 9. Significant competitive advantage 10. Point-of-sale merchandise uptake 11. Easier market development 12. Stable cash flow and easier planning 3. Looking at the two lists, do you think that there is a relationship between the two? That is, does a strength/performance in one list contribute to a better result for a similar factor in the other list? (Example, a strong brand can be built by social media, yet strong brands will generally have a greater social media presence and uptake.) Yes, I imagine that there is a relationship between the two records. According to my perspective I surmise that is does quality in one rundown add to a superior result for a comparable...
