ABSTRACT When thinking about building a diversified portfolio, remember the old adage, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” Diversification is not only about the number of investments in your portfolio, it’s also about the relationships among those investments. Diversification becomes an attractive strategy when a company runs out of profitable growth opportunities in its core business. In a diversified company the strategy making challenge involves assessing multiple industry environments and coming up with a set of business strategies, in which it operates. Multinational diversification strategies feature a diversity of business and a diversity of national markets. Despite the complexity of having to devise and manage so many strategies, these strategies have considerable appeal and more competitive potential. The study focuses on the manner in which diversification strategy is applied for different sectors like IT, FMCG etc. It deals...

ISBN 9780070997592 Chapter 15 pages 488-515 INTRODUCTION When most people think of leasing, they probably think of something like hiring a car for the weekend or leasing an apartment for 6 months. While such contracts are indeed leases, there is another form of lease, known as a finance lease, which uses the legal form of leasing in such a way that it becomes an alternative to borrowing funds to purchase new assets. In this chapter, we consider the various forms of leases and explain how a proposed lease may be evaluated. We also consider chattel mortgages and hire purchase, which, together with leasing, are known as 'equipment finance'. Leasing is distinguished from most other forms of finance by the fact that the financier (the lessor) is the legal owner of the leased asset. The asset user (the lessee) obtains the right to use the asset in return for periodic payments (lease...

Based on your assessment, discuss whether the company should go ahead in SMT proposal 5. Define SMT process type and layout design. Discuss the appropriateness of SMT process type and layout in the light of the SMT operation s characteristics and strategy Steve Twitchell, the vice-president of sales operati ons for PRIDE Industries (PRIDE), was deep in thought, contemplating what had just transpired in a staff meeting where a proposal for a $2.6 million capital equipment expenditure had b een debated. If approved, the project would replace PRIDE’s aging electronics surface mount technology (SMT) machines with newer, faster and more capable machines. The capital expenditure was a large sum for PRIDE, a nonprofit social enterprise, and thus represented a significant investment. The proposal looked good on pa per, and Twitchell had a hunch that it was the only way to keep PRIDE’s current electronic manufactur ing services (EMS) custom ers happy, as well as capture new business. Still, the investment also repr esented a risk. What if the projected new business opportunities never materialized? Twitchell couldn’t he lp thinking about a recurring phrase mentioned in...

The last part of the 19th century was a period of great achievements in medicine and endocrinology. The thyroid gland evolved from being considered a rudimentary structure to an organ related to specific diseases. The singular importance of iodine became acknowledged. Graves-Basedow’s disease was described. Surgical treatment evolved with extraordinary speed. Theodor Kocher observed that the clinical picture in patients after total thyroidectomy was similar to the one seen in cretinism. In 1850, the first case of hypothyroidism or myxedema was described. Less than 50 years later, effective treatment was introduced. Another 50 years later, autoimmune thyroiditis was ascertained as the most frequent cause of hypothyroidism (in areas with no iodine deficiency). This paper gives...
