...financial measures (such as operating income, return on investment, and economic value added) are not perfect by themselves, they claim that financial measures at least are well understood and provide clear, unambiguous, and objective goals on which all organizational participants can focus.

...Harvard Business School 9-598-061 Rev. November 1, 2000 D Note on Marketing Strategy O Long ago, Peter Drucker wrote that any business enterprise has only two basic functions: marketing and innovation.1 All else, he implied, was detail. The central role of marketing in the enterprise stems from the fact that marketing is the process via which a firm creates value for its chosen customers. Value is created by meeting customer needs. Thus, a firm needs to define itself not by the product it sells, but by the customer benefit provided. N Having created the value for its customers, the firm is then entitled to capture a portion of it through pricing. To remain a viable concern, the firm must sustain this process of creating and capturing value over time. Within this framework, the plan by which value is created on a sustained basis is the firm’s Marketing Strategy. Marketing Strategy involves two major activities: (i) selecting a target market and determining the desired positioning of product in target customers’ minds and (ii) specifying the plan for the marketing activities to achieve the desired positioning. Figure A presents a schematic describing a general process of marketing strategy development. As shown, five major areas of analysis underlie marketing decision making. We begin with analysis of the 5 C’s— customers, company, competitors, collaborators, and context. We ask: O What needs do we seek to satisfy? Company Skills What...

...Global Managerial Economics By: Starlette Freitas ECON310-1302A-02 May 06, 2013 International Economics and Concepts Governments measure the three most commonly-used concepts based on aggregate markets: the unemployment rate, the rate of inflation, and Gross Domestic Product. These rates and measurements are used to determine the health of an economy. Depending on its rates, it will show the strengths and weaknesses in its economic status of growth or downfall. When the unemployment rate is high, that shows symptoms of malfunctioning in the economic system. This rate is incurred through a random amount of surveys in households and those answers of those surveys each month is how the unemployment rate is determined. This rate is found by dividing the total number unemployed by the labor force. If this rate is so, more than likely there is a lot of financial distress as well, which affects the abilities to make loans, pay debts, and the overall cycle of money that flows within an economy; the ability to purchase goods and services, or even invest and meet aggregate supply and demand. (Editorial Board) If the unemployment rate is high, then businesses are not doing well, and if businesses are not doing well, most likely investments are not doing too great either. The chart below represents what the statistical rates would look like as to what happens when the unemployment rate goes up, how inflation is affected as well as GDP. As it clearly demonstrates, the higher...

The challenge for most companies is to be able to offer appropriate products in an affordable way in relatively remote locations. It is our view that India will soon see an inflexion point in rural consumption.1 Mr. K.B.

In 1931, when India was still a British colony, Hindustan Vanaspati Limited was formed as a 100% subsidiary of Unilever in India. It primarily sold soaps, detergents, and other household products to a select group of affluent consumers, such as British government employees and the Indian elite.
