What assumptions must be made regarding the case?

Assumptions that needs to be made regarding this case study are that every leader is fully aware of the different tactics and terms along with the facts that what is challenging and what is beneficial for their firm and for this they need to be given free hand.

What are the facts of case?

Facts of this case study are that there are number of different companies in different areas and they work according to their own requirement and budget. Boston Consulting Group is the one in this case study that argues with different companies and it has also resolved three different trade-offs that in general are linked with the growth of corporate. This case study has highlighted some of the points through which the companies can increase their debt and can grow financially as well. (Singh, 2018)

What are the problems in the case study?

Different firms and companies based on the rapidly developing economies that are shaking up constantly to the order of established economy. This has been recently published by the BCG.

BCG argues about a store Walmart, they have reserved the high margin products along with the services for the special market segments and there are chances that they will be much more expensive to the services. The BCG makes an argument here that some of the global challenges have been successfully capable to have margin and volume both. They have the low direct costs of the labor and material. (Black, 2018)

Many of the emerging markets also makes an argument that different firms don’t understand the emerging market.

What alternatives are available given the resources?

Alternatives that are available to the given resources are the leader themselves. BCG no doubt looks after the firms and tell them what things are advantageous and which ones are not. But the alternative resource for this is the leader of every firm on their own.

 What action do you recommend?

Actions that I recommend or suggest are that every firm or organization has their own set of rules and every organization has their own executive leader who knows what is best for their organization or firm. So this should be the responsibility of leader to look after the firm and analyze the things that are better or challenging for them.

What are the facts of the case?

Facts of this case are that two different coal mining companies have been mentioned. One is in Australia by the name of Felix and the other one is in China by the name of Yanzhou. The coal mining company in China by the name of Yanzhou have made an agreement or scheme for the Felix Company and now the investors of the Felix Company are much under pressure to accept the scheme. (He, 2019)

What assumptions must you make regarding the case?

Assumptions that I have made regarding the case that china is the one that consumes ample amount of the coal and now the Company Yanzhou is looking out for the tactics through which they can obtain coal from other resources as well especially outside the china and Australia had been their target for getting coal.

What is the problem? There may be many problems. Try to prioritize them.

The very first problem that I witnessed in the case is the scheme or agreement that was being made by the Yanzhou Company was on the previous prices but when they introduced it to the Felix Company in Australia price of the coal was increased along with the value of Australian dollar as well and the shareholders were in much pressure. Other problem that I witnessed in the case is most of the natural resources in china are being fulfilled by the coal like electricity and all these things and as the tax increased and they have to fulfill their needs no matter what they are desperately looking for some of the companies of coal who can provide them coal so that they can fulfill their needs. (CHENG, 2017)

What alternatives are available given the resources?

There is no as such alternative that is available for both of the companies especially for the Yanzhou china coal mining company because china is the one that use the coal in ample amount and if they don’t get enough coal all of their work would be definitely stopped.

What action do you recommend?

Investors need to look for the better options and they should bot get under pressure when situation gets tensed or the things that have been discussed in the case study. No doubt China is a country that wants a coal in ample amount but on the other side it should also look out for the other countries as well. Both of these companies should have discussed each and everything beforehand to make things go right on the track and make sure nothing goes wrong and everything remain settled apart from the high prices or demand of coal.

What are the facts of the case?

Facts of the case are that Pakistan International Airlines have been explained in detail that how beneficial this airline is for Pakistan and how it is playing its role in the economy growth, export and import purposes as well. This was the very first airline and it served number of different people through its services. This airline Company is also having number of different associations or relations with the other ones like Ibrahim Makran Pvt. LTD along with Honeywell finance department as well. They all had good connections with one another. (Farooq, 2019)

What assumptions must you make regarding the case?

Assumptions that needs to be made regarding the case are that Pakistan International Airlines is one of the most national flag carrier of the Islamic republic of Pakistan and no matter what or how the services are being provided by this airline now we should always have a positive impact of this airline on our minds and along with this that it works really great and positive for the growth of our economy along with another factor that it plays a positive role in the import and export purposes as well.

What is the problem? There may be many problems. Try to prioritize them.

Honeywell finance department was attempting different efforts to reduce the net working capital while the main goal or aim of the department was to reduce world wise DSR rates from the 55 days to the 45 days.

PIA had been constantly put on the hold by the collections department along with the forcing marketing, staff representatives for the pressing of agents who in return pressed PIA for the sake of payment. 

What alternatives are available given the resources?

Alternatives that are available to the given resources are that they proposed a contract. Local currency request was also the result of the clause for the payment of 20% in advance. US based airline trading companies should distort the actual local payment terms.

What action do you recommend?

Things that I recommend here are that PIA should work with full energy to keep all the things going and make sure everyone gets happy and satisfied by their services. All of the spread between all of the individual customers within different regions need to be extremely large. All of the disputed invoices also need to be included. Amount should be mentioned for all the services, products and the exchanges as well.
