Assignment 2

Consider the global operations of the tech giant Apple and make use of the concepts from this week in regards to International trade, Government Influence and Trade, and Cross-National Cooperation and Agreements. Write a case study report to the corporate level executives of Apple located in the US, regarding government intervention, protectionist policies and international agreements into a country of your choice that are expected in the period 2017 to 2019. What actions should Apple take in regards to these issues (hint - these actions should be your solutions in your case). Do not use the same country you pick for this weeks assignment 2, pick a different country.

Content should be between 600 and 900 words with at least three references (the textbook should be one). Proper APA citations should be used throughout the case for information that is not your own. Focus the scope of your response to align with concepts from chapters 6, 7 and 8 from the textbook, as well as other outside research.

I highly recommend you outline each section clearly in your case. I expect you to come up with the specific problem statement and provide that in the intro. I also expect you to provide at least 3 clear and reasonable alternatives/solutions to your problem in the alternatives/solutions section.

A business case approach is required, and not a traditional academic paper. Do NOT give the details and history. ONLY relate items regarding your recommendations for the future. This implies short, directed paragraphs, with a strong structure. Use many headings and topic sentences for every paragraph.

Case Response Expectations

Effective Case Responses

Based on practices and suggestions from texts that use cases, this documents seeks to provide a set of ideas to create case responses. Too often, people fail to provide the critical thinking and analysis anticipated from the cases.

An “is – is not” statement might be:

A Case response IS NOT

The Story

A Case response IS

Why and how to change and improve the situation.

Within undergraduate case analysis, responses are typically short; this implies it is vital to follow a clear process and be concise.The following 8 sections should be included in your case responses.

1- Introduction - Very short! Include an objective and/or problem statement (what problem are you solving with this case?)

2- Analysis - Background and research information about the problem (a SWOT analysis may be used in some cases)

3- Related Assumptions - Scope of the problem, what should be assumed to setup your analysis and solutions

4- Solutions/Alternatives - Potential solutions (at least 3)

5- Evaluation - Rank and compare solutions by listing out pros and cons or each proposed solution

6 - Recommendation - Preferred solution or combination of solutions and rationale

7- Implementation - How to execute the solution

8- Conclusion - A short summary
