Describing Germane Resource Markets 26. Compute or Describe the Elasticity of Demand &Supply by: (a) describing the impact on total revenue (b) illustrating the determinants of elasticityCourtney 27. Describing the Impact On TotalRevenue Luxury good or items that can be easily replaced, they are goods that can be switched foranother. For such products, consumers will easily put off or buy another product if the priceincreases even a little bit 28. Describing the Impact On TotalRevenue Apple and Samsung both have elastic supply and demand because the products theyproduce and distribute are considered luxury goods. Having an iPad or a Galaxy tablet are not essential for anyone to have but people wantthem. This is beginning to affect Apples total revenue because as Samsung products arebecoming more popular, people are starting to switch over to the less expensive model. If the price of Apple products is more expensive than Samsungs, the demand for Appleproducts will go down but Samsungs will not; thus the total revenue for Apple will godown while Samsungs will go up. This is supported by the expected numbers from the first quarter of 2013; Applesrevenue was to be around 41 to 43 billion while Samsungs was expected to be at 46.7 to48 billion 29. Illustrating The Determinants ofElasticity Both Samsung and Apple are elastic because their products are considered to be luxuryitems. The companies market structures are in an oligopoly competition. Both are at the top of the game when it comes to electronic devices. There is not really anavailability of substitutes when it comes to each companys own products; ratherSamsung could be looked at as a substitute for Apple because Samsung has the cheaperproducts whereas Apples products are more expensive but still looked at as a betterquality just because of the history of the company. The difference between the availability is that Samsung has many more distributioncenters than Apple does, so being seen as substitute and being more readily available tocould be seen as being more elastic. 30. Demonstrate An Understanding of MarketFailures, Externalities, and GovernmentIntervention by: (a) Analyzing government intervention (b) Explaining market failures (c) Relating government intervention to marketfailures.Matt 31. Analyzing Government Intervention Government intervention can be best defined asactions on the part of a government that effecteconomic activity, resource allocation, and thevoluntary decisions made through normal marketexchanges. When the economy is struggling, thriving, or anatural disaster takes place, governmentintervention occurs for the purpose of allocatingresources most efficiently. For example, Governments can intervene witheconomic activities in a number of ways, such asby setting price floors and ceilings, levying taxes,expenditures, controlling the money supply,quantitative easing, and setting up programs tohelp those in poverty 32.

Evaluate The Impact of Globalization on TheDomestic Economy by: (a) Identifying international financial institutions (b) Describing the role of multinationalcorporations (c) Demonstrating how demand and supply impactforeign exchange ratesEddie & Taylor 40. Identifying International FinancialInstitutions The World Trade Organization (WTO) is an international financial institutionthat deals with the global rules of trade between nations. The WTOs mainfunctions are to ensure that trade flows as smoothly, predictably and freely aspossible. Recently the World Trade Organization issued an important ruling that mayallow the United States to be one step closer to opening up Chinas market formovies, music and books. The WTO upheld a panel decision that China brokeinternational rules in restricting market access to foreign films, DVDs, andother cultural products. Currently, Apple is trying to access China and get intoIndonesia before Samsung does 41. Identifying International FinancialInstitutions According to Archer with the Capital Press Agriculture news Indonesia, China and Indiahave great potential because of their growing middle classes who want quality (CapitalPress, 2013, Online). It would be of tremendous benefit to Apples overall profit andcompany because of the increased revenue they would be gaining from these countriespurchasing their products, just like Samsung would if they were to get there first. People who are eager for a product and quality like these three countries are wouldprobably be more willing to buy the first product available to them rather than waitingfor another company to become available for their purchase, so in this case if Apple wereto beat Samsung there, Apple would see an increase in sales and Samsung wouldnt be assuccessful. The World Trade Organization would be overseeing all the trading that would take placebetween the United States and these countries if it comes down that China did breakinternational rules and the U.S. is able to trade with them again. 42. Describing The Role ofMultinational Corporations Environment, employment and economy. All three of these factors hold a significant role in globalization. Many people believethat moving our businesses overseas has a negative impact on our economy. U.S. multinationals strengthen the domestic economy by enhancing Americasproductivity 43. Describing The Role ofMultinational Corporations Moving companies and corporations overseas, actually helps produce more jobs andbrings about many more advantages. When companies successfully compete in foreign markets, more jobs are produced The creation of Multi-National Companies has actually helped to decrease the worldspoverty rates. Newer and better products are constantly created. Consumers discover these products and demand that they be imported to the U.S. Companies that interact in the global marketplace are able to successfully import theseproducts. Those that effectively invest time and money are the ones that profit the most. 44. Describing The Role ofMultinational Corporations When companies successfully compete in foreign markets, more jobs are produced. Domestic parent companies currently employ 22 million U.S. workers. The creation of Multi-National Companies has actually helped to decrease the worldspoverty rates. Adult literacy rates increased from 45-70%, infant mortality rates dropped 56%, lifeexpectancy and production of food per capita has increased 39%. Child labor rates have dropped by an average of 10%. School enrollment rates for ages 6 to 23 rose for all developing countries to 57 percent in1995. 45.

Results of: (a) firms economic efficiency and improvement oftotal revenue programs to minimize market failure. (b) win-win strategies and development programswithin the firm or industry to minimize market failure. (c) firms public infrastructure (manufacturing anddistribution locations) and innovative developmentprograms based on government policies and legislativeissues to minimize market failure.Iris 48. Economic Efficiency &Improvement of Total Revenue Programs ToMinimize Market Failure Apple and Samsung have similar strategies to minimize economic failure and maximize corporateprofits; however, there are many factors that will influence profit maximization. For Apple, a mainthing they look for is the upselling of their products. An example of that would be an iPhone buyeralso wanting and purchasing an iPad, so Apple would get the benefit of them shopping with theircompany twice for different products, which increase the amount of profit Apple receives. They tryto make sure that their products differ enough where people will want one of each of them andtherefore they are able to bring in more money from their customers. While Samsung is has the same mentality, their phones and tablets arent almost interchangeablewith the same features but they work to make sure their customers are satisfied, thus wanting tocome back and purchase another Samsung product. One major problem that both Apple andSamsung have had to overcome in the last few years is the big uproar of cell phone radiation. Thecompanies have had to come up with ways to sway consumers from not buying a product becausethey are worried about radiation from the phone they might purchase. The production of Bluetoothdevices has helped both of the companies overcome the decline in profits that cell phone radiationcaused them to experience. 49. Win-win Strategies &Development Programs Within The Firm orIndustry to Minimize Market Failure Market failure is an equilibrium allocation of resources that is not Pareto optimal-thepotential causes of which may be market power, natural monopoly, imperfectinformation, externalities, or public goods. Research and Development Subsidies & Taxes Taxation 50. Public Infrastructure (manufacturing and distributionlocations) & Innovative Development Programs BasedOn government Policies & Legislative Issues ToMinimize Market Failure The results of the firms public infrastructure, which is the manufacturing anddistribution locations, will be about the same for both Apple and Samsung. If Appleincreases its distribution locations while keeping regards towards the governmentpolicies and legislative issues the results will be an increase in customer satisfaction andtherefore an increase in revenue. The same goes for Samsung. It is imperative that Samsung keep an eye on the policiesand legislative issues because they are distributing in locations worldwide. Once thebottleneck in distribution is removed then we will see an improvement in delivery timewhich equates to increased brand loyalty to the firm. This is especially important forSamsung because Apple is famous for its cult-like following. Once it emulates success onthat level, we will see some intense competition between the two 51.
