You are working for a major U.S. corporation that wants to expand its reach globally and has narrowed the search down to either Mexico or Japan. Your supervisor has asked you to prepare a memo that analyzes potential compliance issues with respect to aspects of law and ethics that are specific to one of the two countries. You will choose to prepare your memo for either Mexico or Japan and address the critical elements below. This will help inform the final executive decision.

I. What pertinent aspects of U.S. law should the company be aware of in its goal to do business internationally?

II. Assess the legal implications of moving business abroad specific to your chosen country. What are the advantages and disadvantages?

III. What are the ethical implications involved in this business decision?

IV. Explain how other domestic companies have managed to comply with the U.S. laws related to this business decision in the past. How did these companies address potential compliance issues?

This would be for Japan, I find lots of answers for Mexico. Thank You

Hand-to-Mouth (H2M) is currently​ cash-constrained, and must make a decision about whether to delay paying one of its​ suppliers, or take out a loan. They owe the supplier $ 11,500 with terms of 1.8​/10 Net​ 40, so the supplier will give them a 1.8 % discount if they pay by today​ (when the discount period​ expires). ​ Alternatively, they can pay the full $ 11,500 in one month when the invoice is due. H2M is considering three​ options:

Alternative​ A: Forgo the discount on its trade credit​ agreement, wait and pay the full $ 11,500 in one month.

Alternative​ B: Borrow the money needed to pay its supplier today from Bank​ A, which has offered a​ one-month loan at an APR of 11.6 %. The bank will require a​ (no-interest) compensating balance of 5.3 % of the face value of the loan and will charge a $ 95 loan origination fee. Because H2M has no​ cash, it will need to borrow the funds to cover these additional amounts as well.

Alternative​ C: Borrow the money needed to pay its supplier today from Bank​ B, which has offered a​ one-month loan at an APR of 14.8 %. The loan has a 0.5 % loan origination​ fee, which again H2M will need to borrow to cover.
