Louise Wuitton (LW) is a New Zealand-based fashion label which specialises in creating luxury garments for both men and women. LW sources fabrics and other items for their garments locally, and the garments are made in a workroom in Auckland by a team of tailors and seamstresses who are paid at least the standard living wage of $22.10 per hour, depending on their experience. LW commenced operations in 2015, and since then, the company has gained a strong reputation in the marketplace for producing high-quality, fashion-forward clothing at a reasonable price. They have also been recognised as one of New Zealand’s top employers, based on their policies around safe working conditions, employee well-being, and above average hourly wages. Their strong reputation has contributed to growing revenue since 2015, and in the last financial year, the company reported its best ever earnings performance. In the last 18 months, a number of overseas competitors have entered the New Zealand marketplace. These competitors are able to produce similar clothing designs to LW at a much lower cost, given the differences in the cost of labour and materials in the overseas factories. Additionally, the impact of COVID-19 has resulted in lower than anticipated revenue for LW for the first half of the 2020 financial year, and the senior management team anticipates that the situation is likely to deteriorate further unless the company can find a way to cut their costs of production in order to remain competitive. If cost savings cannot be found, the company risks becoming insolvent in the next two years. The company’s CEO believes that the best option for LW is to outsource the manufacturing of their garments to a third-party company located in Bangladesh. This would drastically reduce the costs associated with production, as the standard wages paid in the garment industry in Bangladesh are much lower than those paid by LW in New Zealand. Additionally, the thirdparty manufacturer would be able to source cheaper fabrics from which to make the garments. There are differing views among the other members of the senior management team – some agree that this proposal seems like the best course of action for LW. However, other members of the senior management team are concerned that outsourcing production to Bangladesh would harm the company’s brand image and reputation, resulting in further deterioration of the company’s bottom line in the long-term. Among their concerns, they cite the well-known poor working conditions associated with the garment manufacturing industry in Bangladesh, the low wages paid to the workers in the factories there (who tend to be poorer women and girls with no skills or training that would enable them to obtain better employment elsewhere), and the possible negative environmental consequences of producing clothing using cheaper fabrics.

Required: Use the ethical decision-making framework discussed in lectures to evaluate the ethical dilemma in the above scenario, AND issue a recommendation to the senior management team of Louise Wuitton (LW) based on your evaluation.

Company A has a market value of equity of $2,000 million and 80 million shares outstanding. Company B has a market value of equity of $400 million and 25 million shares outstanding. Company A announces at the beginning of 2019 that is going to acquire Company B.

The projected pre-tax gains in operating income (in millions of $) from the merger are:

The projected pre-tax gains in operating income are expected to grow at 4% after year 2023. The company is using a discount rate of 8% to value the synergies. The marginal corporate tax rate is 35%.

Company A has decided to pay a $300 million premium for Company B. Assume that capital markets are efficient and that there is a 100% probability the deal will be closed.

If Company A were to make a 100% stock offer for Company B, what would the exchange ratio be? Remember that the exchange ratio is the number of Company A’s shares that the shareholders of Company B will receive in exchange for each of their shares.

You are the international manager of a US business that has just invented a revolutionary new personal computer that can perform the same functions as existing PCs but costs only half as much to manufacture. Several patents protect the unique design of this computer. Your CEO has asked you to formulate a recommendation for how to expand into China. Evaluate the pros and cons of each alternative and suggest a course of action to your CEO. Please go in depth on the Pros/Cons.

Your options are:

a. to export from the US

b. to develop a Turn-key project for a Chinese firm to manufacture and market the computer in Asia

c. to acquire an existing Chinese PC manufacturer’s factory and produce it there

d. to do a greenfield investment to China

Your Suggestion – Why?(Please go in depth)

An engine manufacturer has observed failures with their product. In the last 6 years, they have experienced 2 engine failures one year, 3 engine failures in two consecutive years, 4 engine failures one year, and 5 engine failures in each of the preceding two years (two in the last month, alone). The CEO of the engine manufacturer wants to reassure customers. He promises that in the next month, there will not be multiple engine failures (no more than 1 failure). Assume the probability of failure is exponential.

Question: The CEO asks you to calculate the probability that they are correct: What is the probability there will be no more than a single engine failure in the next month?

Note: Making promises to reassure customers and then asking to hear the numbers. This would never happen in the real-world, by the way.
