Railroads are one of the cost-effective modes for shipping car-load quantities of bulk products such as coal, sand, minerals, farm and forest productslong land distances. The rate costs for shipping merchandise are quite complex. The lowest r comes from shipping carload rather t less-than-carload quantities. Manufacturers will attempt to combine shipments common destinations to take adv of lower carload rates. Railroads have recently begun to increase customer-oriented services. They have designed new equipment to ha special categories of merchandise more efficiently, provided flatcars for carrying truck trailers by rail, and provided in-transit services 43 as diversion of shipped goods to other destinations en route and processing goods en route.As soon as an o is accepted by the customer, the exporter sends him a contract to con the sale.

UNCTAD is designed to promote trade and economic development of all countries. Particularly developing countries. Over the 40-plus years since its founding, UNCTAD has played important role in fostering North-South dialogue and cooperation, promoting trade and economic development of the developing countries and assisting them in speeding up integration into the multilateral trading economy.In documentary collection, the exporter sends the draft and the shipping documents representing title to the goods to his bank, which forwards them to another bank in the importer’s country, which in turn contacts the customer. In the case of documents against payment (D/P), documents will not be released to the importer until payment is effected. There are D/P at sight and D/P after sight. The former requires immediate payment by the importer to get hold of the documents. The latter gives the importer a certain period after presentation of the documents, but documents are not released to him until he actually pays for the merchandise. In the case of documents against acceptance against acceptance (D/A), documents are handed over to the importer upon his acceptance of the bill of exchange drawn by the exporter. Payment will not be made until a later date. D/A is always after sight.APEC was set up at the Ministerial Meeting held in the Australian capital Canberra attended by 12 members of Australia, the United States, Canada, Japan, Republic of Korea, New Zealand and six ASEAN countries.

Now APEC has altogether 21 members including all the major Pacific Rim countries and regions.Most multinational corporations are made up of vast numbers of foreign subsidiaries, companies in which over 50 percent is owned by the parent company. Like all corporations, MNCs are organized according to the goals the set for themselves. They strive to retain access to the necessary resources: raw material, manpower, and capital. Furthermore, they try to grow through global cooperation by increasing their access to world resources. This leads them to expand their foreign market position, in other words, to increase their market share. MNCs grew into strong entities by reinvesting their profits prudently so as to further increase access to resources. They had to hire more and more talented local people abroad, and they had to purchase raw materials in foreign countries.1.许多国际交易是通过汇票支付的,汇票是对银行或顾客的支付命令2.要评估一个市场的潜力,人们往往要分析其收入水平,因为它为那里的居民的购买力高低提供了线索。

If a country could pay that labor less, and if that labor could produce more physically than labor in other countries, the country might obtain an absolute or comparative advantage in trade.国际贸易理论自从亚当史密斯第一次提出后就发生了很大的变化。

It's when you sit squirming in an interviewees chair trying to be eloquent when you are asked why you left your last job. More specifically, however, when we talk about the business presentation, it could mean1. chemicals2. construction3. finance4.

If you have any questions I'll try to answer them.The structure of the oral presentation is crucial for one main reason: once you have articulated a statement, the audience cannot "rehear" yvhat you have said. In reading, when you do not understand a sentence or paragraph, you can stop and reread the passage as many times as necessary. When you are speaking, however; the audience must be able to follow your meaning and understand it without having to stop and consider a particular point you have made, thereby missing later statements that you make as you move through your presentation. To help your audience follow what you say easily, you must design your presentation with your audience, particularly their listening limitations, in mind. 承蒙盛情邀请 at the gracious invitation of 年会 annual meeting商界的朋友们 friends from the business community 营销报告会 marketing presentation销售代农 sales representative 销售记录 sales record 顾客满意度 customers^ satisfaction 生产商 manufacUim批发商 mcrcharH wholesaler佣金商 commission agent经销渠道 distribution channel 战略营销 strategic marketing潜在的风险和机遇 potential threats and opportunities 销售业绩 sales performancePresentations are comiTiunicating with an audience in a format in which one or more senders present a sef of infonnalion io one or more receivers. This sounds like a very broad definition and a little confusing, but presentations have evolved to be very complicated in today's world ・ You may be called on to present using no equipment, or you may have a whiteboard, slide projector, overhead projector, or beam project available ・ It is becoming more common now to have a virtual presentation over the Internet using some software that allows display of your presentation through a presentation or meeting client or standard browser window.

商务英语国际商务期末复习资料简答1. The Globalization of ProductionThe globalization of production refers to the tendency among firms to source goods and services from locations around the globe to take advantage of national differences in the cost and quality of factors of production (such as labor, energy, land, and capital).By doing so, companies hope to lower their overall cost structure and/or improve the quality or functionality of their product offering,thereby allowing them to compete more effectively.2. The differences between common law and civil law?Common law is based on tradition, precedent, and custom.(1) A common law system is more flexible that other systems.(2) Judges in a common law system have the power to interpret the law so that it applies to the unique circumstances of an individual case.(3) Each new interpretation sets a precedent that may be followed in future cases.(4) As new precedents arise, laws may be altered, clarified, or amended to deal with new situations.Civil Law is based on a detailed set of laws organized into codes. (1) When law courts interpret civil law, they regard to these codes.EX. Germany, France, Japan, and Russia(2) A civil law system tends to be less adversarial than a common lawsystem(3) The judges rely upon detailed legal codes rather than interpreting tradition, precedent, and custom. Judges under a civil law system have the power only to apply the law.3. How corruption effect economy?(1) High levels of corruption significantly reduce the FDI, level of international trade, and economic growth rate in a country.(2) By siphoning off profits, corrupt politicians and bureaucrats reduce the returns to business investment and, hence, reduce the incentive of both domestic and foreign businesses to invest in that country.(3) The lower level of investment that results hurts economic growth.4. Why we need to protect intellectual property?The philosophy behind intellectual property laws is to reward the originator of a new invention, book, musical record, clothes design, restaurant chain, and the like, for his or her idea and effort. Such laws stimulate innovation and creative work. They provide an incentive for people to search for novel ways of doing things, and they reward creativity.。

Such intellectual property may be trademarks, brand names, patents, copyrights or technology.(4) Franchising: it can be regarded as a special form of licensing. Under franchising, a firm, called the franchisee, is allowed to operate in the name of another, called the franchiser who provides the former with trademarks, brand names, logos, and operating techniques for royalty.(5) Franchiser: it can be develop internationally and gain access to useful information about the local market with little risk and cost, and the franchisee can easily get into a business with established products or services.(6) Management contract: Under a management contract, one company offers managerial or other specialized servicesto another within a particular period for a flat payment of a percentage of the relevant business volume.(7) International turnkey project: a firm signs a contract with a foreign purchaser and undertakes all the designing, contracting and facility equipping before handing it over to the latter upon completion. Projects are often large and complex and take a long period to complete.1. (1) Please tell the difference between international business and domestic business.International business involves more factors and thus is more complicated than domestic business. The followings are some major differences between the two:1. The countries involved often have different legal systems, and one or more parties will have to adjust themselves to operate in compliance with the foreign law.2. Different countries usually use different currencies and the parties concerned will have to decide which currency to use and do everything necessary as regards convertion etc. uncertainties and even risks are often involved in the use of a foreign currency.3. Cultural differences including language, customs, traditions, religion, value, behavior etc. often constitute challenges and even traps for people engaged in international business.4. Countries vary in natural and economic conditions and may have different policies towards foreign trade and investment, making international business more complex than domestic business.(2) Please explain the differences between visible trade and invisible trade. Which is becoming more and more important and accounts for an increasing proportion in international trade?International business first took the form of commodity trade, i.e. exporting and importing goods produced or manufactured in one country for consumption of resale in another. This form of trade is also referred to as visible trade. Later a different kind of trade in the form of transportation, communication, banking, insurance, consulting, information etc. gradually became more and more important. This type of trade is called invisible trade. Thday, the contribution of service industries of the developed countries constitutes over 60% of their gross domestic products and account for an increasing proportion of world trade.(4) Please elaborate on the two categories of international investment. What is their major difference?The first kind of investments, foreign direct investments or FDI for short is made for returns through controlling the enterprises or assets invested in in a host country.The second kind of investment, portfolio investment, refers to purchases of foreign financial assets for a purpose other than controlling. Such financial assets may be stocks, bonds or certificates of deposit.(5) Why do firms sometimes choose it as a means of entering a foreign market?Firms choose licensing because they do not have to make cash payments to start business, and can simply receive income in the form of royalty. Besides, they can benefit from locational advantages of foreign operation without any obligations in ownership or management.(6) How is it different from licensing?In comparison with the relation between the licenser and the licensee, the franchiser has more control over and provides more support for the franchisee.(7)Under what condition is a management contract most applicable?When a government forbids foreign ownership in certain industries it considers to be of strategic importance but lacks the expertise for operation, management contracts may be a practical choice enabling a foreign company to operate in the industry without owning the assets.(8) In what way is its variant BOT different from it?BOT is a popular variant of the turnkey project where B stands for build, O for operate and T for transfer. For a BOT project, a firm operates a facility for a period of time after building it up before finally transferring it to a foreign company. Making profit from operating the project for a period is the major difference between BOT and the common turnkey project.5. Translation:(1)国际贸易一般指不同国家的当事人进行的交易,它涉及到许多因素,因而比国内贸易要复杂得多。
