Andrea should ________ at the futures price to profit from changing currency values.A) buy yenB) buy dollarsC) sell yenD) There is not enough information to answer this question.Answer: A3.2 Essay Questions1) Why are foreign currency futures contracts more popular with individuals and banks while foreign currency forwards are more popular with businesses? Answer: Foreign currency futures are standardizedcontracts that lendthemselves well to speculation purposes but less so for hedging purposes. The standardized nature of the futures contract makes it easy to trade futures and to make bets about general changes in the value of currencies. Forward contracts are better for hedging in that they are tailored to meet the specific needs of the client, typically a business, and can be quite useful in reducing exchange rate risk. Banks are involved in the foreign currency futures market in part to offset positions that they may have taken in the forward markets as dealers.2) How do currency forward and futures contracts differ with respect to maturity, settlement, and the size and timing of cash flows?Answer: see p36-37, Table 3.73) What is the primary role of the exchange clearinghouse?Answer: see p14-15※4) Draw and explain the payoff profile associated with a currency futures contract.Answer: refer to chapter 8。

国际投资第三章课后习题答案

国际投资第三章课后习题答案

Chapter 3Foreign Exchange Determination andForecasting1. Applying expansionary macroeconomic policy, which results in higher goods prices and lower realinterest rates, will not reduce the balance of payments deficit. Higher prices will make the country’s goods less competitive internationally, and lower interest rates will discourage foreign capital. Thus, the balance of payments deficit will worsen instead of improve. On the other hand, (a), (b), and (d) will help in remedying the balance of payments deficit. Accordingly, the answer is (c).2. a. One advantage of a wider band is “emotional.” France could claim that it did not devalue itscurrency. Another advantage is flexibility. If there were no long-term fundamental reasons(inflation, balance of payments deficit, etc.) for a devaluation, the temporary pressure on thefranc could ease and the franc could later revert to its previous level. The disadvantage of a wider band is exchange rate uncertainty for all firms. A “credible” small band is preferable for firmsconducting international trade,b. A wider band makes speculation less attractive, because there is no guarantee that a central bankwill defend its currency until the wide fluctuation margin is reached.3. a. The American investor has paid a 25 percent premium over the price paid by a domestic investor.Yet, he receives the same dividends as the domestic investor. Therefore, his investment bears asmaller yield than it would for a domestic investor.b. Lifting of the exchange controls would be bad news to an existing foreign investor in Paf, sinceher asset could only be repatriated at the normal pif rate (1.00), while she had bought it at thefinancial rate (1.25).c. Lifting of the exchange controls would be good news to foreign investors planning to invest inPaf in the future, because they would no longer have to pay the 25 percent premium when buying assets in Paf.4. Remember that the Eurozone is made up of those countries in the EU that have adopted the euro ascommon currency. Statements I and III are clearly correct. Statement II is clearly not correct, because there is a possibility that more countries may join the Eurozone in future. For example, the British are debating whether to join the Eurozone.5. The statement is true. Because of riskless arbitrage, interest rate parity between two currencies wouldhold if the markets for both are free and deregulated. Developed financial markets tend to be more free and deregulated. A developing country is more likely to impose various forms of capital controls and taxes that impede arbitrage. A developing country is economically not as well integrated with the world financial markets as the developed markets are. Also, some smaller currencies can only be borrowed and lent domestically, and the domestic money markets of developing countries are more likely to be subjected to political risk.Chapter 3 Foreign Exchange Determination and Forecasting 156. a. Using the first-order approximation of PPP relationship, the variation in rupee to dollar exchangerate should equal the inflation differential between rupee and dollar. So, the rupee to dollarexchange rate should increase by 6 − 2.5 = 3.5%. That is, the rupee should depreciate by 3.5%relative to the dollar.b. The nominal dollar return for the U.S. institutional investor is approximately 12 − 5 = 7%. Thereal return for the U.S. investor is approximately 7 − 2.5 = 4.5%. The real return for the Indianinvestor is approximately 12 − 6 = 6%. Thus, the U.S. investor has a lower real return than theIndian investor. This is so because the rupee depreciated with respect to the dollar by more thanwhat the PPP relationship would indicate. Indeed, the difference between the real returns is6 − 4.5 = 1.5%, which is the same as the difference between the actual depreciation of the rupeeand the depreciation that should have occurred as per PPP (5 − 3.5 = 1.5%).7. If a country’s currency is undervalued, it means that the real prices of assets in this country are lowcompared with other countries. Also, the wages are lower in real terms than in other countries. Thus, investors from other countries would invest in this country to take advantage of low prices andwages. This action would help in the appreciation of the undervalued currency and restoration of the PPP in the long run. In terms of foreign trade, an undervalued currency implies that exports from this country would get a boost while imports would become less attractive. This would also help in the appreciation of the undervalued currency and restoration of the PPP in the long run.8. In risk-neutral efficient foreign exchange markets, the forward rate is the expected value of the futurespot rate. The forward rate can be computed using the interest rate parity relation. Because the exchange rate is given in $:SFr terms, the appropriate expression for the interest rate parity relation isSFr $11r F Sr +=+ (that is, r SFr is a part of the numerator and r $ is a part of the denominator). Accordingly, the three-month forward rate is10.00951.4723 1.460010.0180F +==+ thus, the implied market prediction for the three-month ahead exchange rate is SFr1.4600 per $.9. As per the model, one € would be worth $0.9781 six months later. Based on the forward rate, one €would be worth $0.9976 six months later. Therefore, the market participants, who believe that the model is quite good, would buy the dollar in the forward market (sell euros). Consequently, the price of the euro forward would decrease (the dollar forward would increase) and the forward rate would become equal to $0.9781 per €. The spot exchange rate and the dollar and euro interest rates would change so as to be consistent with this forward rate. A look at the interest rate parity relationship— written in the form€$11r F S r+=+ as F and S are in €:$ terms—suggests that with the decrease in forward rate from $0.9976 per € to$0.9781 per €, the spot rate and interest rate in dollars are likely to go down and interest rate in euros is likely to go up.16 Solnik/McLeavey • Global Investments, Sixth Edition10. a. The forward rate can be computed using the interest rate parity relation. Because the exchange rate is given in £:$ terms, the appropriate expression for the interest rate parity relation is$£11r F S r +=+ (that is, r $ is a part of the numerator, and r £ is a part of the denominator). Accordingly, the one-year forward rate is1.02001.5620$1.5283 per £1.0425F .== b. Based on the forward rate, one pound would be worth $1.5283 one year later. The model predictsthat one pound would be worth $1.5315 one year later. Thus, as per the model, the pound isunderpriced in the forward market. Accordingly, Dustin Green would buy pounds forward at$1.5283/£.c. If everyone were to buy pounds forward, the price of pounds forward would increase and becomeequal to $1.5315 per £. The spot exchange rate and the dollar and pound interest rates wouldchange so as to be consistent with this forward rate. A look at the interest rate parity relationship suggests that the spot rate and the interest rate in dollars are likely to go up and the interest rate in pounds is likely to go down, to be consistent with the increase in the forward rate.11. a. If the market participants are risk-neutral, the expected future spot exchange rate would be thesame as the current forward rate. The forward rate is determined based on the current spotexchange rate and the interest rate differential between the two currencies. Thus, the expectedfuture spot exchange rate would depend on the current spot exchange rate and the interest ratedifferential.b. If the market participants are risk-averse, the forward rate would differ from the expected futurespot exchange rate by the risk premium. The risk premium, based on the extent of risk aversionof the market participants, could be positive or negative. So, the expected future spot exchangerate is the forward rate less the risk premium. Since the forward rate is based on the current spot exchange rate and the interest rate differential between the two currencies, the expected futurespot exchange rate would depend on the current spot exchange rate, the interest rate differential, and the risk premium.12. There is some evidence of positive serial correlation in exchange rate movements (real and nominal).Hence, when a currency is going up, a reasonable forecast is that it will continue going up. Similarly, when a currency is going down, a reasonable forecast is that it will continue going down. However, at some point in time, the trend would reverse, and the problem is that a trend-based forecasting model cannot forecast when this turning point would occur. Although these turning points may be infrequent, they can be the occasion of a huge swing. The Mexican peso is a good example. For a few years until the end of 1994, the real value of the peso appreciated steadily. So, forecasters using trendmodels for the real exchange rates were quite successful for many months. However, in December 1994, the peso suddenly crashed and lost around half of its value.13. Statements (a), (c), and (d) are true. Statement (b) is not true, because the objective of central bankactivity in the foreign exchange market is not to profit from trading activities, but to implementmonetary policy and exchange rate targets.Chapter 3 Foreign Exchange Determination and Forecasting 17 14. A mean-reverting time series is one that may diverge from its fundamental value in the short run butreverts to its fundamental value in the long run. Empirical evidence suggests that exchange rates are mean reverting. The real exchange rates (observed exchange rate minus inflation) do deviate from the fundamental value implied by PPP in the short run, but tend to revert to the fundamental value in the long run.15. Most econometric models are unsuitable for short-term exchange rate forecasts, as they model long-term structural economic relationships. For long-term exchange rate forecasts, the use of econometric models has some problems. First, most of them rely on predictions for certain key variables, such as money supply and interest rates. It is not easy to forecast these variables. Second, the structuralcorrelation estimated by the parameters of the equation can change over time, so that even if allcausative variables are correctly forecasted, the model can still yield poor exchange rate predictions.In periods when structural changes are rapid compared with the amount of time-series data required to estimate parameters, econometric models are of little help.16. Technical analysis is more likely to be used for short-term exchange rate movements, while theeconometric approach is more likely to be used for long-term exchange rate movements. The manager of a currency hedge fund and currency traders change their foreign exchange positions quite quickly, and are interested in short-term changes in exchange rates. On the other hand, the manager of an international stock portfolio is unlikely to change his foreign exchange positions quickly, because the transaction costs of buying and selling stocks are quite high. Therefore, the manager of aninternational stock portfolio is more interested in the long-term movements in exchange rates.Similarly, the long-term strategic planner of a corporation is interested in the long-term movements.Accordingly, the answers are:a. Technical analysisb. Econometric approachc. Technical analysisd. Econometric approach17. a. The absolute values of prediction errors are as follows: Forward rate: 1.440 − 1.308 = 0.132;Analyst A: 1.410 − 1.308 = 0.102; and Analyst B: 1.580 − 1.308 = 0.272. Thus, the forecast byAnalyst A was the most accurate.b. The forward rate and Analyst B erroneously predicted that the SFr to $ exchange rate would goup from the then-spot rate of SFr 1.420 per $; that is, the SFr would depreciate. Only Analyst Acorrectly predicted that the Swiss franc would appreciate.18. a. The absolute values of forecast errors are as follows: Forward rate: 148.148 − 144.697 = 3.451;Commerzbank: 148.148 − 142 = 6.148; and Harris Bank: 156 − 148.148 = 7.852. Thus, theforecast as per the forward rate was the most accurate, followed by Commerzbank, and then byHarris Bank.b. Although the forward rate and Commerzbank were more accurate than Harris Bank, both of themerroneously predicted that the yen would appreciate relative to the dollar. Only Harris Bankcorrectly predicted that the yen would depreciate.18 Solnik/McLeavey • Global Investments, Sixth Editionc. Commerzbank’s forecast was ¥142 per $, which was less than the forward rate. Therefore, DavidBrock bought yen forward (sold dollars) at the rate of ¥144.697 per $. Because the actual rateturned out to be ¥148.148 per $, buying yen forward did not turn out to be the right strategy. On the other hand, Harris Bank’s forecast was ¥156 per $, which was more than the forward rate.Therefore, Brian Lee sold yen forward (bought dollars) at the rate of ¥144.697 per $. Because the actual rate turned out to be ¥148.148 per $, selling yen forward turned out to be the right strategy. d. Commerzbank’s forecast had a lower forecast error than Harris Bank’s in Part (a). However, inPart (c), it was right to buy and sell based on Harris Bank’s forecast and not Commerzbank’s.The reason is that Harris Bank’s forecast turned out to be on the right side of the forward rate,while Commerzbank’s did not.19. Let the forecasts made by the Industrial Bank of Japan at the beginning of period t for the beginningof period t + 1 be E (S t + 1|φt ). Let the forward rates quoted at the beginning of period t for thebeginning of period t + 1 be F t , and the actual spot rates at the beginning of periods t and t + 1 be S t and S t +1, respectively. The percentage forecast errors (∈and e ) for each forecast made by the Industrial Bank of Japan and the forward rate are computed as εt +1 = [S t +1 − E (S t +1|φt )]/S t and e t +1 = [S t +1 − F t ]/S t , respectively. The following table details the computations.Pd.

We have not tested whether the difference in forecast performances is statistically significant.。

More language inputArt museums are places where people can learn about various cultures. The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales-it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell yousomething, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits , on the other hand , would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding .In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums , and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life .1. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows becausethey .A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do2. The author believes that most design museum visitors .A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well3. The choices open to design museums .A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed to interest the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits4. The best title for this passage is .A. The forms of design museumsB. The exhibits of design museumsC. The nature of design museumsD. The choices open to design museumsUnit 4 A garden of poemsI.

He wrote a poem."I've never (2) my poem to be given full marks. I only thought that it would not be that bad," said the 18-year-old boy. Wu (3) from Ruiquan Middle School in Weinan, Shaanxi Province. He said when he heard the news, two strong feelings (4) up inside him —surprise and excitement.Writing a poem in the NCEE is always considered a (5) becauseteachers find it hard to mark students' poems. Also, there are seldom opportunities for students to read or practice writing poems. And only in the last three years have students been allowed to hand in a poem in their writing test. It's (6) for students to write a good argumentative (议论的) or narrative (记叙的) story.Wu started working on his piece in the last 50 minutes of the test. Since he spent almost half that time (7) his ideas, Wu decided to save time by writing a poem that needed fewer words than other types of writing.In the exam, he was asked to (8) why it's not wise for people to make judgments using their hearts rather than their heads."When I looked out the window, the shining sun gave me some ideas on a similar truth. People with sunglasses will say the sunlight is red, orange, yellow, or blue, but everyone knows that its real color is white," he said.

More language inputMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between “being a writer ”and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You've got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whoselonging is never rewarded (报答). When I left a 20-year job in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a writer, I had no hopes at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn't gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years.I wasn't going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I would keep putting my dream to the test ---- even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1.The passage is meant to ________.E.warn young people of the hardship that a successful writer has toexperienceF.advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professionalwriterG.show young people it's unrealistic for writers to seek wealth andfameH.encourage young people to seek good jobs2.What can be concluded from the passage?A. Real writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer's success depends on luck rather than on effort.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty.D. The chances for a writer to become successful are small.3. .Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing work?A. He wasn't able to produce a single book.B. He hadn't seen a change for the better.C. He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.D. He found his dream would never come true.4.“Shadow land”in the last sentence refers to ________.A. the wonderland one often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. a world that exists only in one's imaginationD. the state of uncertainty before one's final goal is reached Key:Unit 3II.

③高聚物聚集态
晶态
非极性
因此高分子溶解比小分子要复杂得多。
极性
聚合物溶解过程的特点
a 溶解过程缓慢,且先溶胀再溶解 b 非晶态聚合物比结晶聚合物易于溶解
c 交联聚合物只溶胀,不溶解
18
3.1.1 溶解过程 3.1.1.1非晶态聚合物的溶胀和溶解


线形非晶态聚合物溶解过程分两步进行:首先溶胀(溶剂分子 和高分子的某些链段混合),然后溶解(溶剂分子和整个高 分子链的混合)。 溶解度与分子量有关。通常分子量大的,溶解度小;分子量 小的,溶解度大。 提高温度一般可以增加其溶解度;降低温度则减小其溶解度。
第3章 高分子溶液


高分子溶液:聚合物以分子状态分散在溶剂中所形 成的均相体系。 高分子溶液的分类: (A)稀溶液:浓度< 1%,粘度小且稳定性好,处 于热力学平衡态的真溶液; (B)高分子浓溶液:一般浓度> 5% ; (C)高分子的亚浓溶液 对于稀溶液,随着浓度的提高,孤立存在的无规线 团分子开始相互接触,继而交叠,形成所谓的“亚 浓溶液”。
例:聚丙烯腈
混合溶剂的选择:
单一组分的溶剂对高聚物的溶解效果 不好,可以考虑使用混合溶剂: δ混=δ1Φ1+δ2Φ2 Φ1,Φ2:两种纯溶剂的体积分数; δ1, δ2:两种纯溶剂的溶度参数。
(三) “高分子-溶剂相互作用参数 1小于 1/2 ” 原则
高分子-溶剂相互作用参数 1反映高分子 与溶剂混合时相互作用能的变化。
1 < 1/2 聚合物在溶剂中溶解 1 =1/2 θ溶液状态
1 2
1 > 1/2 聚合物在溶剂中不溶解, 或者会从溶液中 沉淀析出
小结




1名词:高分子溶液;溶度参数 。 2掌握聚合物溶解过程的特点,以及典 型的几种聚合物的良溶剂。 3掌握溶度参数的测定方法以及选择混 合溶剂溶解聚合物的计算。 4熟练掌握对聚合物溶解能力的判定原 则。

ModerateEssay/Problems1.List and define the four major drivers of supply chain performance.Answer: Facilities are the places in the supply chain network whereproduct is stored, assembled, or fabricated. The two major types offacilities are production sites and storage sites.Inventory is all raw materials, work in process, and finished goodswithin a supply chain. Inventory is an important supply chain driverbecause changing inventory policies can dramatically alter the supply chain’s efficie ncy and responsiveness.Transportation entails moving inventory from point to point in thesupply chain. Transportation can take the form of many combinations of modes and routes.Information consists of data and analysis concerning facilities,inventory, transportation, and customers throughout the supply chain.Information is potentially the biggest driver of performance in thesupply chain as it directly affects each of the other drivers.Difficulty: Moderate2.Explain the supply chain decision-making framework and the role of thefour major drivers.Answer: The goal of a supply chain strategy is to strike the balancebetween responsiveness and efficiency, resulting in a strategic fit with the competitive strategy. To reach this goal, a company uses the foursupply chain drivers discussed earlier. For each of the individualdrivers, supply chain managers must make a trade-off between efficiency and responsiveness. The combined impact of these four drivers thendetermines the responsiveness and efficiency of the entire supply chain.Most companies begin with a competitive strategy and then decide whattheir supply chain strategy ought to be. The supply chain strategydetermines how the supply chain should perform with respect toefficiency and responsiveness. The supply chain must then use the supply chain drivers to reach the performance level the supply chain strategydictates.Difficulty: Moderate3.Explain the basic trade-off between responsiveness and efficiency foreach of the major drivers of supply chain performance.Answer: The fundamental trade-off when making facilities decisions isbetween the cost of the number, location, and type of facilities(efficiency) and the level of responsiveness that these facilitiesprovide the company’s customers.The fundamental trade-off when making inventory decisions is betweenresponsiveness and efficiency. Increasing inventory will generally make the supply chain more responsive to the customer. This choice, however, comes at a cost as the added inventory decreases efficiency. Therefore,a supply chain manager can use inventory as one of the drivers forreaching the level of responsiveness and efficiency the competitivestrategy targets.The fundamental trade-off for transportation is between the cost oftransporting a given product (efficiency) and the speed with which that product is transported (responsiveness). The transportation choiceinfluences other drivers such as inventory and facilities. When supplychain managers think about making transportation decisions, they framethe decision in terms of this trade-off.Good information systems can help a firm improve both its responsiveness and efficiency. The information driver is used to improve theperformance of other drivers and the use of information is based on the strategic position the other drivers support. Accurate information canhelp a firm improve efficiency by decreasing inventory andtransportation costs. Accurate information can improve responsiveness by helping a supply chain better match supply and demand.Difficulty: Moderate4.Explain the role of each of the major drivers of supply chainperformance.Answer: Facilities are the where of the supply chain if we think ofinventory as what is being passed along the supply chain andtransportation as how it is passed along. They are the locations to orfrom which the inventory is transported. Within a facility, inventory is either processed or transformed into another state (manufacturing) or it is stored before being shipped to the next stage (warehousing).Inventory exists in the supply chain because of a mismatch betweensupply and demand. An important role that inventory plays in the supplychain is to increase the amount of demand that can be satisfied byhaving product ready and available when the customer wants it. Anothersignificant role inventory plays is to reduce cost by exploiting anyeconomies of scale that may exist during both production anddistribution. Inventory is spread throughout the supply chain from rawmaterials to work in process to finished goods that suppliers,manufacturers, distributors, and retailers hold.Inventory is a major source of cost in a supply chain and it has a hugeimpact on responsiveness. The location and quantity of inventory canmove the supply chain from one end of the responsiveness spectrum to the other.Inventory also has a significant impact on the material flow time in asupply chain. Material flow time is the time that elapses between thepoint at which Another important area where inventory has a significantimpact is throughput.Inventory and flow time are synonymous in a supply chain. Managersshould use actions that lower the amount of inventory needed withoutincreasing cost or reducing responsiveness, because reduced flow timecan be a significant advantage in a supply chain.Transportation moves product between different stages in a supply chain.Like the other supply chain drivers, transportation has a large impacton both responsiveness and efficiency. Faster transportation, whether in the form of different modes of transportation or different amounts being transported, allows a supply chain to be more responsive but reduces its efficiency. The type of transportation a company uses also affects theinventory and facility locations in the supply chain.Information could be overlooked as a major supply chain driver becauseit does not have a physical presence. Information, however, deeplyaffects every part of the supply chain. Its impact is easy tounderestimate as information affects a supply chain in many differentways. Information serves as the connection between the supply chain’svarious stages, allowing them to coordinate and bring about many of thebenefits of maximizing total supply chain profitability. Information isalso crucial to the daily operations of each stage in a supply chain.For instance, a production scheduling system uses information on demandto create a schedule that allows a factory to produce the right products in an efficient manner. A warehouse management system uses informationto create visibility of the warehouse’s inventory. The company can then use this information to determine whether new orders can be filled.Difficulty: Hard5.Explain the role of each of the major drivers of supply chainperformance in the competitive strategy.Answer: Facilities and their corresponding capacities to perform theirfunctions are a key driver of supply chain performance in terms ofresponsiveness and efficiency. For example, companies can gain economies of scale when a product is manufactured or stored in only one location;this centralization increases efficiency. The cost reduction, however,comes at the expense of responsiveness, as many of a company’scustomers may be located far from the production facility. The oppositeis also true. Locating facilities close to customers increases thenumber of facilities needed and consequently reduces efficiency. If thecustomer demands and is willing to pay for the responsiveness thathaving numerous facilities adds, however, then this facilities decisionhelps meet the company’s competitive strategy goals.Inventory plays a significant role in a supply chain’s ability tosupport a firm’s competitive strategy. If a firm’s competitivestrategy requires a very high level of responsiveness, a company can use inventory to achieve this responsiveness by locating large amounts ofinventory close to the customer. Conversely, a company can also useinventory to make itself more efficient by reducing inventory throughcentralized stocking. The latter strategy would support a competitivestrategy of being a low-cost producer. The trade-off implicit in theinventory driver is between the responsiveness that results from moreinventory and the efficiency that results from less inventory.The role of transportation in a company’s competitive strategy figuresprominently when the company is considering the target customer’s needs.If a firm’s competitive strategy targets a customer that demands a very high level of responsiveness, and that customer is willing to pay forthis responsiveness, then a firm can use transportation as one driverfor making the supply chain more responsive. The opposite is true aswell. If a company’s competitive strategy targets customers whose maindecision criterion is price, then the company can use transportation tolower the cost of the product at the expense of responsiveness. As acompany may use both inventory and transportation to increaseresponsiveness or efficiency, the optimal decision for the company often means finding the right balance between the two.Information is a driver whose importance has grown as companies have used it to become both more efficient and more responsive. The tremendous growth of the importance of information technology is a testimony to the impact information can have on improving a company. Like all the other drivers, however, even with information, companies reach a point when they must make the trade-off between efficiency and responsiveness.Difficulty: Hard。
