There are both strengths and weaknesses that support the idea that the weaknesses in German war production was down to poor coordination within the war economy. Some of the strengths include the amount of war ministries that were set up at the time, with the main one being the Ministry of Armaments with Albert Speer at the head. Military expenditure was another reason that contributes to the idea that the economy was poorly coordinated, as more concentration was put on matters that were not that significant. Statements made against this idea would be that German’s military production did not increase at the same rate as its enemies, such as Britain and the USA. Fighting between some of the leading Nazi’s also meant that it would have been near impossible to put together an effective economy with all missions heading towards the same aim.
Could Hubspot not hire and assign a proportional split of internal software engineers, and sales support staff each dedicated to the market segments Hubspot serves? Verizon offers solutions, products, updates, and customer service for individual users, small businesses and large corporations, all across a multitude of products. I believe the argument that Hubspot should focus on either Marketer Marys or Owner Ollies entirely is a fallacy. Although Marketer Marys (MM) have a higher CLV, lower churn rate, and appear to be growing faster compared to Owner Ollie, (OO) it does not mean that OO’s aren’t profitable and should be ignored. In fact, it is entirely possible that OOs could be more profitable given the market size of OOs is much larger, and ‘Small-size businesses’

What about issuing debt in his Johnson Services company to pay for the Smith Company-would that raise debt to equity issues? Mr. Jones will need to evaluate the existing stocks portfolio for Smithon Widgets before resorting to outright purchase of stock even if it was indicated that the company is profitable. He needs to investigate further the reason of the absence of a single majority shareholder from the existing thirty shareholders and how it operated in that condition. Issuing debt by Johnson Services Company to pay for the Smithon Company will certainly raise debt to equity issues. If a lot of debt is used to finance increased operations then it will incur a high debt to equity ratio, the company could potentially generate more earnings than it would have without this outside financing.
Diagnosis C&S wholesale grocers grew from a small company in 1918, to a multimillion dollar business through innovation and attention to customer service.

His problem of whether or not to produce the plastic ring is complicated by one significant constraint: excess inventory of special steel used to make steel rings that cannot be sold and disposal may cost money in addition to the money already spent to purchase the materials. This leaves him with making a decision to determine the cost to benefit of various alternatives. Thus, Bridgeman’s problem is determining how to keep IG competitive in a changing market functioning under various constraints, staying true to IG’s core business values and ensuring that IG is in the strongest market position as a result of his decision. Plainly stated, should Bridgeman produce plastic rings instead of steel rings despite his excess inventory of material used to produce steel rings? Background Information Industrial Grinders is a manufacturer that produces industrial equipment and parts for such equipment and has done so for over 70 years.
Situation Analysis Issue and Opportunity Identification Kuiper Leda has recently received an order to supply 250,000 Electronic Control Units (ECU) and 35,000 Radio Frequency Identification Device (RFID) tags which is a volume above the existing capacity levels the plant is capable of handling. Given the issue at hand Kuiper Leda has the opportunity to develop a plan to increase its current capacity limitations and strengthen its reputation in the industry. “Providing the capability to satisfy current and future demand is a fundamental responsibility of operations management. An appropriate balance between capacity and demand can generate high profits and satisfied customers, whereas getting the balance 'wrong' can be potentially disastrous. Yet although planning for, and controlling capacity is a major responsibility of operations managers, it should also involve other functional managers.” (Slack, 2008).
