One company that have adopted a cost minimisation strategy is Ryanair. Ryanair were forced into adopting this strategy due to two main reasons; the EU recession and higher oil prices. In order to cost minimise Ryanair chose to cut capacity by grounding 80 of their 270 planes, leaving only 190 available for operation, by doing this it allowed them to fill their operating planes easier as the demand for a seat on a plane had increased, due to less planes flying. Ryanair were also faced with the huge problem of the increase in oil costs and therefore needed a way of increasing their prices without losing a high proportion of customers to competitors. Ryanair were successful in doing this because of their option to cut their capacity and ground 80 planes.
This legislation was created as a result of numerous fraudulent corporate instances prior to 2002 which resulted in weakened US markets and little to no trust from investors. The general purpose of this legislation was to implement new rules in the accounting industry that hold higher level accounting personnel accountable in accounting schemes and regain the confidence of investors as it pertains to the US market in hopes that the market will strengthen as a result of the new rules (Bing, 2007). The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which I may refer to as SOX moving forward, is made up of eleven titles and various sections within these titles (United States Code, Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, 2002).

Majority Leader Robert Dole (R, Kan.) has been one of the most vocal proponents of reducing tort settlements. Dole has claimed that legal and insurance costs stemming from malpractice litigation are not only burdensome to health care professionals, but are ultimately passed on to patients. Those costs, Dole says, raise the average American's medical expenses by about $1,200 a year. In 1995, the House passed sweeping legislation that would have limited the overall number of tort lawsuits in the U.S. and placed a $250,000 cap on punitive damages. The legislation was ultimately vetoed by Clinton, who said the law did not adequately protect consumers' rights.
However, opponents of the Fair Minimum Wage Act of 2013 argue that with a higher minimum wage, businesses will offer fewer jobs, thus increasing unemployment. The website, “An Economic Sense”, pulled information from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and presents graphs comparing the real minimum wage and the unemployment percentage in a given year. In 1975, real minimum wage and unemployment increased. In 1968, real minimum wage increased but unemployment fell. These figures are just a small example of what the graph shows: that there is no connection between the increase of minimum wage and the unemployment rates.
The Organization factor that was responsible for BSE’s problem was BSE’s decision to customize the new SAP ERP system extensively. During the initial implementation of the SAP ERP software, instead of adopting the best-practice business processes that was available with SAP Software, BSE decided to customize it to look more like its old ERP system ‘Rigel’. The implementation process took much longer than the management had planned for and that resulted in the delay of their launch date for the new ERP system. This caused their costs to go up by 50%. People were trained much earlier in the process and so they had to be trained again when the system went live, and further the system was not tested properly before it went live.
