Advantages of Multibusiness Corporations
[ send me this paper ]
The structure of a business can be the single most important aspect of whether or not it weathers the economic storms of the modern world. The consumer may not know the nature of the structure; whether it is a sole proprietorship, a partnership, a corporation or a limited liability company - but it may make a significant difference to the amount of taxes that are paid, how the employee is able to share in the profit, the response that can be made to a lawsuit and how it is bought and, or, sold. This 5 page paper first describes the alternative structures, then explores the advantages in a multibusiness corporation. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Airline Strategy: A Comparison of Southwest, Delta, United, and American Airlines
[ send me this paper ]

Notes that this success revolves around Southwest’s emphasis on being a short-haul company; one that doesn’t pretend to offer many of the amenities of the industry icons like Delta, United and American Airlines. Its emphasis is getting from point A to point B in as expedient and efficient manner as possible. The author asserts that while the other airlines wouldn’t benefit as much from changing their route structure they would benefit from a greater concentration on efficiency and less on customer amenities.

Alternative Solution for a Potentially Compromising Business Situation
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page solution to a situation facing a new-hire at a company which manufactures therapeutic medical devices. The new-hire has been instructed to misrepresent their volume needs to an outside provider with the intent of canceling the order after the smaller volume which is really needed had been obtained. Although the supervisor sees this as the only means of obtaining the small quantity of specialized tool upon which company survival rides (a volume which the outside firm could not feasibly produce with any profitability for themselves), the new-hire recognizes that misrepresenting his company’s intentions to another company would not only be a sure way of gaining an even worse industry reputation than what his new company already had but quite possibly immerse the company in a costly and counterproductive legal proceedings. The new-hire figures out an alternative approach which preserves both his personal ethics and his company’s reputation. No sources are listed.
