Q:
The progress of an issue is shaped by the actions of firms and other interests and by the characteristics of the institutions in whose arenas the issue is addressed.
Q:
All nonmarket issues pass through the five stages of the nonmarket issue life cycle.
Q:
As an issue progresses through its life cycle, managements range of discretion in addressing the issue correspondingly increases.
Q:
The first step that a nonmarket issue passes through is issue identification.
Q:
The nonmarket issue life cycle is a theory that relates the stage of development of an issue to its impact on a firm.
Q:
One of the approaches to effectively manage nonmarket issues is to respond to nonmarket issues only when they are strong enough to force the firm to act.
Q:
Change in the nonmarket environment does not come from market forces.
Q:
Renewed confidence in markets and the failure of socialist economic systems spurred a wave of privatization in both developed and developing countries.
Q:
Nonmarket issues come from both external forces and the firms actions.
Q:
All institutions represent a set of countries.
Q:
Institutions are not unitary bodies.
Q:
Institutions include only principal government institutions and cannot be established by private parties.
Q:
Nongovernmental institutions include the news media that provides information to society as well as public sentiment composed of societal expectations and norms of behavior that arise from ethics and culture.
Q:
Information is the basic unit of analysis and the focus of nonmarket action.
Q:
The nonmarket environment of a firm is characterized by four Is: independence, individuality, ideas and income.
Q:
In the market environment, strategies are intermediated by public and private institutions, whereas in the nonmarket environment, strategies are intermediated by markets.
Q:
In the nonmarket environment, legislation, regulation, administrative decisions, and public pressure are the result of competition involving individuals, activists, interest groups, and firms.
Q:
In formulating nonmarket strategies, managers may draw on the expertise of lawyers, communications specialists, Washington representatives, and community relations specialists.
Q:
Managers do not participate in the implementation of nonmarket strategies.
Q:
Nonmarket issues high on firms agendas include environmental protection, health and safety, regulation and deregulation, intellectual property protection, international trade policy, antitrust as well as other issues such as human rights.
Q:
Activities in the nonmarket environment may be voluntary, as when the firm cooperates with government officials or an environmental group, or involuntary, as in the case of government regulation or a boycott of a firms product led by an activist group.
Q:
The nonmarket environment is characterized by the social, political, and legal arrangements that structure interactions outside of, but in conjunction, with markets and private agreements.
Q:
Effective management in the market environment is sufficient for superior performance of the firm over its competitors.
Q:
The long-run sustainability of competitive advantage requires managing effectively in the nonmarket environment.
Q:
Firms have more control over their future in their nonmarket environment than they have in the markets in which they operate.
Q:
Blenman Corporation, based in the United States, arranged a 2-year, $1,000,000 loan to fund a project in Mexico. The loan is denominated in Mexican pesos, carries a 7.50% nominal rate, and requires equal semiannual payments. The exchange rate at the time of the loan was 5.75 pesos per dollar, but it dropped to 5.10 pesos per dollar before the first payment came due. The loan was not hedged in the foreign exchange market. Thus, Blenman must convert U.S. funds to Mexican pesos to make its payments. If the exchange rate remains at 5.10 pesos per dollar through the end of the loan period, what effective annual interest rate will Blenman end up paying on the loan? Do not round the intermediate calculations and round the final answer to two decimal places.

Suppose a U.S. firm buys $200,000 worth of television tubes from a Mexican manufacturer for delivery in 60 days with payment to be made in 90 days (30 days after the goods are received).
