Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: W: Jack, sit down and listen. This is important. We'll have to tackle the problems of the exporting step by step. And the first move is to get an up-to-date picture of where we stand now. M: Why don't we just concentrate on expanding here at home? W: Of course, we should hold on to our position here. But you must admit the market here is limited. M: Yes, but it's safe. The government keeps out foreigners with import controls. So I must admit I feel sure we could hold our own against foreign bikes, W: I agree. That's why I am suggesting exporting. Because I feel we canpete with the best of them. M: What you are really saying is that we'd make more profit by selling bikes abroad, where we have,a cost advantage and can charge high prices. W: Exactly. M: But, wait a minute. Packaging, shipping, finaetc. will push up our cost and we could end up no better off, maybe worse off. W: OK. Now there are extra costs involved. But if we do it right, they can be built into the price of the bike and we can still be competitive. M: How sure are you about our chances of success in the foreign market? W: Well, that's the sticky one. It's going to need a lot of research. I'm hoping to get your help. Well, come on, Jack. Is it worth it, or not? M: There will be a lot of problems. W: Nothing we can't handle. M: Um... I'm not that hopeful. But, yes, I think we should go ahead with the feasibility study. W: Marvelous, Jack. I was hoping you be on my side.
