The three major factors favoring globalization are

  1. Cultural, commercial, and technical.
  2. Flexibility, proximity, and adaptability.
  3. Political, technological, and social.
  4. Ambition, positioning, and organization.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The new economy is driven by the digital revolution that facilitates international commerce by providing capabilities that did not exist a relatively few years ago. It is also driven by such political events as the fall of the Soviet Union, the participation of China in the world economic system, the emergence of the European Union, and the creation of other regional free trade zones. These technological and political factors are intertwined with social changes, for example, greater concern for the rights of women and minorities; the advance of multilingualism; and the convergence of tastes in fashion, music, and certain other cultural factors. Accordingly, these factors favor globalization by reducing trade barriers, reducing cost of coordination, increasing economies of scale, and encouraging standardization and global branding.



Which method of expanding into international markets is most likely the riskiest?

  1. A local storage and sale arrangement.

Explanation:

Direct investment has many advantages:
(1) cheaper materials or labor,
(2) receipt of investment incentives from the host government,
(3) a strong relationship with interested parties in the host country,
(4) control of the investment,
