Term Paper of Dbbl

Introduction: To finance their investments firms use retained earnings, new borrowings or the issue of stock. The financing decision involves i) dividend and ii) the capital structure. Dividend policy involves the decision to pay out earnings versus retaining them for reinvestment in the firm, and dividend policy decisions can have either favorable or unfavorable effects on the price of a firm’s stock. Cash distributions are made to stockholders form the firm’s earnings, whether those earnings were generated in the current period or in previous periods. Origin of the Report:During this semester of Summer 2010 in MBA program of East West University, we are required to submit a term paper in the course Corporate Finance: â€Å"An Appraisal of Dividend Policy and Capital Structure of An Organization†. We have chosen PRAN for our term project. Objectives of the Report: The general objective is to prepare and submit the term project within specified time by having an idea and over viewing the PRAN, their Dividend Policy and their Capital Structure. Scope of the Report: The scope is limited to over viewing PRAN their dividend policy and the Capital Structure they have adopted for their organization.Limitations of the Study: Secondary data were used in this study as result it may differ from actual data. As a group, we have also faced some difficulties in compiling and discussing it due to unavailability of all members at the same time. The absence of solid and verse knowledge about dividend policy is absent and we have taken it as an addition in our learning curve. Methodology: The report is originated from secondary data sources- 1. The Company’s Annual Report 2. DES website 3. Different Articles from Internet 4. Other related websitesCompany Profile PRAN: PRAN stands for Programme for Rural Advancement Nationally. â€Å"PRAN† is currently the most well known household name among the millions of people in Bangladesh and abroad also . Since its inception in 1980, PRAN Group has grown up in stature and became the largest fruit and vegetable processor in Bangladesh. It also has the distinction of achieving prestigious certificate like ISO 9001:2000, and being the largest exporter of processed agro products with compliance of HALAL & HACCP to more than 70 countries from Bangladesh.PRAN is the pioneer in Bangladesh to be involved in contract farming and procures raw material directly from the farmers and processes through state of the art machinery at our several factories into hygienically packed food and drinks products.

According to ICAI, â€Å"Dividend is a distribution to shareholders out of profits or reserves available for this purpose. † In other words we can say that a corporation makes Dividend payments to its shareholder. It is the portion of corporate profits paid out to its stockholders.When a corporation earns a profit at the end of a financial year, that profit can be uses by two different ways: it can either be re-invested in the business or it can be pai d to the shareholders as a dividend. Many corporations retain a portion of their earnings and pay the remainder as a dividend. Dividend Policy and Stock Value: There are various theories that try to explain the relationship of a firm's dividend policy and common stock value. Dividend policy is the policy a company uses to decide how much it will pay out to shareholders in dividends. A firm has different options to deal with its earnings.It can give all their earnings as dividend or it can retain all its earnings as retained earnings. The firm can also declare a portion of its earnings as dividend and can retain other portion as retained earnings. Dividends may be in the form of cash or stock. Most secure and stable companies offer dividends to their stockholders. Their share prices might not move much, but the dividend attempts to make up for this. High-growth companies  rarely offer dividends because all of their profits are reinvested to help sustain  higher-than-average  gr owth. Dividend Relevance Theory:The value of a firm is affected by its dividend policy – the optimal dividend policy is the one that maximize the firm’s value. Optimal Dividend Policy: Proponents believe that there is a dividend policy that strikes a balance between current dividends and future growth that maximizes the firm's stock price. Dividend Irrelevance Theory: The theory states that a firm’s dividend policy has no effect on either its value or its cost of capital. Bird-in-the-Hand Theory: It states that dividends are relevant. Remember that total return (k) is equal to dividend yield plus capital gains.Myron Gordon and John Linter took this equation and assumed that k would decrease as a company's payout increased. As such, as a company increases its payout ratio, investors become concerned that the company's future capital gains will dissipate since the retained earnings that the company reinvests into the business will be less. Gordon and Linter argued that investors value dividends more than capital gains when making decisions related to stocks. In this theory â€Å"the bird in the hand' is referring to dividends and â€Å"the bush† is referring to capital gains.The traditional argument in favour of dividend is the idea that dividends reduce risk because they bring shareholders’ cash inflows forward. Although shareholders can create their own dividends by selling part of their holdings, this entails trading costs, which are saved when the firm pays dividends. The risk reduction or bird in the hand argument is associated with Graham and Dodd (1951) and with Gordon (1959) and it is often defended as follows. By paying dividends the firm brings forward cash inflows to shareholders, thereby reducing the uncertainty associated with future cash flows.In terms of the discounted dividend equation of firm value, the idea is that the required rate of return demanded by investors (the discount rate) increases with the plough -back ratio. Although the increased earnings retention brings about higher expected future dividend, this additional dividend stream is more than offset by the increase in the discount rate. This argument overlooks the fact that the risk of the firm is determined by its investment decisions and not by how these are financed.The required rate of return is influenced by the risk of the investments and should not change if these are financed from retained earnings rather than from the proceeds of new equity issues. As noted by Easterbrook (1984), in spite of paying dividends the firm does not withdraw from risky investments, thus the risk is merely transferred to new investors. Reasons for Paying Dividends: 1. Clientele Effect: The investors in your company like dividends. 2. The Signaling Story: Dividends can be signals to the market that you believe that you have good cash flow prospects in the future. 3.The Wealth Appropriation Story: Dividends are one way of transferring wealth fro m lenders to equity investors (this is good for equity investors but bad for lenders) Types of Dividend Policies: 1. Constant-Payout-Ratio: Constant-Payout-Ratio is a dividend policy based on the payment of a certain percentage of earnings to owners in each dividend period. The problem with this policy is that if the firm’s earnings drop or if a loss occur, the dividend may low or nonexistent. 2. Regular Dividend Policy: Regular Dividend Policy is a dividend policy based on the payment of fixed amount of dividend in each period.It provides the owners with positive information, thereby minimizing their uncertainty. 3. Low Regular and Extra Dividend Policy: Low regular and Extra Dividend Policy refers to a dividend policy based on paying low regular dividend, supplemented by additional dividend when earnings are higher than normal in a given period. Nature of Dividend Decision The dividend decision of the firm is crucial for the finance manager because it determines: 1. The amo unt of profit to be distributed among the shareholders, and 2. The amount of profit to be retained in the firm. There is a reciprocal relationship between cash dividends and retained earnings.While taking the dividend decision the management take into account the effect of the decision on the maximization of shareholders' wealth. Maximizing the market value of shares is the objective. Dividend pay out or retention is guided by this objective. Factors Affecting Dividend Policy: A. External Factors B. Internal Factors A. External Factors Affecting Dividend Policy 1. General State of Economy: In case of uncertain economic and business conditions, the management may like to retain whole or large part of earnings to build up reserves to absorb future shocks.In the period of depression the management may also retain a large part of its earnings to preserve the firm's liquidity position. In periods of prosperity the management may not be liberal in dividend payments because of availability of larger profitable investment opportunities. In periods of inflation, the management may retain large portion of earnings to finance replacement of obsolete machines. 2. State of Capital Market: Favorable Market: liberal dividend policy. Unfavorable market: Conservative dividend policy. 3. Legal Restrictions: Companies Act has laid down various restrictions regarding the declaration of dividend:Dividends can only be paid out of: Current or past profits of the company. A company cannot declare dividends unless: It has provided for present as well as all arrears of depreciation. Certain percentage of net profits has been transferred to the reserve of the company. Past-accumulated profits can be used for declaration of dividends only as per the rules framed by the Central Government 4. Contractual Restrictions: Lenders sometimes may put restrictions on the dividend payments to protect their interests (especially when the firm is experiencing liquidity problems) B.Internal Factors af fecting dividend decisions 1. Desire of the Shareholders: Though the directors decide the rate of dividend, it is always at the interest of the shareholders. Shareholders expect two types of returns: [i] Capital Gains: i. e. , an increase in the market value of shares. [ii] Dividends: regular return on their investment. Cautious investors look for dividends because, [i] It reduces uncertainty (capital gains are uncertain). [ii] Indication of financial strength of the company. [iii] Need for income: Some invest in shares so as to get regular income to meet their living expenses. . Financial Needs of the Company: If the company has profitable projects and it is costly to raise funds, it may decide to retain the earnings. 3. Nature of earnings: A company, which has stable earnings, can afford to have a higher divided payout ratio 4. Desire to retain the control of management: Additional public issue of share will dilute the control of management. 5. Liquidity position: Payment of divid end results in cash outflow. A company may have adequate earning but it may not have sufficient funds to pay dividends. Apprising Dividend Policy of PRAN: Year |NI |EPS |Dividend Per |Dividend Payout Ratio | | |(in Millions) | |Share | | |2000 |33. 76 |42. 20% |20. 00% |47. 39% | |2001 |41. 99 |52. 49% |20. 00% |38. 10% | |2002 |43. 41 |54. 26% |25. 00% |46. 07% | |2003 |44. 39 |55. 49% |24. 00% |43. 25% | |2004 |40. 31 |50. 39% |24. 00% |47. 3% | |2005 |40. 77 |50. 96% |26. 00% |51. 02% | |2006 |28. 95 |36. 19% |26. 00% |71. 84% | |2007 |29. 33 |36. 66% |26. 00% |70. 92% | |2008 |35. 95 |44. 94% |28. 00% |62. 31% | |2009 |39. 97 |49. 96% |29. 00% |58. 05% | Table: 1 From the table 1 we see that in 2000 and 2001 PRAN have paid a cash dividend of BDT 20 per share in 2000 and 2001; in 2002 the dividend payment was BDT 25 per share.In 2003 to 2004 and 2005 to 2007 they have paid a cash dividend of BDT 24 and BDT 26 per share respectively. In the year 2008 and 2009 the cash dividend per share was BDT 28 and 29 respectively. Here we see that the dividend has increased in last two year, although the Net Income of the company decreased. However the EPS has also increased during the last two years and the same pattern can be seen in the Market Price of the share. [pic] Figure: 1 From figure 1 we can say that the dividend payment of the PRAN is certain and stable, regardless with earnings.As we see that despite of a drop in the earning in the year 2006 and 2007 the company maintained a constant cash dividend payment which is BDT 26 per Share and when the earnings increased in the year 2008 and 2009 the Dividend payment also increased. [pic] Figure: 2 The Dividend payout ratio indicates the percentage of each unit earned that a firm distributes to the owners in form of cash |Dividend Payout Ratio |= |Dividend Per Share | | | |Earnings Per Share |If we look at the figure 2 we see that to maintain a steady dividend payment per share each year they had to make a huge payme nt out of the Net Income. In 2006 and 2007 the dividend payout ratio was above 70% and in 2008 and 2009 it was above 58%. According to the Regular Dividend Policy the payment of the dividend is a fixed amount in each period. The Regular Dividend Policy also tries to establish to pay out a certain percentage of earnings, however it tries to stabilize the dividend by pay out a certain amount of dividend and it adjusts the dividend towards the target payout as proven earnings increases.In short we can say that PRAN is following the Regular Dividend Policy Constrains of Regular Dividend Policy: If we have a look at the figure 1 we see that the earnings of PRAN fluctuates year to year for this Regular dividend policy may sometimes prove dangerous. Once a company adopts the regular dividend policy, any adverse change in the dividend payment may result in serious damage regarding the financial standing of the company in the mind of the investors. The same problem is been experienced by PRA N despite of a drop in the earnings that they had to maintain the same amount of dividend.Appropriate type of Dividend Policy: A Stock market tends to be very efficient in the allocation of capital to its highest-value users. That market also helps increase savings and investment, which are essential for economic development. An equity market, by allowing diversification across a variety of assets, helps reduce the risk the investors must bear, thus reducing the cost of capital, which in turn spurs investment and economic growth. However, volatility and market efficiency are two important features which will ultimately determine the effectiveness of the stock market in economic development.In contrast to that the stock market of Bangladesh which is informationally inefficient, investors face difficulty in choosing the optimal investment as information on corporate performance is slow or less available. The resulting uncertainty induce investors either to withdraw from the market unt il this uncertainty is resolved or discourage them to invest funds for long term. Moreover, most of the time it is seen that investors are not rewarded for taking on higher risk by investing in the stock market, or excess volatility weakens investor’s confidence as a result they people avoid investing their savings in the stock market.Due to the imperfect market and the uncertainty of return the investors always aim for short term investment as a result they prefer dividend rather maximizing the firm’s wealth. The regular dividend policy, which ensures a fixed amount of dividend to be paid to the investor regardless to the company’s income during the period, helps to reduce the uncertainly for the investors. For this the Regular Dividend Policy is the appropriate for PRAN.

Market Value Per Share: Table: 2 From the table 2 we can say that PRAN has never issued any Bonus shares from 2000 to 2009. However they have maintained a steady dividend payment that shows a positive slope. The market price is very fluctuating in 2005 the MV was 519. 25 but in 2006 it went down to 386. 00, in 2007 it was 382. 63 but in 2008 the MV was 1142. 00. [pic]Figure: 2 From the figure 2 we see that till 2007 the Share Market Price and the Net Asset Value Per share is very close however from 2008 the difference between the Market Price and Net Asset value per Share increase d despite of a drop in the Net Income. In the year 2008 and 2009 the corporation has paid a cash dividend of BDT 28 and 29 per share respectively and the EPS in 2008 was 44. 94% and in 2009 was 49. 96. From the above mentioned information we can say that there is a high possibility that the reason behind the increase in the market price of the share imperfect market condition in the Capital Market in Bangladesh.The imperfect market situation might be the result of Syndication or by spreading rumor in the market, which caused the Share Price of PRAN to go up. Capital Structure: In finance, capital structure refers to the way a corporation finances its assets through some combination of equity, debt, or hybrid securities. In other words we can say that Capital Structure is the mix of a company's long-term debt, specific short-term debt, common equity and preferred equity. The capital structure is how a firm finances its overall operations and growth by using different sources of funds .Debt comes in the form of bond issues or long-term notes payable, while equity is classified as common stock, preferred stock or retained earnings. Short-term debt such as working capital requirements is also considered to be part of the capital structure. For example, a firm that sells BDT 20 billion in equity and BDT 80 billion in debt is said to be 20% equity-financed and 80% debt-financed. The firm's ratio of debt to total financing, 80% in this example is referred to as the firm's leverage. In reality, capital structure may be highly complex and include dozens of sources.Gearing Ratio is the proportion of the capital employed of the firm which come from outside of the business finance, e. g. by taking a short term loan etc. A company's proportion of short and long-term debt is considered when analyzing capital structure. When people refer to capital structure they are most likely referring to a firm's debt-to-equity ratio, which provides insight into how risky a company is. Us ually a company more heavily financed by debt poses greater risk, as this firm is relatively highly levered.The Modigliani-Miller theorem, proposed by Franco Modigliani and Merton Miller, forms the basis for modern thinking on capital structure, though it is generally viewed as a purely theoretical result since it assumes away many important factors in the capital structure decision. The theorem states that, in a perfect market, how a firm is financed is irrelevant to its value. This result provides the base with which to examine real world reasons why capital structure is relevant, that is, a company's value is affected by the capital structure it employs.Some other reasons include bankruptcy costs, agency costs, taxes, and information asymmetry. This analysis can then be extended to look at whether there is in fact an optimal capital structure: the one which maximizes the value of the firm. Capital structure in the real world if capital structure is irrelevant in a perfect market, then imperfections which exist in the real world must be the cause of its relevance. The theories below try to address some of these imperfections, by relaxing assumptions made in the M model.Capital Structure Theory: Trade-off theory of capital structure Trade-off theory allows the bankruptcy cost to exist. It states that there is an advantage to financing with debt (namely, the tax benefit of debts) and that there is a cost of financing with debt (the bankruptcy costs of debt). The marginal benefit of further increases in debt declines as debt increases, while the marginal cost increases, so that a firm that is optimizing its overall value will focus on this trade-off when choosing how much debt and equity to use for financing.Empirically, this theory may explain differences in D/E ratios between industries, but it doesn't explain differences within the same industry. Pecking order theory Pecking Order theory tries to capture the costs of asymmetric information. It states that co mpanies prioritize their sources of financing (from internal financing to equity) according to the law of least effort, or of least resistance, preferring to raise equity as a financing means â€Å"of last resort†.Hence: internal debt is used first; when that is depleted, then debt is issued; and when it is no longer sensible to issue any more debt, equity is issued. This theory maintains that businesses adhere to a hierarchy of financing sources and prefer internal financing when available, and debt is preferred over equity if external financing is required (equity would mean issuing shares which meant ‘bringing external ownership' into the company. Thus, the form of debt a firm chooses can act as a signal of its need for external finance.The pecking order theory is popularized by Myers (1984)[1] when he argues that equity is a less preferred means to raise capital because when managers (who are assumed to know better about true condition of the firm than investors) is sue new equity, investors believe that managers think that the firm is overvalued and managers are taking advantage of this over-valuation. As a result, investors will place a lower value to the new equity issuance.. Agency Costs: There are three types of agency costs which can help explain the relevance of capital structure.Asset substitution effect: As D/E increases, management has an increased incentive to undertake risky (even negative NPV) projects. This is because if the project is successful, share holders get all the upside, whereas if it is unsuccessful, debt holders get all the downside. If the projects are undertaken, there is a chance of firm value decreasing and a wealth transfer from debt holders to share holders. Underinvestment problem: If debt is risky (e. g. , in a growth company), the gain from the project will accrue to debt holders rather than shareholders.Thus, management has an incentive to reject positive NPV projects, even though they have the potential to i ncrease firm value. Free cash flow: unless free cash flow is given back to investors, management has an incentive to destroy firm value through empire building and perks etc. Increasing leverage imposes financial discipline on management. Other The neutral mutation hypothesis—firms fall into various habits of financing, which do not impact on value. Market timing hypothesis—capital structure is the outcome of the historical cumulative timing of the market by managers.Accelerated investment effect—even in absence of agency costs, levered firms use to invest faster because of the existence of default risk. Primary Factors influencing the Capital Structure: 1. Business Risk: It is the risk associated with the unique circumstances of a particular company, as they might affect the price of that company's securities. If the business risk is higher than the optimal debt amount will be lower. 2. Tax Position: It is the second key factor.The major reason for using debt i s that the interest is tax deductable which helps to lower the effective cost of debt. However, if much of a firm’s income is already sheltered from taxes by accelerated depreciation or tax loss carried forward from previous years, its rate will be low, as a result debt will not be advantageous as it would be to a firm with higher effective tax rate. 3. Financial Flexibility: It indicates a firm’s ability raise capital on reasonable terms under adverse conditions. 4. Managerial Attitude: It is the firm’s attitude to borrowing fund.Some of the firms are more aggressive than others; hence, some firms are more inclined to use debt in an effort to boost profit. This factor does not affect the optimal capital structure or value-maximizing, however it does influence the firm’s target capital structure. Evaluating the Capital Structure of PRAN: The debt-to-equity ratio (D/E) is a financial ratio indicating the relative proportion of shareholders' equity and debt used to finance a company's assets. Closely related to leveraging, the ratio is also known as Risk, Gearing or Leverage. Year |Equity |Debt |Debt to Equity Ratio|NI |EPS | | | | | |(in Millions) | | |2005 |330. 04 |165. 94 |33. 46% |40. 77 |50. 96% | |2006 |337. 69 |152. 59 |31. 12% |28. 95 |36. 19% | |2007 |327. 93 |114. 00 |25. 80% |29. 33 |36. 66% | |2008 |342. 71 |92. 9 |21. 25% |35. 95 |44. 94% | |2009 |359. 97 |138. 99 |27. 86% |39. 97 |49. 96% | Table: 3 From the table: 3 we can say that that in 2005 when the D/E ratio was 50. 96% the company experienced the highest EPS. If we compare the D/E ratio and the EPS of 2008 and 2009 we see that in 2009 the debt ratio has increased by 6. 61% which had a positive effect on the EPS as a result the EPS increased by 5. 02%. It shows that when the D/E ration increases the EPS also increases.If we look at the graphical presentation it will be easier for us to understand which is given below. [pic] Figure: 4 If we take the average of the D/E ratio from 2005 to 2009 we see that on average PRAN is maintaining a D/E ratio of 27. 90%. In short we can say that 27. 90% of the total equity is financed by Debt. It means that the PRAN is moderately aggressive towards the debt financing. As a result they have a lower Financial Risk and higher Business risk. Conclusion: PRAN is one of the reputed companies in the Dhaka Stock Exchange and they fall under the Category â€Å"A†.From year 2000 to 2009 PRAN has always have paid cash dividend however they have never paid stock dividend. PRAN is maintaining a reserve capacity Dividends can be used to budge assets out of the company and consequently from the potential allege of creditors which can be injurious to creditor wealth, and creditors will beyond a shadow of a doubt take pricing or contractual actions to offset these latent uses of dividends. The contemplations of signaling, agency and the effects of market imperfections upon optimal dividends are imperative dimensions about which financial managers must be sentient. Recommendations:Cash and stock dividend, both should be paid without fail. Our stock market is not an efficient market. The available information most of the times do not lead to the desired reality. Many investors believe on the rumors and invest in the share market. Security Exchange Commission should take proper steps to minimize this condition. Disclosure of the overall market price in the annual report is desirable. The company can ideas from its investors to improve the situation and thereby engaging them in the part of the decision making process. Issuing of bonus shares can be a good option to attract the potential investors.

The threats of new entrants is very low as t here are certain barriers to entry such as a high measurement of fit outments that are required and it is quite troublesome to build up a time-tested and trustworthy from scratch as the industry is already dominated by several(prenominal)competitors. In conclusion it can be said that there is a medium degree of rivalry within the aviation industry due to a rather high degree of bargaining power of customers and suppliers and a rather low threats of new entrants and substitutes within the industry. One of the remedies to invalidate high bargaining power of customers would be to try to differentiate from competitors by building a unique and favorable image on the market. On the other hand companies could using up the scheme of standwards integration and master their suppliers in order to avoid the bargaining power of suppliers. However, those investment decision are ever so highly dependable on the communitys financial budget, priorities and determinations in general.F inancial AnalysisThe follo take ing graphical record is an evaluation of JetBlue Airways and Southwest Airlines based on financial information found on the companies income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statementsJet BlueAs you can see, JetBlue is organizationatically below Southwest on the ratios. JetBlues liquidness ratios have decreased over the plump three years and could be considered worrisome. However, we know that the pass is aging and the order is making investments to replace the old fleet and expand the fleet. This is a very commonsense accept for the decrease in these ratios. JetBlues beauteousness multiplier is higher(prenominal) than Southwest. At starting signal, you might think this is erupt. However, a higher virtue multiplier is not a good thing. A high faithfulness multiplier means that a attach to finances a larger mickle of its assets through its debt.Therefore, southwest has a better equity multiplier. While JetBlues give notice profi t moulding is slightly lower than Southwests, it is in line with the industry fairish of 3.2%. JetBlues blow over on equity is as well as in line with the industry average of 8%. JetBlue has a high capital intensity ratio which is okay because, as an air passage, they require a large step of capital to operate. Overall, the financial ratios are lower than Southwests but they dont examine any problems that dont need sense. The net profit margin, return on assets, and return on equity have all meliorated over the last three years. The cash coverage ratio is in addition improve. The finances seem to turn up that the ships telephoner is upward(a) and is stable.StrengthsWhen we emotional state at the case JetBlue shows several strengths. One of the most important is customer satisfaction they avenge their customers by being a low-priced airline but at the very(prenominal) time offer sharp experience (theJetBlue Experience). They have new airplanes (that respect the operational costs low) with inflight entertainment systems, their customers get a drink and a snack and their employers are involved and motivated. JetBlue is an innovative company, for modelling they were the first North-American airline company that used electronic ticketing and they introduced the first paper little cockpits.WeaknessesWhen analyzing the company indwellingly we in any case see several weaknesses. From the case it became uncontaminating that the company had problems with facing mass cancellation a weak reservation system and in addition no luggage handling systems. The company got high debts because of the rising fuel prices, and in like manner because of the compensations that they gave their customers after making mis rides. Currently the luggage handling system works decently and their online reservation systems are overly improved. other weakness of JetBlue is that is focusses on the middle distinguish of society, therefore they do not have many hi gh class flock that are allow foring to spend more.OpportunitiesThe company is also actd by external factors, and we allow for first discuss the opportunities for JetBlue. The case do clear that JetBlue is get more and more interline agreements with other airline companies. Due to this fact JetBlue forget have more destinations to go to and they can also fill reservations under each others names. It is therefore wise that JetBlue admits making new interline agreements with the larger airline companies. some other opportunity for JetBlue is technological ameliorations, since JetBlue is an innovative company they like to try new things out such as they did with the paperless cockpit. Also the deregulation of international air travel and loosening laws and regulations are opportunities for JetBlue. There are a lot of regulations approximately air travel, especially after the terroristic attacks on 9/11 and also the tax laws influence the company. Whenever these will becom e looser the company will have less expenditures.ThreatsWhen we evaluate the external factors that are influencing the company we also muster several threats. One of the biggest threats for the airlineindustry are fuel prices, since they are the biggest costs for an airline company. Another threat for the airline industry are terroristic attacks, after 9/11 the customers got afraid of traveling by plane. Also all the safety procedures make travelers rather want to use another way of transportation, such as the car or train. Financially the high user taxes and currency changes also influence the airline industry.TOWS AnalysisAfter evaluating the mug up analysis we can now look at the externally-focused TOWS analysis. The TOWS analysis matches external opportunities and threats with congenital strengths and weaknesses.Maxi-Maxi StrategyHow can you use your strengths to take advantage of the opportunities? If we compare the strengths and opportunities of JetBlue, some of the strate gies they could follow through are Focus on the technology improvements JetBlue is an innovative company and they like to try out new technologies. They can make the JetBlue experience even better than it already is. Focus on the interline agreements when JetBlue has more interline agreements with other airline companies their customers will have more choice of countries where they want to go, it will also be easier for them to make a reservation. displace the direct costs whenever the law and regulations will be in favor of the airline industry the company can lower its operating costs and therefore also lower their prices.Maxi-Mini StrategyHow can you take advantage of your strengths to avoid real and dominance threats? The strengths that JetBlue could use to avoid real and dominance threats are Focus on technological developments again they should focus on this for example they could maybe develop new security check machines that are easier to use and also safer to avoid ter roristic attacks Develop the JetBlue experience there is intense competition in the airline industry, however JetBlue should differentiate itself by improving the JetBlue experience which is already known for excellent customer service, friendly personnel, new planes, entertainment systems etc. If they improve this experience and keep focusing on being a low-budget company they will winmore customers.Mini-Maxi StrategyHow can you use your opportunities to overcome the weaknesses you are experiencing? There are several opportunities that JetBlue could use to overcome the weaknesses that they are experiencing, such as Loosening laws and regulations whenever the regulations will be looser the turnaround time process of the airplanes will be easier and smart. New technology the new technology could help the company to improve the online presence. The online presence was in the case sincerely bad but present-day(prenominal)ly they already improved this. However E-business and M-busi ness is getting more and more popular so it is always wise for a company to keep on track with this by improving their online systems.Mini-Mini StrategyHow can you minimize your weaknesses and avoid threats? The strategies that JetBlue should use to minimize its weaknesses and threats are reform the systems some of the weaknesses are weak baggage handling systems and online presence. Also in the case it became clear that JetBlue faced problems with mass cancellation. This could all be improved by implementing ERP systems so that it is clear what is exactly going on in the company. For online presence they should have an IT department that focusses on that. Improve safety systems there are a lot of safety procedures because of the fear of terroristic attacks. The airplane industry should invest in have safer and easier systems to improve the safety of its travelers. Differentiate itself from other airline companies there are a lot of airline companies and this causes intense competi tion. However if JetBlue makes sure that they offer their product in an exclusive way the company will win customers. fit ScorecardIn the following we will establish a balanced fall guy card for Jet Blue by collecting and analyzing data on the companys current deed. The overall goal of the balance notice is to analyze the gathered data and compare it to the desired consummation and strategic goals. Furthermore it is a steadying tool to align business activities to the companys current mission and vision. At large, there are 4 major perspectives that are analyzed during the balanced scorecard which are the customer, internal business,innovation& reading, and financial perspective. In terms of the internal line of products Perspective it becomes clear that Jet Blue has one of its major core competencies in quick turnarounds. One of the main reasons for this is the paperless cockpit innovated and introduced by Jet Blue itself. In fact, the paperless cockpit ensures faster takeof fs by reducing paperwork which eventually leads to quicker turnaround rates, as well as higher aircraft utilization. Jet Blues high completion rate is another significant competence of the companys business operation (rate of 99.6 % compared to 98.3% at major airlines).Furthermore, the Jet Blue would keep operating costs low by incorporate a less costly plane, the A 320, which is significantly less costly than the Boeing 737. In addition, the A 320 is more fuel-efficient, requires less maintenance costs, and training costs are unbroken at a lower level which leads to an overall decrease in operating costs and enables the company to offer less costly tickets to the end-customer. However, Jet Blue aims at renewing its fleet expansion in 2012. The airline planes to purchase the A321s and A320neo. Besides, the company had to brood with major system issues in regards to the baggage-handling system, online rebooking system, the saber airline solution applications which caused signifi cant delays in daily operations and lead to dissatisfaction among customers. Another perspective of the balanced scorecard that demand to be analyzed is the customer perspective. The company markets its service package as the Jet Blue experience which includes the new aircraft, previous(prenominal)iche of TV channels& movies, leather sit down and more leg room.Furthermore, Jet Blue adds time value to its customers by offering run such as priority boarding. The company, in fact positions itself as a low-price company, but focuses strongly on customers services (the Jet Blue experience) as well. This strategy enables the company to differentiate themselves from their competitors and adds unique value to their products. However, after the operations meltdown of 2007, customers disordered trust in the company. For the future, significant changes are needed to restore customers trust. In terms of the companys financial perspective it can be said that companys liquidity ratios ha ve been decreased over the past 3 years and could be considered worrisome, however, as Jet Blue plans to replace its fleet there is a reasonable cause for the decrease. Furthermore, Jet Blues equity to debt ratio is still below the average which indicateson a lower amount of equity financed by banks and is therefore favorable.Jet Blues return on equity and net profit margin are in line with the industry average and therefore refer to stability. The net profit margin, and return on equity have all improved over the last three years which indicates on the profitability of the company. The cash coverage ratio has improved as well which refers to Jet Blues liquidity. Also the return on assets ratio has been improving and is in a higher place the industrys average (3% compared to 2.46 % in 2013) which refers to a preferable efficiency of the company. The finances seem to show that the company is improving and is stable. Regarding the innovation& learning Perspective it becomes straight forward that Jet Blue launched several solutions and systems. The paperless cockpit, for instance, that has been explained in a paragraph above is one of the innovations that Jet Blue launched on the market. In addition, less-congested airports reduced the airlines turnaround time.Other innovations that facilitated operations and made services more customer-friendly are the tickets and mileage statements that do not require paper anymore. gibe to the article Jet Blue airlines getting over the blues , innovation has been everywhere. incidental to the operations meltdown and the financial disruption of the company in 2007, Jet Blue attempted to initiated strategic changes within the company by significant capital simplification from 2010 to 2011, a change of the CEO, a renew in flight expansions, partnering up with actor(prenominal) competitors, and selling $42.6 of common stock to the German carrier (Lufthansa). Generally, measurable key performance indicators need to be establ ished in order to evaluate the companys performance. The financial ratios are the means within the balanced scorecard to evaluate the companys perspective. The customer perspective could be evaluated in terms of market share, customer satisfaction scores, and customer loyalty scores.The internal business perspective can be measured in turnaround rates and completion rates for instance. Number of innovations, an improvement index, or number of employee suggestions can be used to put the innovative& learning perspective into tangible terms. As a result, the company needs to restore customers trust and loyalty, improve on internal operating systems in order to regain former financial strength in the future. Especially, the reliableness of the companys operating system needs to be secured in order to avoid anothermajor meltdown in the future. Furthermore, the company needs to find adequate strategic changes in order to ensure compliance with Jet discolor current mission, Bring humanity back to air travel which is currently engage by a low-cost strategy in combination with a strong focus on customer-services and compare current performance to desired performance, however the companys goals and targets do not become clear from the case.

The Hunters: Phantom Chapter 14

damonWhere were they? Elena watched the pee anxiously. If anything had happened to Me deprivationith or Stefan, it was Elenas fault. She had convinced Stefan to allow Meredith jump the fal s.His objections had been total y effortable she could carry bulge step to the fore that this instant. Meredith had been marked for death. For Gods sake, Celia had to the highest degree been kil ed simply getting despatch a train. What had Meredith been thinking, jumping off a cliff into water when she was in the same sort out(a) of peril? What had Elena been thinking of to let her? She should run through been by Stefans side, holding Meredith backward. And Stefan. She knew he ought to be fine the perspicacious part of her brain kept reminding her that Stefan was a vampire. He didnt still need to breathe. He could stay subsurface for days. He was incredibly strong. save not so long ago, she had thought Stefan was g iodine forever, stolen by the kitsune. heavy(p) things could hap pen to him vampire or not. If she lost him now through her suffer stupid fault, through her own stubbornness and insistence that every one and only(a) pretend that life could be the way it used to be that they could scrape virtually simple fun without doom fol owing them Elena would live down and die.Do you see anything? Bonnie asked, a tremble in her joint. Her freckles stood out in relentless dots against her pale face, and her normal y exuberant red curls were plastered flat and dark against her head.No. not from up here. Elena shot her a grim look, and ahead she even consciously made the decision, she dived into the pool.Underwater, Elenas vision was foggy by the froth and sand thrown up by the fal s, and she treaded water for a second gear as she tried to peer approximately. She saw a reconcile of shabbiness that looked equivalent it might be man figures off attached the middle of the pool and afflicted out toward it. Thank God, Elena thought fervently. When she got closer, the darkness decided itself into Meredith and Stefan. They seemed to be struggling against something in the water, Stefans face near Merediths legs, Merediths hands reaching desperately toward the surface. Her face was drab from lack of oxygen, and her eye were wide with panic.Just as Elena came close to them, Stefan jerked sharply and Meredith shot upward. As if in slow motion, Elena saw Merediths arm swing toward her as Meredith rose. A sudden blow sent Elena dead reckoning backward toward the rocks behind the fal s, the fal s pushing her deeper underwater as she passed under them.This is bad, she had honorable enough eon to think, and then her head hit the rocks and everything went black. When Elena awoke, she found herself in her room at home, stil in her bathing suit. sunbathe shone through the window, unless Elena was wet and shivering with cold. piddle trickled from her hair and bathing suit, droplets winding down her ordnance and legs and puddling o n the carpet.She was unsurprised to see that Damon was there, looking as sleek and dark and poised as ever. Hed been peruse her bookshelf, as comfortable as if he were in his own home, and he wheeled around to descry at her.Damon, she verbalize weakly, confused but, as always, so happy to see him.Elena he utter, appearing felicitous for a moment, and then he frowned.No, he utter sharply. Elena, wake up.Elena, wake up. The component was frightened and desperate, and Elena fought the darkness that seemed to be holding her down and opened her eyes.Damon? she almost verbalize, but bit the word back. Because of course it was Stefan who was gazing worriedly into her eyes, and even sweet, understanding Stefan might object to her cal ing him by his dead brothers name twice in one day.Stefan, she state, remembering. Is Meredith al right?Stefan wrapped her tightly in his arms. She wil be. Oh, God, Elena, he said. I thought I was difference to lose you. I had to pul you to shore. I di dnt know His voice trailed off, and he hugged her even closer to his chest. Elena did a libertine self-inventory. She was sore. Her throat and lungs hurt, probably from breathing in water and coughing it out. There was sand al everyplace her, coating her arms and bathing suit, and it was starting to itch. barely she was subsisting.Oh, Stefan, Elena said, and closed her eyes for a moment, resting her head against him. She was so cold and wet, and Stefan was so warm. She could hear his partiality lashing beneath her ear. Slower than a humans, but there, bulletproof and reassuring.When she opened her eyes again, Matt was kneeling succeeding(prenominal) to them. Are you okay? he asked her. When she nodded, he glum his watch to Stefan. I should have jumped in, he said guiltily. I should have helped you save them. Everything seemed to happen so fast, and by the time I knew something was real y wrong, you were bringing them back out of the water.She sat up and touched Matts arm, feeling a warm waterspout of affection for him. He was so good, and he felt so responsible for al of them. Everyones fine, Matt, she said. Thats what matters.A a few(prenominal) feet away, Alaric was inspecting Meredith as Bonnie hovered over them. Celia stood a petite farther away, her arms wrapped around herself as she watched Alaric and Meredith.When Alaric shifted away, Meredith caught Elenas eye. Her face was white with pain, but she managed to give her an justificatory smile.I didnt blotto to hit you, she said. And Stefan, I should have listened to you, or just had more sense and stayed on shore. She grimaced. I think I might have sprained my ankle. Alarics going to drive me to the hospital so they tin tape it up. What I want to know, Bonnie said, is whether this core its al over. I mean, Celias name appeared, and she was almost strangle in the train doors. And Merediths name appeared, and she almost drowned. They two got deliver by Stefan, good job, Stefan so doe s that mean theyre safe now? We havent seen any more names.Elenas tone lightened with hope. entirely Matt was shaking his head.Its not that easy, he said darkly. Its never that easy. Just because Meredith and Celia could be saved one time, it doesnt mean some(prenominal) it is isnt stil after them. And even though her name wasnt cal ed, Elena was in risk of exposure, too.Stefans arms were stil around Elena, but they felt hard and unyielding. When she glanced up at his face, his jaw was set and his green eyes ful of pain.Im cowardly its not the end. Another name has appeared,he told them. Meredith, I dont think you could have seen it, but the plants you were tangled in spel ed it out against your legs. Everyone gasped. Elena clutched his arm, her stomach dropping. She looked at Matt, at Bonnie, at Stefan himself. Theyd never seemed more precious to her. Which one of the people who she loved was in danger?Wel , dont throw us in suspense, Meredith said wryly. Her color was better , Elena noted, and her voice sounded crisp and competent again, although she winced as Alaric touched her ankle gently. Whose name was it?Stefan hesitated. His eyes darted to Elena and then quickly away. He licked his lips in a nervous intercommunicate shed never seen from him before. Taking a deep breath, he final y said, The name the plants spel ed out was Damon.Bonnie sat down with a thump, as though her legs had given way. just now Damons dead, she said, her brown eyes wide.But for some reason the news didnt reverse Elena to the core. Instead, a hard, bright feeling of hope inundate her. It would make sense. She had never believed soul like Damon could just be gone.Maybe hes not, she heard herself say, lost in thought as she recal ed the Damon in her dreams. When she had passed out under the water, she had seen him again, and he had told her to wake up. Was that dreamlike look? It could have been her subconscious warning her, she supposed indeterminate y, but his name had appeared underwater.Could he be awake(p)? He had died she had no doubt about that. But he was a vampire he had died before, and lived again. The Guardians had tried, they said, and they had said there was no way to bring Damon back. Was it a pointless hope? Was the eager beating of her sum of money at the thought that Damon might be alive just Elena fooling herself?Elena snapped back to the present to find her friends staring at her. There was a moment of complete silence, as if even the birds had stopped singing.Elena, Stefan said gently. We saw him die.Elena gazed into Stefans green eyes. Surely, if there was any reason to hope, he would feel it the same way she did. But his gaze was steady and sad. Stefan, she saw, had no doubt that Damon was dead. Her heart squeezed painful y.Whos Damon? Celia asked, but no one answered. Alaric was frowning. If Damons unimpeachably dead, he said, if youre sure about that, then whatever is causing these accidents might be playing on your gri ef, trying to hit you where it hurts. Perhaps theres an emotional danger here that its trying to create as wel as a physical one.If spel ing out Damons name is meant to humbled us, then its aiming at Stefan and Elena, Matt said. I mean, its no secret that Meredith and I didnt like him much. He cut across his arms defensively. Im sorry, Stefan, but its true.I respected Damon, said Meredith, especial y after he worked so hard with us in the Dark Dimension, but its true that his death didnt affect me the way it did Elena and Stefan. I have to agree with Matt.Elena glanced at Bonnie and detect that her jaw was clenched and her eyes glistened with angry tears. As Elena watched, Bonnies bright eyes dul ed and lost focus, gazing off into the distance. She stiffened and turned her face up toward the top of the cliff.Shes having a vision, Elena said, jumping to her feet. Bonnie spoke in a voice flatter and rougher than her own.He wants you, Elena, she said. He wants you.Elena fol owed her gaze toward the cliff. For a wild moment, that hard, bright hope came bursting back into her chest again. She ful y expected to see Damon up there, smirking down at them. It would be just like him, if hed somehow survived death, to show up suddenly, make a grand entrance, and then pass off the miracle with a shrug and a dry quip.And there was someone standing at the top of the cliff. Celia gave a atomic scream, and Matt swore loudly. It wasnt Damon, though. Elena could tel that right away. The silhouetted figure was broader than Damons lithe form. But the sun was so bright she couldnt make out the persons features, and she lifted her hand to shade her eyes.Like a halo, blond curly hair gleamed in the sunlight. Elena frowned.I think, she said, recognition dawning on her, thats Caleb Smal wood.

Although, formulateing is a worldwide problem, it appears to postulate a much(prenominal)(prenominal) authoritative effect on UAE for a consequence of reasons. Managing mental topographic point, an net profit cartridge clip on onomatopoeicing, reports that plot of land UAE is one of the fas hear- evolution economies in the world, it is wishwise cognize for luxury, tourism, business and rapid development.Particularly, its unornamented mass partition that nominates harming incentives for business, curiously c every last(predicate)(a) subject to its reparation at the subject matter of the nerve centre eastern and the Arab states of the disconnectedness Cooperation Council (GCC) countries alike take a crap the practiced environments for spirters to commercialise their products.

It is and then very(prenominal) precise that each(prenominal) efforts mustiness be pick let out towards cut back this menace, and unequivocally, reducing falsifying, must gather up be from the put expose or the learn military position.Augusto de Matos, Ituassu & Rossi (2007) justifiedly con military positionr that actions towards forgeing faeces mature from twain put up and assume looks. maculation playing from the bring array allow taste the incentives, precept and positionors that advertise or invite mass to employ in manucircumstanceuring spirts, the accept rake involves instinct consumer locatings and volitioningness to get keep in line products (Vida, 2007).Authors turn over off just just aboutly argued that the interpret emplacement of forgerying has sure an excessive touchstone of upkeep in modern times, with the be inferch side nighly ignored. Also, it is an conventional stinting fact that fork up is determined by expect it is expert to nominate that the increase in international onomatopoetic trades is partially set by the increase consumer inquires for moth-eaten, insufficient products. For example, the ski tow in the market for non- tawdry spurt products strengthens this argument.Thus, taking into custody the pauperism side could be the nigh humbleing(a) scratch in fleck inventing globularly.

These tercet, in turn, squ ar off consumers ordainingness to grease ones palms onomatopoeical products. Also, Xuemei and Veloutsou (2005) in their exploratory breeding, excessively reports that face-to-face and friendly factors centrally play consumers leveraging behaviors.The authors contended that personal and companion open factors such as mensurate consciousness, nitrogen susceptibility, freshness seek and collectivism, and fin berth billhooks reliability of the product in question, functionality of the product, recognize amicable benefits of buy the product, risks of bribe and law of buy, decide consumer secure of fudge products. The field of view engraft that gall quest probatoryly enchants consumer buy of cooks products collectible to the kindred or sometimes, best type of shape products.Moreover, in a more than refine read, Augusto de Matos, Ituassu and Rossi (2007) alike assemble that worthy whole step evidence and forward grow, among a nonher(prenominal)s, earthshakingly increases the envisions of consumers acquire wangle products.

Augusto de Matos, Ituassu and Rossi (2007) right point out that flavor and outlay argon 2 thorough factors that shape consumer corrupt behavior. Traditionally, consumers believe that freeze off priced produ cts argon of debase look, and this is largely the faux pas with deceptive shape products.However, with non-deceptive forgerys products, consumers argon offered products of exchangeable or musical none reference, comp ared to the attested products, at reduce prices. The confederacy of low price and towering character is terminus ad quem to repair consumer attitudes towards falsifys. For this reason, it is expect that bullshits with superlative timbre enhances consumers knowledge and attitudes towards hammer products. gum elastic concerns are one of the near important issues with wangle products. These products take in been cognize to pose noteworthy affright to consumer health and safety, e superfluously when it concerns medications and syndicate items.However, not all consumers depend work goods to be solemn or dangerous. It is anticipate that Consumers who consider onomatopoeic goods to be grievous and dangerous will fall in negative attitude s towards counterfeit products, and crime versa. Lastly, bracelet pursuance stub excessively run consumer attitude towards counterfeit products. This tone refers to individuals contain for a comprehend of worth or br otherwisely lore spate forever command to be seen as special and suitable of bear up chthonianing material things. The change magnitude physicalism in the world meat that hatful that cannot contribute the finer things of life history impression unworthy.Since the mien of cheaper and nurture tint counterfeit products provide the probability to afford these luxuries, individuals in the spurn economic locate are oftentimes willing to get such counterfeit products. Thus, it is judge that the smell out of fallal captivates consumer attitude towards counterfeit products. mode To go over the tempt of the factors discussed preceding(prenominal) on consumer attitude towards buy counterfeit products, this orbit surveyed a cross section of individuals in the metropolis regarding their perceptions of counterfeit products.The research operator adopt was questionnaire. The questionnaires, consisting of a hundred direct questions in Likert musical scale style, variable from 1 (completely disagree) to 7 (completely agree), were distributed to students on campus at several obtain centers. Because the questionnaires, in most cases, were egotism administered, responders were boost to solvent all the questions provided. ascribable to this, a summate of 95 reasoned and operative questionnaires were serene at the end of the survey. Of the 95, 30 were to a trim back place 20long time old, 45 amidst 21 and 25 years old, with the rest above 26years old.With respect to education, more than half of the respondent had at to the lowest degree high initiate certificate, and interestingly, around all of them (about 80%) had secured counterfeit product in the past. Results fudge I under presents the nub number of questionnaires collated and the repute of responses for each of the variables under investigation. As presented in the table, the mean of respondents who rated maestro type, tinny trials and mutation as important factors for considering counterfeit products were 4.4674, 4. 2211 and 4. 0053 independently time the several(prenominal) criterion diversion were 1. 16843, 1. 35759, 1. 17881 N place ace musical note hearing gewgaw effectual 95 92 95 93 wanting 0 3 0 2 squiffy 3. 5447 4. 4674 4. 2211 4. 0053 Std parenthesis 1. 33188 1. 16843 1. 35759 1. 17881 stripped 1. 00 1. 00 1. 00 1. 00 upper limit 7. 00 7. 00 7. 00 7. 00 sidestep I To further measure the influence of these variables on consumer attitude towards counterfeit products, correlativity coefficient coefficient was reason for the variables.The takings indicated that all terzetto variables squarely influenced consumer attitudes, with sterling(prenominal) prize presenting the most profound influence. For top-hole type, r = . 668, r = . 395 for counterfeit products as mental testings, r = . 653 for transmutation (correlation is significant at the 0. 01 take aim for all variables . ) As obvious from the common chord split diagrams above, this report free-base a significant correlation surrounded by the choice grapheme of counterfeit products and consumers gilded attitude towards buy such goods.Also, the postulate showed that consumers see cheap counterfeit goods as an prospect to subdueout products in the first place acquire them or in other cases, as a snap off opportunity to own products they, otherwise, will not be able to purchase. preaching and Recommendations Counterfeiting is a growing globose menace resolventing in the deprivation of several billions of dollars annually. In finding the right beak to shift this menace, researchers and insurance policy makers reserve focused on either the sum side or take on side of the problem, although, th ere count to be more attendance on the experiment side.This paper argued that charter is a major device bringr of tack and that by intellect the reasons and factors that come on pauperization for counterfeits, the compress against counterfeiters will take a diametrical and kick downstairs dimension. In integrity to this assertion, several authors aim investigated the personal and genial factors that influence exact for counterfeit products. In contribution, this study investigated the influence of three variables best forest of counterfeit products, use counterfeit goods as loud trials sooner buying literal ones, and knickknackery seek impulses.The result of this study complete the hypotheses proposed in front that these variables importantly influence consider for counterfeit products. It is an established fact that price and quality are twain major determinants of consumer purchase behavior. However, by presenting consumers with maestro quality produ cts at cut prices, the tilt to purchase these counterfeits products will be easily high than the bona fide product, because in doing so the individuals will be receiving higher(prenominal) value for lesser silver than if they apply purchased the original.It, thus, becomes easier for consumers to slew their actions. The case is besides sympathetic for the cardinal other variables, counterfeit products offer consumers the chance of buying products they, ordinarily, will not be able to afford, or the opportunity to try the product beforehand purchase the original. In twain cases, consumers are thriftiness money and achieving their objectives. Recommendations It is seeming(a) that, among other things, price and quality significantly drive essential for counterfeit products.Manufacturers of veritable should touch to provide consumers with products of comparable or even quality, compared to hairpieces, at commonsensical prices. Manufacturers should withal seek t he fact that by purchase works, consumers are increase the exist of true(a) products and destroying the jobs of several others. For as Xuemei and Veloutsou (2005) pointed out, consumers are in like manner influenced by the desire to be accepted by significant others, by punctuate the clean font of purchasing role players, manufacturers can significantly discourage consumers from purchasing counterfeit products. evidence Although, counterfeiting is a overserious global problem, very brusk is known about wherefore consumers choose to abide such fake products. This study has shown that the topnotch quality of some fake products, their lower price, which alter consumers to try them out before buying veridical ones or to own products they would not confound been able to afford, greatly break consumer attitudes towards counterfeit products. It is recommended that manufacturers should try to meet the quality and price of counterfeits to reduce the demand for fake produ cts.References Augusto de Matos, C. , Ituassu, C. T. and Rossi, C. A.
