Prior announcements of moves have value as market signals in part because an announced move need not actually occur. Which of the following is true regarding the effects of prior announcements of moves on the market?I). The effects may preempt competitionII). The effects may express pleasure or displeasure with a competitor's actionIII). The effects may be a means of ending all external debateIV). The effects may test competitor sentiment
Answer(s): B
Among other things, prior announcements of moves may preempt competition, threaten action, test competitor sentiment, express pleasure or displeasure with a competitor's action, and act as a means of ending internal debate. Moreover, prior announcements of moves may be a means of ending some external debate (i.e., if the announcement was aimed at the financial community in order to answer questions about the firm's liquidity). However, all external debate would be impossible to end, even by means of prior announcements of moves.
A firm discounts never-before-discounted items. This action is an example of a:
Answer(s): A
The discounting of never-before-discounted items implies aggressive intent. It is an example of a divergence from industry precedent.
Firm A mostly does business in markets in the southern part of the country. Firm B mostly does business in markets in the western part of the country. However, Firm A has recently moved to compete with Firm B in the western part of the country by introducing its existing products there. Accordingly, Firm B has entered Firm As primary markets. What kind of market signal did Firm B send?
The cross-parry is a response to a competitor's move in one area with a move in another. For example, Firm X, which is well entrenched in region A, may move to compete with Firm Y in its stronghold in region B. Firm Ys cross-parry is to enter the market in region A. A cross-parry is an indirect response by the defending firm that potentially avoids destructive conflict in the newly penetrated market. However, it also signals the possibility of retaliation, especially if it occurs in one of the initiating firm's key markets. For example, price cutting as a cross-parry may be very effective against a firm with a large share of the market where the parry is made. This firm has more to lose in a price war in that market. Consequently, maintenance of a presence in a cross market deters the large-share firm from attacking elsewhere.
A true market signal:
Answer(s): C
Prior announcements of moves may minimize the provocation caused by a future strategic adjustment, e.g., a price cut. Such a move may be a genuine attempt to realign prices with changes in costs, not an aggressive grab for market share. However, the move may also be an attempt to mislead.
In which industry structure is differentiation absent, and all sellers charge the same price?
