    Sample Questions & Answers

    How sharply would the company be affected if it lost its main supplier?

    Most wholesalers depend highly on a few large suppliers. Because of industry consolidation in the past decade, the four largest manufacturers account for 75 percent of US production. Consequently, wholesalers have reduced power to negotiate favorable...

     

    How does the company protect itself from higher fuel costs?

    Because they distribute a heavy product with a fairly low profit margin, tire wholesalers are vulnerable to increases in fuel costs, as prices for gas or diesel can increase 50 percent within a year. If higher delivery costs are passed to customers,...

      Sample Questions & Answers

      How do changes in interest rates affect the company's profits?

      Because many distributors finance their inventories, they're sensitive to interest rates. On average, distributors hold inventory equal to 35 days sales, but machinery distributors may hold products for more than 50 days. Food and petroleum product...

       

      How much business has the company lost due to retailers buying directly from manufacturers?

      Big retailers like Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Costco buy much of their merchandise directly from manufacturers, bypassing distributors. Because they buy in large quantity and operate their own warehouse systems, these retailers don't need distributors.

        How sensitive is the company's business to the economy?

        Economic factors, including personal income, consumer confidence, job growth, and interest rates, can greatly affect consumer spending and the retail sector. During recessionary periods, retail sales growth can slow drastically and even decline.

         

        How does the company compete with large retailers?

        In many retail segments, large companies dominate and hold the majority of the market. Even specialty retailers in fragmented markets must compete with mass merchandisers and warehouse clubs that offer a smaller selection of comparable merchandise at...

          Sample Questions & Answers

          How does the company adjust its inventory levels during periods of lower demand?

          Because auto parts sales depend on how much people drive, demand decreases during recessions. During economic downturns, tourists and businesspeople travel less, and car owners delay maintenance and repairs.

           

          How has the company been impacted by mass merchants like Wal-Mart taking more market share for oil and car cleaning products?

          Retail auto parts stores face greater competition from large retailers such as Wal-Mart, Costco, Sears, and supermarket chains. These retailers are large enough to buy items directly from manufacturers and compete aggressively on prices charged to...
