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 do fluctuations in raw material prices impact the company?

    Because many paint resins and solvents are made from industrial chemicals derived from crude oil or natural gas, the cost of production can vary significantly. Manufacturers have only a limited ability to pass higher costs to customers. Crude oil...

      How accurately does the firm estimate costs?

      Project cost overruns are a primary cause of financial distress for engineering companies. Some firms have incurred heavy losses from underestimating costs, forcing them to divest business units or file for bankruptcy. In addition to paying for cost...

        Sample Questions & Answers

        How does the firm adapt to lower demand during economic slowdowns?

        Many corporate customers cut outside expenses or delay major projects when profits are low. The revenue of many professional firms dropped during the late 2000s recession; particularly hard-hit were advertising, engineering, and IT services firms.

         

        How does the firm mitigate the risk that customers will sue?

        Because of the greater involvement of professional firms in the operations of corporate customers, firms face greater risk of blame or liability if their advice proves faulty. Customers are quicker to blame advisers, and regulators are more likely to...

          Sample Questions & Answers

          How does the company mitigate cyclical demand?

          Demand for industrial chemicals is subject to the cyclicality of heavy end-use markets, and therefore volatile. The automotive and construction industries, for example, can experience significant production declines during economic downturns.

           

          How does the company protect itself from fluctuating energy costs?

          Extracting and processing basic chemicals from raw materials typically requires large amounts of energy, usually in the form of heat. Many chemicals also use natural gas or petroleum as a raw material. Since energy costs can account for as much as...

                    Competitive Landscape Brief

                    Demand depends heavily on the health of the US economy, including corporate profits and local government budgets. The profitability of individual companies depends on accurate project bids and efficient operations. Large companies have advantages in their ability to engage in multiple projects simultaneously and in many types of construction. Small companies can compete effectively by specializing, working in a limited geography, or serving as subcontractors on larger projects. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is more than $350,000. The commercial construction industry is intensely competitive, with companies ranging from small private firms to multi-billion dollar companies. Barriers to entry are low, since large upfront capital expenditures are not necessary. Most companies work locally, but large firms work nationally and some, internationally. The largest firms can have up to 75 percent of their projects outside the US, and must therefore establish offices in countries where demand or regulations require a business presence.
