Midwest Electronics' Asian Expansion
內容大綱
In the spring of 2012, the executive team at Midwest Electronics decided to manufacture its products in Asia for the Asian market. That was a challenging new direction for the company, and subsequent difficult decisions-where to situate the factory, whether to build a new facility or acquire an existing one, and how to finance the project-would also need to be made. This case presents students with the company's summary financial statements, as well as labor, real estate, and cost of capital information, in order to assess the myriad of financial, cultural, and political questions that arise when a company considers relocating some of its manufacturing abroad.
