Which of the following statements does not accurately describe
how your company's performance is scored on the Investor
Expectations Standard?
1 The investor expectations standard for scoring your company's
performance is based on your company's success in meeting or
beating each year's expected performance targets for EPS, return on
equity or ROE, stock price, credit rating, and image rating.
2 Meeting each expected performance target is worth some number
of points based on the scoring weight your instructor selected; for
example, if the scoring weight for EPS is 20% or 20 points, meeting
the EPS target earns a score of 20 on the EPS performance
measure.
3 Your company will receive an annual Investor Expectation Score
of 125 for exactly meeting all five of the Board of Directors
performance targets; if your company exactly meets fewer than all
five targets, then your company will receive 20 points for each
exactly met target and a potential bonus of 4 points for beating
any given target by 5% or more.
4 There is a Game-to-Date or "all-years" Investor Expectation
Score that measures the degree to which your company achieves or
exceeds the five expected performance targets over all
years of the exercise completed so far.
5 Your company will receive an annual best-in-industry score and
a best-in-industry score for all years completed.

The unit sales of of unmanned aerial view (UAV) drones is
projected to grow
1/ 12%-14% worldwide in Years 8-9, 5%-7% in Europe-Africa Years
10-11 and 5%-7% in Latin America in Years 12-13.
2/ 11-%-13% in both Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region in
Years 8-9 .
3/ 14%-16% in North America in Years 6-7 and 14%-!6% in Latin
America in Years 10-11.
4/ 8%-10% in Europe-Africa and 11%-13% in Latin America in Years
10-11.
5/ 17%-19% per year in the Europe-Africa region in Years 6-7,
declining to 8% to 10% in Years 10-11, and to 5%-7% in Years
14-15.

Which of the following does not accurately describe your
company's camera/drone business and operations?
1 Once the company's action-capture cameras are assembled and
tested, the company ships them across the world to multi-store
chains and online retailers that sell electronics products and to a
wide variety of local retail shops stocking and merchandising (or
sometimes renting) action-capture cameras to their customers.
2 All of the unmanned aerial view (UAV) drones assembled at the
Taiwan plant are sold directly to online retailers of commercial
drones in each geographic region; drone buyers can visit the
company's website to obtain information about its drone models and
to view a list of online retailers who stock the company's drone
models but site visitors cannot make a purchase directly from the
company.
3 The company has two buildings for assembling products at its
Taiwan site--one for cameras and one for drones (the drone assembly
process also includes assembly of an action-camera model having
features and specifications suitable for use in camera-equipped
drones). No camera models or drone models are assembled in advance,
warehoused in company facilities, and then used to fill incoming
orders.
4 Many countries have opted to impose import duties on cameras
and drones sourced from Taiwan. Going into Year 6, import duties
equal 4% of the average price the company charges customers in
Europe-Africa, and 6% of the average price being charged to
customers in both Latin America and the Asia-Pacific; there are no
import duties on either cameras or drones shipped to customers in
North America.
5 Your company has regional facilities in each of the four
geographic regions to conduct marketing efforts, support the
merchandising efforts of regional retailers who stock the company's
brand of action-capture cameras and UAV drones, and to process
camera/drone warranty claims.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which of the following statements about your company's assembly
operations for cameras and drones is FALSE?
1 Shifting to robot-assisted assembly requires increasing PAT
compensation by 25%, because robot-assisted assembly is more
complex and requires use of more highly-skilled PAT members.
2 Robot-assisted assembly can be used in one assembly facility
and manual assembly can be used in the other assembly facility--it
is NOT necessary to shift to robot-assisted assembly for both
cameras and drones simultaneously.
3 If the company decides to shift from manual assembly to
robotics-assisted assembly for cameras and/or drones, ALL existing
workstations in a camera or drone assembly facility must be
upgraded to include the use of a robot and all workstations added
thereafter in that facility must be robot-equipped.
4 The capital costs of new workstations, facilities expansions,
and robotics upgrades are paid in full in the year they occur.
5 The manufacturers of robots have recently developed small
robots capable of performing some of the tasks/work steps in
assembling both action cameras and UAV drones; installing one of
these robots at each camera/drone workstation enables the size of
PATs to be cut from 4 persons to 3 persons.

The company has its camera and drone assembly facilities in
1 Japan.
2 Mexico.
3 Thailand.
4 Taiwan.
5 Singapore.
