Complete Quarter 5 Decisions
Using the $5 million investment provided, your performance will be measured based upon how well you manage the division during this second year.
The Balanced Scorecard is the key indicator of your performance. Spend your money wisely and maximize your performance. In this quarter, there are two new decisions with which you are faced. First, you can invest in research and development on new brand features. These new features are desired by one or more customer segments and can greatly expand your market demand. Second, you will now be able to advertise in regional media. Regional media are more effective in reaching your target audience. They are also more expensive, but if you have two or more sales offices in a region, they can be very economical.
