UNIT 5 - international businesses
Whole Learning Aim Assignments

Learning aim A: Explore the international context for business
operations

Introduction:

In this section of the assignment, I will provide a comprehensive overview of international
business and crucial relationships. International businesses are those who transport goods or
services throughout the world, trade abroad, and provide their products and services to the
rest of the world in order to increase their profitability and influence as well as establish
broader brand recognition and awareness of their organisation. International trade has a big
impact on the domestic economy. It occurs in an internationally competitive market, where
both small and major enterprises are participating.

Understanding the Global business environment

The global marketplace is a platform where all consumers or potential customers for a product
or service from all over the world gather together and purchase products and services from
either a large or small multinational firm. Today, the success of these firms is determined by
how corporate executives respond to various worldwide situations affecting business
operations. The global environment is crucial to the functioning of businesses. The global
environment affects firms in their everyday interactions, yet they are typically outside
management's control and continually alter. Enterprises that meet the needs of global
environmental variables obtain greater performance, enhanced morale hence resulting in
higher job satisfaction, and, ultimately, a higher profit margin for individuals and their
businesses. Samsung is an example of an enterprise that has been impacted by the global
market. The firm's situation has deteriorated as a result of the ongoing trade war between the
United States and China. Samsung faces import restrictions on some essential production items,
as well as restrictions on selling their products in both domestic and international markets. For
example, US restrictions on Huawei, a major buyer of Samsung memory chips, have reduced
demand for the company's chips and forced it to cut prices, primarily due to trade disputes
between the US and China. Samsung. In addition, geopolitical difficulties and a technological
downturn have weighed heavily on the company. The trade war between the United States
(US) and China has shook the global tech supply chain and pushed up the price of memory chips
used in phones and data centres.

, Pestle AND POLICIES WITH THE GLOBAL BUSINESS MARKET (apple)

Apple is a multibillion-dollar corporation that focuses on devices, software, and internet
services. Apple is the world's most valuable firm, the fourth-largest personal computer provider
by unit sales, and the second-largest mobile phone manufacturer as of January 2021. Along
with Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft, it is one of the Big Five American information
technology corporations. Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne created Apple
Computer Company on April 1, 1976, to build and sell Wozniak's Apple I personal computer.
Jobs and Wozniak formed Apple Computer, Inc. in 1977, and the Apple II, the company's next
computer, became a bestseller. In 1980, Apple went public, resulting in immediate financial
success.

Political factors:

Apple is primarily reliant on China's lower-cost manufacturing. Manufacturing in China could be
disrupted, or expenses raised as a result of social and political instability. There have also been
suggestions to impose import restrictions on Chinese goods in the US in order to stimulate
American manufacturing. Moreover, Apple's reliance on Chinese production and markets puts
it vulnerable to political turmoil in the country, and the company might become a target of
rising nationalism and anti-Americanism in China, reducing its market share. Apple also faces
political problems in America; Apple is one of a number of American technology businesses
with significant cash reserves. On June 30, 2015, it had $34.7 billion in the bank. In the United
States, where income disparity has become a major political problem, this is prompting
proposals for more corporate taxation. Bruit has also made changes to trade.

Economic Factors:

Economic growth, inflation, deflation, unemployment rate, and wage policies are some of the
important economic elements that affect Apple's company performance and conditions.
Economic stability in industrialised countries, rapid economic growth in developing countries,
and rising disposable income among target consumers are all major chances for Apple's
expansion. However, while examining all economic options, it is critical to keep in mind all of
the worldwide market's competitive pressures. These external strategic drivers represent the
company's and its competitors' potential for growth, particularly huge international
corporations like Samsung and Huawei. Because Apple products are high-end, the target
demographic is mostly high-end customers. As a result of its premium pricing approach, Apple
is having difficulty breaking into the Asian market, which has stronger growth rates and greater
prospects for a tech company like Apple. A strong US dollar might raise exchange rates, making
