Task Name:  Phase
4

Deliverable Length:  A
completed table + 850 – 1,000 word summary

Due Date:  3 May 15

As an owner of a visible business
that is valued in the community, you are making a final decision regarding the
international aspects of a business decision, and you decide to set up a table
with the risks and weigh their relative importance against the rate of return
you foresee. You also need to put a plan in place to overcome it. Two main
considerations are central to the decision:

• Would the government encourage a decision to expand?
• How would it affect the reputation of the business?

Your assignment is to fill in the
table and then provide a brief summary of your decision, highlighting the two
above considerations. The following are instructions for completing the table:

• Choose an industry with which you are familiar or have
  an interest.
• For each risk type listed in the table, indicate with
  an X in the appropriate column whether the risk will affect them as
  an importer or an exporter.
• Also, make an assumption of what type of business
  (large, medium, or small) you will be using for each risk type by marking
  L, M, or S in the column.
• Using these factors, provide a brief answer on how to
  overcome the risk for the industry and the business.
