(Choose either a. or b.) a. Your company is entering into a long-term sales contract with a corporation in Italy, but your management is concerned with the effects of currency fluctuations if you agree to fixed prices over the 10-year period of the agreement. As a manager, what specific concerns would you have about this agreement, and what steps could you take in order to avoid risks? b. The company for which you work subcontracts 80% of the manufacturing of its product to companies in Brazil, Costa Rica, and Mexico. You learn through economic analysis that wage rates are expected to increase by 10% in Brazil, 15% in Mexico and 20% in Costa Rica during the coming year. How will this affect your company's operations, and what decisions might result from this information? (Assume that current manufacturing costs for the subcontracts are as follows: Brazil 60% of your domestic cost, and Mexico and Costa Rica are 50% of the domestic cost with nearly all of the costs being labor and overhead)
