Q1.
In an industry with high fixed costs and low marginal costs, two firms compete in
quantities. If the firms collude, they can earn monopoly profits. However, each firm has an
incentive to cheat. Using the logic of repeated games, under which condition is collusion
most likely sustainable?


A. The discount factor is low, and the firms B. The discount factor is high, and the firms
compete in a finite horizon game. employ a grim trigger strategy.

C. The number of firms is large, and the D. The firms have asymmetric cost
market growth rate is high. structures and use price competition.
Correct: B - The discount factor is high, and the firms employ a grim trigger strategy.


Rationale:Collusion is sustainable in infinitely repeated games when the discount factor is
sufficiently high, making future losses from cheating outweigh short-term gains. A grim trigger
strategy (permanent reversion to Cournot competition) is a common punishment mechanism.
Low discount factors, finite horizons, and large numbers of firms undermine collusion.

Q2.
A multinational corporation is deciding between a joint venture and a wholly owned
subsidiary for entering a foreign market where intellectual property rights are weak. Which
entry mode is most likely to minimize the risk of knowledge leakage?


A. Joint venture with a local partner who B. Wholly owned subsidiary, despite higher
provides market access. investment and political risk.

C. Franchising to local operators with strict D. Exporting through independent
contractual clauses. distributors.
Correct: B - Wholly owned subsidiary, despite higher investment and political risk.


Rationale:A wholly owned subsidiary gives the firm full control over its operations and
knowledge assets, reducing the risk of unintended knowledge spillovers. Joint ventures and
franchising require sharing proprietary information, increasing leakage risk. Exporting
minimizes control over distribution but does not involve direct knowledge transfer.

Q3.
A firm's board of directors is composed of a majority of independent directors, and the
CEO also serves as board chair. According to agency theory, which governance
mechanism would best mitigate the conflict of interest inherent in this dual role?


A. Appointing a lead independent director B. Increasing the number of board meetings
with authority to call board meetings. per year.

, Section A - Project



C. Tying CEO compensation entirely to D. Requiring all directors to own significant
stock options. equity in the firm.

Correct: A - Appointing a lead independent director with authority to call board meetings.


Rationale:A lead independent director provides a counterbalance to the CEO-chair,
enhancing board independence and oversight. More meetings do not guarantee
effectiveness; stock options may exacerbate risk-taking; director equity ownership can align
interests but does not directly address the dual role conflict.

Q4.
A technology firm with a dominant market position faces a disruptive innovation from a
startup. The startup's product initially underperforms on key attributes but appeals to an
overlooked segment. Which strategic response is most consistent with the innovator's
dilemma?


A. Immediately acquire the startup to absorb B. Ignore the startup and focus on improving
the technology. existing products for mainstream customers.

C. Spin off an independent unit to develop a D. Aggressively lower prices to capture the
competing disruptive product. low-end segment.
Correct: C - Spin off an independent unit to develop a competing disruptive product.


Rationale:The innovator's dilemma suggests that established firms struggle to respond to
disruptive innovations because they are incentivized to serve mainstream customers. A
spin-off allows the firm to pursue the disruptive technology without cannibalizing its core
business or being constrained by existing processes. Ignoring the threat risks eventual
displacement; acquisition may fail due to cultural clashes; price-cutting may not sustain.

Q5.
In a balanced scorecard framework, a company aiming to improve customer satisfaction
should first focus on leading indicators. Which of the following is a leading indicator for
customer satisfaction?


A. Number of customer complaints resolved. B. Percentage of sales from new products.

C. Employee training hours per quarter. D. Customer survey scores from the
previous year.
Correct: A - Number of customer complaints resolved.


Rationale:Leading indicators predict future outcomes. The number of complaints resolved is
a process measure that can forecast future satisfaction. Sales from new products may relate
to innovation but not directly to satisfaction; employee training is a learning and growth
measure; survey scores are lagging indicators of past performance.
