Cemex

Cement industry is one of the most attractive industries now as concrete is the second most consumed product in the world. The cement industry is however characterized by their pricing system (basing point system), its cartel nature and its entry restrictions. The CEMEX case depicts the good business strategies, excellent leadership and how to be successful in the global market. The interesting aspect of the case is how CEMEX maneuvered in to the global market and was recognized as the third largest cement company. Thus, how it overcame the issues of trade sanctions, the crisis in its operating countries, its acquisition strategy etc. is astounding. CEMEX really understood the concept of globalization and International management.

If GDP is increasing by 3% per year how long will it take GDP to double?

My prediction is that GDP will increase steadily in the future. According to econedlink.org, a nation’s maximum or potential GDP or its potential output is the highest level of output that can be maintained over the long term, given any constraints on the nation’s productive resources. And a limit supply of labor, natural resource, service and capital will result in the limit of potential output, which means, the limit of GDP (2015, econedlink). Besides, according to our textbook, the determinants of economic growth to which we can attribute changes in growth rates include four supply factors: changes in the quantity and quality of natural resources, changes in the quantity and quality of human resources, changes in the stock of capital goods, and improvements in technology (2015, McConnell)

Questions: 1.   What benefits have CEMEX and the other global competitors in cement derived from globalization? More broadly, how can cross-border activities add value in an industry as apparently localized as cement?

Our choices led to a constant increase in net income over the three years. Short term debt increase by approximately 100% percent but steadily reduced over the next three years. We were happy with the positive growth of the company and the fact that we were able to pay off most of the initial short term funding required by the increase in working capital requirement. Overall the current situation of the company in 2018 is good, although the total value created is less than 20% of that created in phase 1. From this we learned that the value of the firm can be significantly increased more through a reduction in working capital requirement than through increasing the firm’s sales and net income.
