Testra Case Study

Deregulation of industries has been an important part of the microeconomic reform policies for the Australian economy. For example in the agricultural sector, marketing boards which were often the only buyer and seller of farm output have been dismantled. In the wheat, egg and dairy industries deregulation has allowed a market economy, free of excessive central control, improve efficiencies and competitiveness by forcing inefficient operators out of the markets and the remaining operators to adopt technological change in order to survive. Deregulation has also been introduced in the financial sector, the transport industry and in the telecommunications industry. In the case of the telecommunications industry which was once dominated by one monopoly provider, telecom (Telstra) the market was opened up to Optus and Vodafone before being opened up to full competition.

Telstra is Australia’s largest and most efficient telecommunications company, which provides one of the best-known brands in the country. They offer a full range of services and compete in all areas of telecommunications both domestically and internationally. Telstra’s vision is to enhance its position as the leading full service telecommunications and information Service Company in Australia as well as to expand its presence internationally.

Telus appeared in the late 1990’s by the merger of Alberta-based Telus and BC Telecom in an environment of significant changes for the incumbent carriers who had previously enjoyed a monopolized service offering. Soon after its creation Telus found itself in the early 2000 to be facing major hurdles of maintaining its financing plans. The early 2000 offered an environment of increased competition for telecom companies, saw the crash of the dot-com bubble and offered a weaker business climate as a result of the 9/11 tragedy. Within this environment, the ratings by credit rating companies had a profound influence on how telecom companies would continue to do business.

If the company did go public, its share price should be $384.37 for per share with the rapid growth scenario.

Because we have not been notified of any substantial changes within the company’s financing agenda or asset acquisition goals, we find it safe to assume that Telus will continue to use the same financing weights in the near future. Another thing that we believe Telus should consider is avoiding the issuance of Preferred Stock in the future. Although this type of stock is less restricted, it can considerably affect the company’s overall cost of capital based on a higher after-tax cost and given that this type of stock is not tax

The future of the telecommunication industry is an exciting future. No longer can these companies depend on telephone service plans to maintain profit. Each company needs to find other avenues, packages and services that can be sold to existing customers while attracting new customers. The companies

From the literature, Telstra has been a long term sponsor of the Australian Olympics team but currently it is not the sponsor of the team. The issue is that Telstra has been using the advertising campaign ‘I go to Rio’ and have a similar advert stating they are ‘Official Technology Partner of Seven’s Olympic Games Coverage’. This is contrary to the real situation since the team had a different telecommunications partner during the Rio 2016 Olympics. The Australian Olympics team was sponsored by Optus which is the Official telecommunications partner of the team as stated by the literature (Toscano, 2016).

As for my thought on investing in my company, I am pretty content with my investments in Costco. At the beginning of third quarter I invested a lot of my money into Costco. I quickly found out Costco was a inconsistant company. Some days Costco would be way up in the stock market, and other days prices would plummet. When the game reset for fourth quarter I made sure to only buy one share so that I am not losing too much in one place. Buying one share was a smart decision, because almost everyday the price plummets or

Telstra have dominated the telecommunications market for over a century by providing integrated services with vast geographical coverage. Telstra’s main areas of expertise are providing telephone, mobile, internet services and its 3G network to households and businesses across Australia with 9.2 million fixed line services and 9.7 million mobile services. Telstra have strived to be number one in their industry and achieve ultimate customer satisfaction (Telstra website 2009).

The telecommunications coverage in rural and regional areas in Australia has monopolistic characteristics. Telstra has a competitive advantage over Optus with 99.3% coverage of the population compared to Optus with a 98.5%, this is equivalent to an estimated 192,000 more potential customers. Although Telstra has this competitive advantage they claim that the revenue received from their rural base stations does not cover the cost of development and maintenance.3.

I purchased thirteen shares of this stock for $1,056.12, each stock individually costing $81.24. Before purchasing this stock, the price it was last traded at was $80.23. Over the course of 52 weeks, the stock price was between $56.36 and $84.73. The price range for today is between $80.23 and $81.62. The reason I purchased this stock is because the stock price has been rising over the course of the year and I anticipate that this will bring great revenue.

Before we go into details on what would make us successful it was clear that showing just the expected responses will certainly not impress them much. There are only 15 intents and it is highly likely all other vendors demonstrated those.
