Modern logistics! It would be hard to imagine our daily digital lives without them. As consumers, we can shop online every day and any hour of the day. We expect everything to arrive on time – whether clothing, printer spare parts or a set of screws. Online shopping is booming: in 2018, courier, express and parcel services, the so-called CEP sector, delivered around 3.5 billion shipments in Germany alone. And this is an upward trend. But how does all this work so smoothly, safely and on time? After all, we live in turbulent times: digitalization, climate crisis, growing world population and political and economic instability.

Why is Bill Gates so rich and famous as an entrepreneur?(Brief explanation will do. Please provide an answer. Thank you in advance.)
Although Goldman Sachs paid Heather $110,000.00 per year, she was not satisfied with her job. She had loved going white-water rafting and skiing
with her family in Utah since she was a little girl. So last year, she decided to open her own business: Family Adventures. During the summer, she takes
families on different white-water trips, and in the winter, she leads clients on skiing trips. To start her business, Heather borrowed $100,000 from a
bank and used $80,000.00 of her savings. Her savings earned 10% interest. At the end of the year, she wanted to know whether her new business
venture was worthwhile. The table below lists her total revenue and itemized costs for Family Adventures.

- The Dot-com Bubble or the Tech Bubble was a speculative bubble in the shares of early internet companies called “Dot-coms.” Soon after the 1987 stock market crash, global stock markets resumed their previous bull market trend, led by computer and other technology-related stocks that were traded on the new electronic NASDAQ stock exchange. By the early 1990s, personal computers were becoming increasingly common for both business and personal use.

Personal computers had become genuinely useful business tools that granted their users a significant boost in productivity. Business applications were invented to help users with a variety of tasks from accounting to tax preparation to word processing. Computers also began to compete with television as a form of entertainment as PC video games entered the marketplace.

They were few in 1945 but their populations grew to over 9000 by 1973 and to 30000 by 1990 at a global level. In 2011, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD 2011) observed that there were over 100,000 Multinational companies controlling about 900,000 foreign affiliates. Despite this growth, international businesses in some cases use strict scrutiny of countries which they need to operate in, dependent on whether a country practices democracy or totalitarianism. Some companies find it easier to run their companies in countries practicing democracy and allergy that it is difficult to run it in totalitarian based countries and others endure economies to still operate in both types of economies.

Mary purchased a machine for $450,000 that sorts the apples by size. The largest apples are sold as loose apples to the various stores, the medium-sized apples are bagged and sold to the grocers in their bagged state, and the smallest apples are sold to deep discounters or to a local manufacturing plant that processes the apples into applesauce. Mary is considering keeping the small apples and processing them into apple juice that would be sold under Mary’s own label to local grocers. The small apples currently sell to the deep discounters and local manufacturers for $1.10 per dozen. The variable cost to prepare the small apples for sale, including transporting the apples, is $0.30 per dozen. Mary can sell each gallon of organic apple juice for $3.50 per gallon.
