PAPER#3--Explain the nature and general purpose of financial statements.
Ans ) statement prepared to meet the needs of all financial statement users as opposed to meeting the needs of only a particular group such as investors, creditors, management, or regulatory bodies. This is the purpose of financial statements based on GAAP. Financial statements are written records of business finances, including balance sheets and profit and loss statements. They stand as one of the most essential components of business information, and as the principal method of communicating financial information about an entity to outside parties. In a technical sense, financial statements are a summation of the financial position of an entity at a given point in time. General purpose financial statements are designed to meet the needs of many diverse users, particularly present and potential owners and creditors. Financial statements result from simplifying, condensing, and aggregating masses of data obtained primarily from a company's (or individual's) accounting system
What is meant by the term 'Just-in-Time' Inventory system?
Ans ) Pull driven inventory system in which materials, parts, sub-assemblies, and support items are delivered just when needed and neither sooner nor later. Its objective is to eliminate product inventories from the supply. As much a managerial philosophy as an inventory system, JIT encompasses all activities required to make a final product from design engineering onwards to the last manufacturing operation. JIT systems are fundamentals to time based competition and rely on waste reduction, process simplification, setup time and batch size reduction, parallel processing, and shop floor layout redesign. Under JIT management, shipments are made within rigidly enforced 'time windows' and all items must be within the specification with very little or no inspection. It was developed and perfected by Taiichi Ohno of Toyota corporation during 1960s.
Differentiate between push and pull strategies for promotion.
Ans ) A push strategy is when a company proactively and aggressively markets or promotes a product or product line to the market place or a market segment. This can be through cold calling, direct mail, sending email blasts, advertising, etc. in which the company explicitly asks a prospective consumer to take action such as:
"Buy Now!" "Call Today" Sign Up Now" "For More Info Visit..."
Some times push strategy is accompanied by a sense of urgency and limited time offers and one-time incentives to prompt consumers' immediate action.
On the other hand a pull strategy is more passive than aggressive. In this case companies may have longer term strategy in mind. A company may look to instill top of mind awareness in the marketplace or build its Brand equity. Another twist to pull offers, is FREE Offers, this is when prospects are offered free trials, free information passively. The purpose behind this is to generate leads to which marketers can later promote back-end offers, in fact sometimes marketers will lose money upfront because they know they'll make up their money in the back-end. Good examples are: Coke Commercials (Enjoy Coca, Polar, Polar Bears) Lexus Commercials, Free Offers on the internet or ON TV.
To summarize a push strategy is aggressive, direct and calls prospects to action. A pull strategy is passive, instills a message for top of mind awareness or to build Brand equity.

Ans Various sources used by marketers to send marketing messages to potential consumers. Communication channels may be personal, involving two or more persons communicating directly with each other, such as a customer/salesperson relationship, or impersonal such as bill boards etc.
Types of communications:
· Verbal Communication
Verbal communication is further divided into written and oral communication. The oral communication refers to the spoken words in the communication process. Oral communication can either be face-to-face communication or a conversation over the phone or on the voice chat over the Internet. Spoken conversations or dialogs are influenced by voice modulation, pitch, volume and even the speed and clarity of speaking. The other type of verbal communication is written communication. Written communication can be either via snail mail, or email. The effectiveness of written communication depends on the style of writing, vocabulary used, grammar, clarity and precision of language.· Nonverbal Communication
Non-verbal communication includes the overall body language of the person who is speaking, which will include the body posture, the hand gestures, and overall body movements. The facial expressions also play a major role while communication since the expressions on a person's face say a lot about his/her mood. On the other hand gestures like a handshake, a smile or a hug can independently convey emotions. Non verbal communication can also be in the form of pictorial representations, signboards, or even photographs--
