Some managers believe that residual income is superior to return on investment as a
means of measuring performance, since it encourages the manager to make investment decisions that are more consistent with the interests of the company as a whole.

Describe the three types of mergers and give real-world examples.
On May 28, 2024
A horizontal merger occurs between two competitors that sell similar products in the same geographic market. A real-world example of such mergers is Heinz purchasing Kraft. A vertical merger occurs between firms at different stages of the production process. Vertical mergers are mergers between firms that have buyer-seller relationships. A real-world example of such mergers are PepsiCo's mergers with Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and KFC. PepsiCo supplies soft drinks to each of these fast-food outlets. A conglomerate merger is any merger that is not horizontal or vertical; in general, it is the combination of firms in different industries or firms operating in different geographic areas. Conglomerate mergers can extend the line of products sold, extend the territory in which products are sold, or combine totally unrelated companies. A real-world example of conglomerate mergers is the merger between Amazon (e-commerce)and the Whole Foods Markets (supermarkets).

At a convenience store, Allyson bought a bag of chips she had never tried before. Driving down the road, Allyson opened the bag, took a bite, and realized she had purchased pork rinds by mistake. Being a vegetarian, Allyson threw away the chips. She felt very little buyer's remorse and soon forgot about the experience. Why?

Buyer's remorse or postpurchase cognitive dissonance is generally greater for products that are expensive, infrequently purchased, and involve perceived risk. None of that applies to snack food purchases.
