please answer all the questions

The Project To test your understanding of the knowledge and skills presented in the IBM 130 - Feasibility of International Trade course, you must write a Feasibility Research Report for a potential international trade initiative. The research report must outline the research taken to determine the feasibility of an international business opportunity of company of your choice. You can select a public or a private company and should be a company from North America Canada or USA. It should relate to either an exporting or importing opportunity for an existing or new product or service for an identified target market. Based on your report, the organization reviewing it should have all the information it needs to determine the feasibility of the particular international venture. You will work in groups of 5 or individually as you wish. Please make sure all students names and numbers are included in the submission The steps to follow are: 1. Identify the potential international trade initiative, providing details on the product or service, whether the opportunity is for export or import, and which market you plan to target. 2. Outline the research objectives, methodology and data sources used. Refer to Evaluation Criteria for more details on each of these components. 3. Conduct secondary research to gather data, trends and facts to inform your report. 4. Collect, organize and analyze the research data. 5. Write a comprehensive research report to assess the feasibility of the potential trade initiative using the Evaluation Criteria as an organizational guide Submission Format 1. Please submit your project (Feasibility Research Report) electronically using the Google Classroom Assignment Dropbox. 2. The project must contain a title page with: a. The name of the company b. The product or service and target market. C. The course title (Feasibility of International Trade) d. Please include the Student names and student ID number(s) of the person(s) who prepared the plan. 3. The acceptable fonts are Times New Roman (no smaller than 11pt) and Arial (no smaller than 10pt). Line spacing must be 1.5. Plagiarism is NOT tolerated. Evidence of plagiarism will result in the student or group members receiving a mark of "O". Project Guidelines Please keep in mind that I will be looking for several things, which you should keep in mind when developing your project: Present a well-organized, logical project that reflects both descriptive and analytical abilities. Consider options and alternatives, make recommendations and explain your rationale for the selection. The process of arriving at a recommendation or conclusion can be more important, in some cases, than the recommendation itself. Structure the project in line with the Evaluation Criteria. Review the expectations related to each section of the project and ensure you address these thoroughly. Look carefully at the grading scheme. In general, if a section is worth twice as much as another, your project should reflect that proportion. Remember that these projects are your opportunity to demonstrate learning, understanding and retention of international trade concepts. Sometimes, considering an alternative and dismissing it (with supporting rationale) can be very effective in demonstrating an understanding of the material. Metrics and financials are important elements of any serious report or analysis. Descriptions are important and qualitative analysis is valuable when properly done. Choose sources carefully and ensure that your project is well-supported with data, metrics and financials. Also, be sure to quote the source of all information and references provided. Each project provides the opportunity to earn points for the "Overall Format" of the project (see Evaluation Criteria). With minimal effort and a little creativity, you can make your paper visually interesting. Use supporting graphics effectively, organize sections and titles to assist with flow and readability and review grammar and spelling. Pay attention to the quality and organization of your project Evaluation Criteria An evaluator will mark your project based on the criteria below. A separate section for each component listed here should be clearly identified in the plan. The maximum points per section is indicated. Executive Summary 6 Research Objectives 10 Summarize the content of your report and the important aspects. (Maximum one page) Define the business opportunity and outline the questions the research aimed to address. These questions should consider the feasibility of the proposed opportunity, including the viability of the import/export transaction (cost of the transaction) and the risk of the initiative. 10 Research Design and Methodology Explain why these issues are important in importing from or exporting to the markets identified. Identify the type of research or research strategy selected to collect the information needed. Describe which data sources and methodology will be used to address each objective. Describe the key trends, issues and challenges identified, including the potential risks associated with trade in the selected target market, detailed market intelligence and information on competitors. 15 Presentation of Data and Analysis Implications for Cost and Pricing 10 Analysis Outline how the data collected helps to address the research objectives Charts and statistical analysis may be presented to show trends, forecasts and estimates. Address how the information helps to refine a cost and pricing analysis for the proposed transaction by highlighting how data collected allows you to analyze the costs, elaborate a pricing strategy and assess the overall viability of the transaction. Address how the information helps to develop a more in-depth risk analysis and to propose mitigation strategies. Tie all the sections together and provide the reader with a full picture of the important issues for doing business in/with the selected market. Implications for Risk Analysis and 10 Development of Mitigation Strategies Conclusion and Action Plan 12 Present decisions on whether and how the organization should enter the selected market (address the questions if and how the venture is feasible) Highlight any main challenges anticipated and
