正确答案：A

正确答案：
(a) Of vital importance is the need for reliable information on which to base the decision regarding the potential investment within
Tomorrowland, since the lack of such information will only serve to increase the risk profile of GHG.
The strategic factors that ought to be considered prior to a decision being made to build and operate a hotel in Tomorrowland
are as follows:
The competition
The key notion here is that of the position of GHG relative to its competitors who may have a presence or intend to have a
presence in Tomorrowland. The strategic management accounting system should be capable of coping with changes that can
and will inevitably occur in a dynamic business environment. Hence it is crucial that changes such as, the emergence of a
new competitor, are detected and reflected within strategic plans at the earliest opportunity.
The government
The attitude of the government of Tomorrowland towards foreign organisations requires careful consideration as inevitably the
government will be the country’s largest supplier, employer, customer and investor. The directors need to recognise that the
political environment of Tomorrowland could change dramatically with a change in the national government.
Planning and control of operations within Tomorrowland
Planning and control of operations within Tomorrowland will inevitably be more difficult as GHG might not possess sufficient
knowledge of the business environment within Tomorrowland. Indeed their nearest hotel is at least 3,000 kilometres away.
It is vital the GHG gain such knowledge prior to commencing operations within Tomorrowland in order to avoid undue risks.
The sociological–cultural constraints
While it is generally recognised that there is a growing acceptability of international brands this might not be the case with
regard to Tomorrowland. The attitude towards work, managers (especially foreign nationals) and capitalist organisations could
severely impact on the degree of success achieved within Tomorrowland. In this respect it is vital that consideration is given
to recognition of the relationships in economic life including demand, price, wages, training, and rates of labour turnover and
absenteeism.
Resource utilisation
A primary consideration relates to whether or not to use local labour in the construction of the hotel. The perceived
‘remoteness’ of Tomorrowland might make it an unattractive proposition for current employees of GHG, thereby presenting the
directors of GHG with a significant problem.
Communication
Consideration needs to be given to the communication problems that arise between different countries and in this respect
Tomorrowland is probably no exception. Language barriers will inevitably exist and this needs to be addressed at the earliest
opportunity to minimise any risks to GHG.
The economic factors that ought to be considered prior to a decision being made to build and operate a hotel in Tomorrowland
are as follows:
Resource availability
The hotel should be designed having given due consideration to the prevailing climatic conditions within Tomorrowland which
might necessitate the use of specific types of building materials. It might well be the case that such building materials are not
available locally, or are in such scarce supply in which case local supply would prove to be uneconomic.
Another consideration relates to local labour being available and reliable in terms of its quality.
Currency stability/restrictions
The stability of the currency within Tomorrowland assumes critical significance because profit repatriation is problematic in
situations where those profits are made in an unstable currency or one that is likely to depreciate against the home currency,
thereby precipitating sizeable losses on exchange. Any currency restrictions need to be given careful consideration. For
example, it might be the case that hotel guests would be prohibited from paying accommodation bills in a foreign currency
which would be problematic if the local currency was weak.
Legislation
All local and International legislation should be given careful consideration. It might be the case that local legislation via
various licences or legal requirements favour local hotels.
Demand
The potential demand within Tomorrowland will be linked to the local economy. It is a developing economy and this may
bode well for GHG. However, again the need for reliable information about the size of the market, the extent of competition,
likely future trends etc is of fundamental importance.
Financing
An important decision lies in the availability and associated costs of financing in Tomorrowland which might not have mature
enough capital markets due to its developmental state. Hence GHG might need to finance using alternative currencies.
Note: Other relevant comments would be acceptable.
