The purpose of this study is to assess REDUCING THE IMPCT OF DEMAND FLACTUATIONS ON MANAGERIAL ECONOMICS THROUGH DECISSION MAKING PROCESS IN MOGADISHU-SOMALIA, in this opening chapter, we introduce the background of the study and describe the business dilemma. In addition to this, we will discuss the purpose and delimitations of the study, alongside with the research questions. Furthermore, the structure of the study will be presented to conclude the chapter. Decision making lies at the heart of most important business and government problems. The range of business decisions is vast: Should a high-tech company undertake a promising but expensive research and development program? Should a petrochemical manufacturer cut the price of its best-selling industrial chemical in response to a new competitor's entry into the market? What bid should company management submit to win a government telecommunications contract? Should management of a food products company launch a new product after mixed test-marketing results? Likewise, government decisions range far and wide: Should the Department of Transportation impose stricter rollover standards for sports utility vehicles? Should a city allocate funds for construction of a harbor tunnel to provide easy airport and commuter access? These are all interesting, important, and timely questions-with no easy answers. They are also all economic decisions. In each case, a sensible analysis of what decision to make requires a careful comparison of the advantages and disadvantages (often, but not always, measured in dollars) of alternative courses of action. As the term suggests, managerial economics is the analysis of major management decisions using the tools of economics. Managerial economics applies many familiar concepts from economics-demand and cost, monopoly and competition, the allocation of resources, and economic tradeoffs to aid managers in making better decisions. This book provides the framework and the economic tools needed to fulfill this goal

April 2007L’université de Paris 1 n’entend donner aucune approbation ni improbation aux opinions émises dans cette thèse. Ces opinions doivent être considérées comme propres à leur auteur. 1 Acknowledgements I am especially grateful to my PhD supervisors, Bernard Paulré and Giovanni Dosi, who, surprisingly enough, always managed to make time to read my early drafts and discuss them with me despite their busy schedules. Indeed, many of the better ideas to be found in this thesis emerged from discussions with them.

This essay examines the relationship between strategic management and economics. It introduces the special issue on this same topic by providing a guide to the eight papers contained in the special issue, and it offers the guest editors viewpoints on the contributions of each discipline to the other. The essay notes the major contribution from economics has been primarily from the industrial organization literature, with promises of important gains to be made from the ‘new’ economics as it breaks away from the neoclassical theory of the firm. Contributions from strategic management to economics are noted. Areas for further research utilizing the relationship between strategic management and economics are also indicated.

Geographic coordinates of Elektrostal, Moscow Oblast, Russia

Coordinates of elektrostal in decimal degrees, coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
