ANS 3: Amar, Akbar, Anthony and Amarpreet


Based on each individuals personality, different businesses are recommended
for themAmar should go for a company as he is ambitious and wants to set up a chain of
beauty parlors nationwide. For this purpose, he will need funds from the public
which will enable him to grow his business fast and to a large extent
Akbar does not have large dreams and wants to be self-reliant. For this, he
should go for a sole proprietorship where he alone will invest in and run his
sponge iron business
Anthony should set up his event management firm in the form of a general
partnership. Since he believes in being a team player, he will not look to protect
himself by limiting his liability and will be willing to compensate for his partners
mistakes (if any). Also, creating a general partnership will be simpler and faster
to set-up and more flexible in operating. This is particularly beneficial for a
dynamic business like event management
Amarpreet, being a doctor and wanting to set up a hospital with other doctors
and health care practitioners, should go for a Limited Liability Partnership. This
will protect him and his personal assets from negligence of his partners. His
liability will only be limited to the investment made by him and his personal
assets will not be affected.
ANS 4:KoyasKabs
We do not agree with Koyas loss calculation. It is given that:
1. He used all of his savings to put the down-payment (= INR 285000)
2. The fare was his only source of income
3. The period covered is one year after the purchase of the cab
As such, we can say that all his expenses, personal and professional, added to
his remaining s/b account balance gives us his total revenue in that year

Hence, we can say that Koya over-estimated his loss

ANS 5:

Lehman Brothers case 5 answer

These are the following benefits for starting a subsidiary in a foreign country::
1)Tax Incentives: The country may offer the business at a lower rate or a number of years
without national taxes to aid in establishing the subsidiary.
2) Separate Liability: Corporations create subsidiaries for the specific purpose of limiting

their liability. Liabilities attached to one subsidiary and legal actions against one company do
not threaten the financial health of the parent organization.
3) Establish a new consumer/customer base.
