The Decline of Manufacturing in the U.S. Economy: Impacts of China's ‘Trade Shock’, Trump's Protectionist Tariffs, and the Drivers of Manufacturing Job Losses (Presentation Slides) 美国经济中制造业的衰落:中国“贸易冲击”的影响,特朗普的保护主义关税,以及制造业失业的驱动因素(演示幻灯片)

The long-term declining role of manufacturing in the U.S. economy – reflecting a shift of the economy after World War II to a post-industrial orientation with an increased emphasis on services – was accelerated by the effects on manufacturing jobs and trade deficits of President Reagan’s budget deficits in the 1980s and China’s recent trade penetration. Similarities of Reagan’s policies to President Trump’s proposed protectionist tariffs and the cross-border corporate tax reform advocated by House Republicans in February 2017 suggest a possible partial reversal of the long-term job decline, but the ensuing major dislocations in jobs are unlikely to lead to a net increase in manufacturing jobs. The magnitude and fast pace of China’s import penetration, coupled with anemic demand for domestic goods and high productivity gains in American factories, are associated with the 33 percent decline of 5.7 million domestic manufacturing jobs in the 2000-10 period – the largest loss in a decade in U.S. history. The effects on manufacturing employment associated with trade, domestic demand, and productivity strongly suggest that the largest impact – accounting for over 85 percent of total manufacturing jobs lost in the 2000s – is attributable to technological advances in U.S. factories sustaining productivity gains, with trade a relatively minor contributory factor, when viewed from the long-term perspective. The superior productivity gains, as well as the vaunted growth in real value-added output, associated with manufacturing are driven by the performance of its computer and electronic products industry, representing only 13 percent of total manufacturing value added. China’s trade competition challenged the prevalent assumption, based on bilateral trade pacts after World War II, suggesting that economies recover from ‘trade shocks’ by displaced workers shifting into higher-productivity export industries. Free trade agreements and China’s trade penetration – with the benefits not evenly distributed in the U.S. – are associated with the geographically-concentrated and unexpected political results of the November 2016 elections.
制造业在美国经济中的作用长期下降——反映了二战后经济向后工业方向的转变,更加强调服务业——在20世纪80年代里根总统的预算赤字对制造业就业和贸易赤字的影响以及中国最近的贸易渗透加速了这一趋势。里根的政策与特朗普总统提出的保护主义关税和众议院共和党人在2017年2月倡导的跨境企业税改革的相似之处表明,长期就业下降可能会部分逆转,但随之而来的重大就业岗位错位不太可能导致制造业就业岗位的净增加。中国进口渗透的规模和速度,加上对国内商品的需求疲软和美国工厂的高生产率增长,导致2000年至2010年期间美国国内制造业就业岗位减少了33%,这是美国历史上十年来最大的损失。与贸易、国内需求和生产率相关的对制造业就业的影响强烈表明,最大的影响——占2000年代制造业总失业人数的85%以上——是由于美国工厂的技术进步维持了生产率的提高,从长期角度来看,贸易是一个相对较小的贡献因素。卓越的生产率增长,以及与制造业相关的实际增值产出的自夸增长,是由其计算机和电子产品行业的表现推动的,这些行业仅占制造业总增加值的13%。中国的贸易竞争挑战了基于二战后双边贸易协定的普遍假设,即失业工人转向生产率更高的出口行业,从而使经济从“贸易冲击”中复苏。自由贸易协定和中国的贸易渗透——其利益在美国的分配并不均匀——与2016年11月选举的地理集中和意想不到的政治结果有关。

Radnet, Inc.: Financing an Acquisition Radnet, Inc.:收购融资
Pub Date : 2017-02-08 DOI: 10.1108/CASE.DARDEN.2016.000246
Susan J. Chaplinsky, Alex Droznik
This case examines issues surrounding the choice of financing arrangements for the acquisition of Radiologix in July 2006. The case follows Mark Stolper, the CFO of RadNet, as he considers how to raise the $363 million in funds necessary to finance the acquisition. When completed, the combined firms will be the largest private diagnostic-imaging provider in the United States. When Stolper joined RadNet in 2003, he confronted a company with “too much debt, and the wrong kind of debt.” His goal is to finance the acquisition in a way that further enhances the financial strength and operating flexibility of the company. Given the large size of funding required, the firm is unlikely to be able to fund the entire transaction with first-lien or bank debt. His financial advisors differ in their recommendations for how to raise the remaining funds—one suggests using second-lien debt, and the other, high-yield debt. The purpose of the case is to familiarize students with frequently encountered types of debt financing that are used to finance mergers and acquisitions and other corporate transactions. The case provides information on the distinctions among first-lien, second-lien, and high-yield debt in relation to their price, availability, flexibility of covenants, repayment ease, and composition of likely investors. The case is designed for use in courses that cover corporate financing, M&As, and debt financing.
本案例探讨了围绕2006年7月收购Radiologix的融资安排选择的问题。这起案件是在RadNet首席财务官马克•斯托尔珀(Mark Stolper)考虑如何筹集这笔收购所需的3.63亿美元资金之后发生的。合并完成后,两家公司将成为美国最大的私人诊断成像供应商。当斯托尔珀2003年加入RadNet时,他面对的是一家“债务太多,而且是错误类型的债务”的公司。他的目标是以一种进一步增强公司财务实力和运营灵活性的方式为收购提供资金。鉴于所需资金规模巨大,该公司不太可能通过第一留置权或银行债务为整个交易提供资金。他的财务顾问对如何筹集剩余资金提出了不同的建议——一个建议使用第二留置权债券,另一个建议使用高收益债券。本案例的目的是让学生熟悉经常遇到的用于并购和其他公司交易融资的债务融资类型。本案例提供了关于第一留置权、第二留置权和高收益债务之间的区别的信息,包括它们的价格、可用性、契约的灵活性、偿还难易程度和可能投资者的组成。本案例设计用于涵盖公司融资、并购和债务融资的课程。

Saying What Needs to Be Said: Role-Plays 说出该说的话:角色扮演
Pub Date : 2017-02-02 DOI: 10.1108/CASE.DARDEN.2016.000272
M. Davidson
This case was designed to build expertise in conflict management and assertiveness by allowing students to practice saying what needs to be said in challenging situations. Grounded in the pedagogy of experiential learning, the case consists of three role-play scenarios that exemplify three challenging business situations. In each scenario, two individuals are faced with a possible difference in perspective or goals. The role-play requires students to assume the role of one of the individuals, and each scenario requires another student to initiate the discussion.
这个案例旨在通过让学生练习在具有挑战性的情况下说出需要说的话,来培养冲突管理和自信方面的专业知识。本案例以体验式学习教学法为基础,由三个角色扮演场景组成,以举例说明三种具有挑战性的商业环境。在每个场景中,两个人都面临着观点或目标可能存在的差异。角色扮演要求学生扮演其中一个人的角色,每个场景都需要另一个学生发起讨论。

In February 1991, the managers of this multinational specialty publishing company proposed to take the company private in a leveraged buyout (LBO). In addition to the ordinarily interesting features of the typical LBO, this transaction was the first to be denominated in ECUs and one of the few in which the managers provided all the equity financing. The tasks for the student are to value the company and evaluate the attractiveness of the transaction from the standpoints of seller, senior lender, mezzanine lender, and equity investor/manager. The case can be used to (1) exercise students' skills in valuing a highly leveraged company, (2) illustrate how deal structuring can mitigate potential agency problems, and (3) explore the problems and possible solutions associated with financing a global firm.
1991年2月,这家跨国专业出版公司的管理层提出了通过杠杆收购(LBO)将公司私有化的建议。除了典型杠杆收购通常令人感兴趣的特点外,这笔交易还是首笔以ecu计价的交易,也是为数不多的由基金经理提供全部股权融资的交易之一。学生的任务是从卖方、高级出借人、夹层出借人和股权投资者/经理的角度对公司进行估值和评估交易的吸引力。该案例可用于(1)锻炼学生评估高杠杆公司的技能,(2)说明交易结构如何减轻潜在的代理问题,以及(3)探索与全球公司融资相关的问题和可能的解决方案。

Euro Disney or Euro Disaster? 欧洲迪士尼还是欧洲灾难?
Pub Date : 2017-01-30 DOI: 10.1108/CASE.DARDEN.2016.000110
L. Grayson, Golnar Sheikholeslami, Kunihiko Amano, Thomas Falck, Virginia Kleinclaus
This case concerns the troubles that Euro Disney experienced from the start. Euro Disney claimed that the major cause of its poor financial performance was the European recession and the strong French franc. The timing of the park's opening could not have been more inopportune. If the recession had been the only cause of Euro Disney's problems, the financial restructuring would only need to carry the park forward to better economic times. Only when Europeans began spending freely again would investors learn the answers to some uncomfortable questions: Was the whole idea of Euro Disney misconceived? Were there other fundamental cultural problems that could inhibit the park's success? Would Euro Disney fail to recover even though other European companies did? And, if so, why was the Disney theme-park concept successful in Japan and not in France?
这个案例涉及到欧洲迪士尼从一开始就遇到的麻烦。欧洲迪斯尼声称,其糟糕的财务表现的主要原因是欧洲经济衰退和坚挺的法国法郎。该公园开放的时机真是太不合时宜了。如果经济衰退是欧洲迪士尼问题的唯一原因,那么财务重组只需要将该公园推向更好的经济时期。只有当欧洲人重新开始自由消费时,投资者才会知道一些令人不安的问题的答案:欧洲迪士尼的整个想法是否被误解了?是否还有其他根本的文化问题会阻碍公园的成功?欧洲迪士尼会不会在其他欧洲公司复苏的情况下也无法复苏?如果是这样的话,为什么迪士尼主题公园的概念在日本成功了,而在法国却没有成功?

Papua New Guinea Economics Graduate Exit Survey 巴布亚新几内亚经济学毕业生退出调查
Pub Date : 2017-01-29 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.2907811
Michael Cornish
To date, little detailed research has been undertaken on the university experience of students in Papua New Guinea, or their career preferences and expectations; this type of research is ordinarily canvassed in graduate exit surveys. This study addresses this gap by analysing and discussing the results of a graduate exit survey of a small cohort of final year undergraduate economic students at the University of Papua New Guinea, whom the author was lecturing. Most graduates sought to be employed within the public sector in Port Moresby, but a sizeable minority sought to run their own businesses. This highlights the need for the only economics degree in Papua New Guinea to expand its focus beyond economic theory to practical policy-making and entrepreneurial skills. Despite the fragility of the current economic environment in Papua New Guinea, graduating economics students were optimistic about their likelihood of employment, if demonstrating quite mixed confidence about the level of knowledge and skills they acquired from their degrees. Particularly concerning were the open criticisms from respondents about the quality of the education they received.Whilst this study was small in scope, it provides useful insights on enhancing the student educational experience at the University of Papua New Guinea and other Papua New Guinean universities.
迄今为止,对巴布亚新几内亚学生的大学经历或他们的职业偏好和期望进行的详细研究很少;这类研究通常在毕业生离职调查中进行。本研究通过分析和讨论对作者授课的巴布亚新几内亚大学(University of Papua New Guinea)一小群最后一年本科经济学学生的毕业调查结果,解决了这一差距。大多数毕业生寻求在莫尔兹比港的公共部门就业,但相当多的少数人寻求经营自己的企业。这凸显了巴布亚新几内亚唯一的经济学学位需要将其重点从经济理论扩展到实际的政策制定和创业技能。尽管巴布亚新几内亚目前的经济环境很脆弱,但即将毕业的经济学学生对就业的可能性持乐观态度,尽管他们对从学位中获得的知识和技能水平表现出相当复杂的信心。特别令人关切的是,答复者公开批评他们所受教育的质量。虽然这项研究的范围很小,但它为加强巴布亚新几内亚大学和其他巴布亚新几内亚大学的学生教育体验提供了有用的见解。

This study addresses this gap by analysing and discussing the results of a graduate exit survey of a small cohort of final year undergraduate economic students at the University of Papua New Guinea, whom the author was lecturing. Most graduates sought to be employed within the public sector in Port Moresby, but a sizeable minority sought to run their own businesses. This highlights the need for the only economics degree in Papua New Guinea to expand its focus beyond economic theory to practical policy-making and entrepreneurial skills.
