Chapter 1 Questions

1.) Manufacturing Companies cover the gamut from Aerospace, pharmaceuticals metal
fabrication, and racing catamarans to textiles, automated food production, composites,
and industrial ceramics.
2.) The opportunity to carefully select the best processes to form separate, fabricate,
condition, or finish materials to make a product is a rewarding experience. If the
economy from manufacturing was considered alone, it would be the eighth largest
economy in the world, surpassing the total economy of most countries.
3.) Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing
&
Surgical and Marketing Medical Equipment Manufacturing
4.)
5.) One great important concern that should be addressed concerning global competition
would be the growth of industrial manufacturing global sales. When sales are positively
strong they are more than likely a great environmental improvement dealing with some
of the large companies that bonds with this company. It also can cause a disadvantage
because it can cause some of the smaller companies outside of these companies. The
rise in one company may have a large gross rate leaving another company the ability to
lose out on what they were intentionally able to withhold on their production.
Importantly speaking that if one company is winning then the opposite company is
losing because they have the power over the global manufacturing competition.
6.) Japan & China:
In Japan they have the production of buying and selling to the United States and
provides an upscale of production with the sales rate of some manufacturing products.
Japan and China has a great export in the industries which include automobiles,
consumer electronics, computers, semiconductors, copper, iron, and steel. Some things
that I have gotten out the book would be a great example like Aerospace, Textiles, and
Pharmaceuticals. These manufacturing companies may have a great effect on citizens
because it holds a great range in the field of producing income and jobs. Allowing the
opportunity to have a rate of production in which you have to upstand in order to keep
your mass production rate at its up rise or general rate.
