A)True
B)False
Answer: False
Q2) How does competitive strategy determine value chain structure?
Answer: Porter defined value as the amount of money that a customer is willing to pay for a resource, product, or service.A value chain is a network of value-creating activities.Organizations analyze the structure of their industry and formulate a competitive strategy using that analysis.They then need to organize and structure the organization to implement that strategy.If, for example, the competitive strategy is to be a cost leader, then business activities need to be developed to provide essential functions at the lowest possible cost.A business that selects a differentiation strategy would not necessarily structure itself around least-cost activities.Instead, such a business might choose to develop more costly systems, but it would do so only if those systems provided benefits that outweighed their risks.
