Consider the global operations of Apple and make use of the learnings from this week in regards to International trade, Government Influence and Trade, and Cross-National Cooperation and Agreements. Write a case study report to the C-level executives located in the US, regarding government intervention, protectionist policies and intl agreements into a country of your choice, that are expected in the period 2015 to 2017 and what actions Apple should take in regards to these issues. Do not use the same country you pick for W3A2 assignment, pick a different country.

Content should be between 600 and 900 words with at least three references and citations (the textbook should be one).

Focus the scope of your response to align with learnings from chapters 6, 7 and 8 from the textbook, as well as other outside research. It is my expectation that you use the case methodology outlined in the Case Response Expectations folder in the Course Content. This methodology will help you to optimize your submission. YOU MUST have all 8 sections of a case:

Introduction

Analysis

Related Assumptions

Alternatives/Solutions

Evaluation

Recommendation

Implementation

Conclusion

I highly recommend you outline each section clearly in your case. I expect you to come up with the specific problem statement and provide that in the intro. I also expect you to provide at least 3 clear and reasonable alternatives/solutions to your problem in the alternatives/solutions section.

A business case approach is required, and not a traditional academic paper. Do NOT give the details and history. ONLY relate items regarding your recommendations for the future. This implies short, directed paragraphs, with a strong structure. Use many headings and topic sentences for every paragraph.

You should use at least 3 APA citations, matching references, and a cover page. APA format can be found in a number of web based help sites, including the SPC library page http://www.spcollege.edu/libraries/ or the Purdue Owl sitehttps://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ .
