1. Consider an example of a company and assume relevant figures required for the computation of SFG rate. Apply the tools of speeding cash flow, cost reduction and price increase to find out their implications on SFG rate. If all the three strategies are applied together, what would be the implication on growth? Justify.

2. Consider an example of a merger as a strategy of growth. Analyse the outcome of a merger for three to four years after it took place. Evaluate the success or failure of a merger by identifying concrete reasons. What do you think could have been done differently to ensure better results?
