LU 9-705-449REV: FEBRUARY 7, 2006 MIKO?AJ JAN PISKORSKI Note on Corporate Strategy The course has so far focused on freestanding businesses competing in a single-product market. We have examined the choices that these businesses make in order to increase customers’ willingness to pay without incurring a commensurate increase in opportunity cost. A given business’s choices amount to a competitive strategy, which determines its ability to generate and capture rents. Large corporations, however, tend to be composed of multiple business units competing in different markets. Take, for example, National Paper, a corporation comprising four business units: Lumber, Paper, Cardboard, and Tissue. The corporation is schematically illustrated in Figure A, where four solid dots represent business units owned by National Paper and the dotted oval represents the boundary of the firm. The arrows inside the oval indicate flows of outputs among units.
