A report is to be prepared on the prospects (risks, difficulties, benefits, potential) for doing business in Ethiopia. Assume that you as a "newly-crowned" BSBA have been hired and are assigned to prepare a company report which could be used to inform upper management about the nature of business activity in that country. Assume that the company does not now do business in that country. Thus, your report is to be a "first" document to inform upper management about what they might expect to find in the country under study. You may be rather free on your choice of a company. You may choose a current company with which you are familiar or a company with which you may wish to associate (have a job in the future). For whatever company you choose, prepare the report as if management is planning to manufacture the products or to provide the services in the country under consideration. Attach a letter of transmittal to me as if I am the CEO of the company. Also include an executive summary. Most reports generally result with a length of seven to ten (single-spaced) pages of text for the body of the paper. I have attached an sample paper below. The paper should match this format in terms of information presented. Feel free to focus on Phillip Morris International if it is easier, but all information must be backed by the work cited page. None of the information should be the same as the attached document, as this report will be on a different country.
