Export and Import Policies and Practices
Pricing in International Trade Discussion
1.Part 1:Export & Import Policies and Practices: Chapter 7: Pricing in International Trade
Question: The large influx of shrimp imports into the United States from Asia and Latin America depressed wholesale prices by more than 40 percent between 1997 and 2002. Despite such lower prices, shrimp entrees at some sea food restaurants in the United States rose by about 28 percent during the same period. Discuss why prices (shrimp prices at sea food restaurants) are not aligned with costs. 150 words
Part 2: Case 8.2: China National Products versus Apex: 1000 words
China National is a Beijing-based corporation organized under the laws of China with specific foreign trading rights. It facilitates the import and export of goods between Chinese and foreign companies. Apex is a company incorporated in Ontario, California and engaged in the import and distribution of consumer electronic goods. In 2000, China National entered into a purchase agreement with Apex for the export of DVD players. The purchase agreement was formalized with the conclusion of several but substantially identical written contracts for the different types of player. Each contract contained two significant provisions:
a.in the event of nonconformity of the goods with the contract, Apex should claim for quality discrepancy within thirty days after arrival of the goods at the port of destination,
b.all disputes arising from the contract shall be submitted to a certain arbitration tribunal specified in the contract and the award is final and binding on both parties.
Apex imported and sold the products to major retailers such as Circuit City, Best Buy, and K-Mart. Soon after distribution of the imported goods, Apex began receiving reports from its retailers that consumers were dissatisfied with the quality of the DVD players: disk loaders did not open; they did not load after a DVD was inserted; they did not recognize certain music files; the front panel of the loader fell off, etc. Some were returned. In spite of these problems, Apex continued to place more orders with China National. It did, however, express its concerns to China National. Apex declined to pay China National claiming “financial troubles” as well as China National’s refusal to correct the defects. In an effort to obtain payment, China National wrote several letters to Apex threatening legal action. It eventually filed suit in California.
The central issue to be decided by the court was whether Apex had rejected the goods or, if it had not, whether it would later be relieved of liability. The court stated that if buyers accept nonconforming goods and do nothing, the law deems them to have accepted those goods. Apex’s actions in continuing to order and sell known defective goods constituted an acceptance of those goods. Such conduct of ordering and selling defective goods was inconsistent with the seller’s ownership and acceptance. It ordered Apex to pay for all unpaid invoices. (Source: 141 F. Supp. 2nd 1013. 2001 U.S. Dist.)

Right after you conduct the interview, type up your notes. Organize the notes in the way that you think you might write the essay. Your notes can be a mixture of direct quotes and paraphrase (= you put your subject’s words into your own words). Be sure to use ” ” for direct quotes.
