Your goal should be to extend each of these case facts towards an interesting
implication. Ask yourself, after each sentence, so what does this imply to the protagonist
and to CUNARD. The answer to the question, is the analytical extension I am alluding
to.
Case Analysis:The passenger in Cunard ship is well-educated, married and they would be in the top 5%
income for luxury and top 25% income for premium products. Price for 5-star segment is elastic,
as lower price would indicate lower quality, wealthier people would move away from the product.
When environmental issues are considered the segment is elastic as the external changes
would affect the choice of wealthy people to invest.
Cunard has a relative market share of 50% in the 5-star segment and the luxury segment
market is growing at a rate of 10%, hence it can be classified as Cash Cow and since the 4star market segment is saturated, there is no growth in this segment, this can be classified as a
Dog in accordance to the BCG matrix.
Alternatives:-
Even in the long run. Several consumer upgrade from 4-star to 5-star in due course of
time. Closing down one of the luxury segment will decrease that overall pie for you
Is broadening the base of 5-star a real issue? Or, is threat to the current utilization. You
should try help CLL as to how it can increase the utilization of its ship? Should it be
bothered about current utilization? ..tactical or strategic? If tactical, how to accomplish
without diluting the strategic objectives?
will keep up the good work and try incorporate some of the suggestions from me and the critique.
Looking forward to your improvements as you move ahead in the course.
