In such a scenario:
Cash Cows Business Units will reach their profit
target easily. Their management have an easy job
as cash cows generate huge amount of cash.
Dogs Business Units are fighting an impossible
battle and investments are made now and then in
hopeless attempts to 'turn the business around‘.
As a result all Question Marks and Stars receive
only small investment funds. In this way they can
never become Cash Cows.
BCG model is helpful for managers to evaluate
balance in the firm’s current portfolio of Stars, Cash
Cows, Question Marks and Dogs.
