Question
Which of the following would be FIRST the statement
after rearrangement? Directions: In the question given below, a set of sentences is given, which when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Arrange the sentences in the correct sequence, and answer the questions. P. Domestic market alliances are short-term and they focus on value appropriation. Q. Domestic market alliances are individual partner driven, usually prioritising on individual process efficiency, whereas in an International Market Alliances (IMA), priority is given to a systematic, standardised and collective process improvement. R. IMAs are long term and focus on value creation. S. Domestic market alliances offer an easy and immediate exit, whereas IMAs are difficult to exit keeping in mind several regulatory challenges and the potential negative impact on shareholder value after dissolution. T. Another key difference between domestic market alliances and IMAs is the ease of dissolution.Solution
The final arrangement is ‘QPRTS’. ‘Q’ informs that the subject of the paragraph is to discuss between the attributes of domestic market alliances and international market alliances. So, ‘Q’ is the first sentence of the paragraph. Among domestic market alliances and international market alliances, domestic market alliance is mentioned first. So, among ‘P’, which specifies an attribute of domestic market alliance, and ‘R’, which specifies an attribute of International market alliance, ‘P’ would come first, making it the second sentence of the paragraph, while ‘R’ would follow ‘P’, making it the third sentence of the paragraph. ‘T’ informs that there is another key difference between the two in terms of dissolution besides the differences discussed above, and ‘S’ specify the difference which is based on dissolution. So, ‘T’ would be the fourth sentence of the paragraph and ‘S’ would be the fifth sentence of the paragraph.
