Participants run department stores that market perishable and durable products. Marketing can be done in both traditional commerce and e-commerce.<\/p>\n

The simulated companies are public corporations and therefore have shares listed on the fictitious Stock Exchange. The values of these actions vary according to the companies performance and are also influenced by the simulated macroeconomic situation, which, among other variables, are manipulated by the simulation coordinator.<\/p>\n

The retailing simulator encompasses the main functional areas of commercial companies, such as stock management (purchasing and maintenance), pricing, finance, and human resources.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”]

Demand considers factors such as price, term, advertising, seasonality of the period, growth of the economy, and the decisions of the other participants (competitors).<\/p>\n

Financial management includes loans, financing, investment of resources, factoring, corporate recovery, and bankruptcy. Employees, in turn, can have their productivity modified by factors such as training, salary level, profit-sharing policies, sales commissions, overtime, among others.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

\n\t\t\t\t
Customizable Scenarios\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
The simulation coordinator draws the economic scenario of each round, controlling several variables to define the level of complexity of the game. Therefore, each company game is unique, and the scenarios are numerous.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
Taking of Assets\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
Bank loans and financing are collateralized, i.e., if the company fails to pay them for rounds, the bank will take assets (buildings, facilities, and land) to clear debts in arrears.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
DSS and Investment Funds Modules\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
It is possible to expand the possibilities of the company game and use more simulator resources. The Decision Support System (DSS) is a tool to assist participants during the decision-making process. The Investment Funds Simulator, as its name implies, simulates the management of investment funds.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″]

\n\t\t\t\t
Charts\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
Users visualize and analyze the results of managerial simulation using macroeconomic and corporate charts. Indicators of the market, economy, and companies and their performance are presented.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
Merger of Companies\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
The merger is the union of companies to form a new one, which will succeed them in all rights and obligations. In the simulation, the merger is treated in a simplified way, with the corporate adjustments being made through the exchange of shares between the companies involved.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
E-commerce\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
<\/p>\n

The market is formed by traditional (face-to-face) and electronic (Internet) commerce. Macroeconomic factors define the share of e-commerce in the total market without the company’s influence. Already the demand of each company in the EC is affected by the price, term, and advertising adopted, and consumer satisfaction.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t
Reports\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
The financial, market, operational, macroeconomic, and cost reports are available in the simulator. The information contained in them is essential and is used as the basis for the companies\u2019 decision-making.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
Corporate Recovery and Bankruptcy\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
Judicial recovery is a procedure for renegotiating debts to avoid a possible bankruptcy filing. This procedure can be requested when the company has delays and must be negotiated with the coordinator.<\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>
\n\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
Perishable and Durable Products\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>
<\/p>\n

Companies can market perishable and durable products. Each product has its characteristics concerning its type, seasonality, and variations in demand in the function of price, advertising, and payment term.<\/p>\n
