Patient X is a 52-year-old man who lives in Bowen Hills, Brisbane. He is an automotive repair man. However, he has recently lost his job and has stayed idle for one year. Recently, he was playing basketball with his eldest son and suddenly developed a substernal chest pressure. When he thought it was just a typical ‘heartburn’, he continued playing. After another 20 minutes, he had an intolerable sharp, nagging chest pain. His left arm became numb. His son verbalised that he looked pale and was sweating a lot. His son called the paramedics which accordingly arrived after 30 minutes and he was brought to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.…

Threat of new entrants is low, as the capital requirements and technology development needed to stay relevant in the market proves to be a daunting barrier to entry. Also, in order to realize a significant profit, economies of scale must be realized to produce a massive amount of batteries while keeping costs low. This would be harder for smaller entrants to achieve.…
The competitive landscape changed considerably after Gillette’s acquisition of Duracell in 1996. Prior to the purchase, Duracell’s competition was mainly from Energizer, who was the worldwide leader in dry cell batteries. The original Energizer held a market share of 36.6% in 1997, dropping to below 30% by the year 2000 with their operating revenues dropping as well.…

Figure 24. The average spending on batteries per battery buyer based on adults started with 49.44 in 2005 and has grown to 50.64 in 2008. The average spending for batteries per buyer stood almost the same during the period from 2005 to 2008, it was 10.6 in 2005 and felt down to 10.00 in 2008. The number of buyers of batteries started with 38.96 in 2005 and reached to 41.18 in the following year , kept falling down in 2007 (40.05) till reaching…
Early cordless (DC) drills used Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) batteries. NiCd batteries have a limited lifespan, self discharge and ultimately will internally short circuit due to dendrite growth. This poses a hazard when disposing of such NiCd batteries. It was for this reason and others that there was a move from NiCd batteries to Lithium ion batteries at the beginning of the 21st Century. The main advantage of using Lithium ion batteries is the dramatically shorter charging time and the longer lifespan. Lithium ion batteries also make the drill much more versatile because; unlike NiCd batteries, Lithium ion batteries have a constant discharge rate.…
