For this question, let's imagine some other factors that might not have been coordinated and combined well in a company that did not integrate its acquisitions effectively. A list of some potential elements that could be considered for integrating and finding synergies is shown below. Indicate the order in which you think the issues presented in the list should be considered by a company trying to reduce costs or improve operations from its acquired subsidiaries. Which do you think would have the greatest chance of being effective? You might think some are equally important, but put them in order as close as you can to the relative importance you would give them. Any order you present will earn points for this question. (In the next question, you will have a chance to explain your ranking.)
