31、 returns. Have you ever wanted to invest, but didnt know where to get started? Were here today to present you with three basic guidelines to smart investing for your future. We hope it will be helpful to you. First of all you should have clear goals. It is quite necessary for you to decide how many

32、years you will invest for, and what your needs will be in the future. The first step is very important and we may call it strategic planning. Once youve made the plan, you come to the second step.

33、h a mix of stocks, mutual funds, bonds, and cash. Its a jungle out there and very complicated. Each of these products has different risks associated .with them and also different potential rewards. You should understand them before you buy, and then there wont be any big surprises later. We may call

34、 this step a learning one and you have to spend much time on it and make great efforts to study all these things before you understand them well. This is the hard part but quite worth doing. The last.point is to have realistic expectations. As our friend Leonardo da Vinci said in the year 1500: “He

35、who wishes to be rich in a day will be hanged in a year.“ Over the past several years, New York stocks have averaged 30% annual returns, but dont count on this continuing.

Peter, youre in charge of credit control. What do you suggest? FC: Well, Ive been looking at our payment terms in other words

39、how long we have to wait for payment - we must reduce the average delay in payment. Its nearly 45 days now from the date we send out the invoice. Weve got to get it down to near 30 days. Its not easy. The Sales people always argue it is better to wait for payment rather than lose a customer, but I t

40、hink we can tighten up on reminders, statements and so on. MD: What about our payments to suppliers? FC: Well, thats more difficult. We are a small firm dealing with large suppliers. They dont have to help us. Still, maybe one or two of our older suppliers could give us better payment terms. MD: Rig

41、ht, lets look at some more general cost-cutting measures we can take. Im interested in support services such as training and personnel development. PM: Look, I must say something here. We simply mustnt cut these services. They are our long-term investment in people. MD: Maybe, but weve got to reduce

42、 costs somehow. We cant cut in the production area. I. PM: True, but our training budget is already very limited. Most of the training programmes are long-term. MD: Im not saying we have to stop any existing programmes, but perhaps we should look carefully at future training courses. PM: Well, I can

43、 let you have details of what we plan. I think youll see that they are all worthwhile investments. MD: Im sure. Anyway, let me have the programme and well discuss it later. Well have to stop now. Ive got another meeting at 2. PM: I must go too. Ive got a meeting straight away. 23 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 Sop
