  • General Motors: 1991 Equity Financing
    Darden Business Publishing Cases, 2017
    Co-Authors: Kenneth M. Eades
    Abstract:

    Bob O'Connell, CFO of General Motors, is considering a variety of equity alternatives to fund a large shortfall over the next couple of years. His tasks are to map out a financing strategy for the long term and to choose the equity instrument to be issued immediately. Of particular interest to O'Connell is a new security called PERCS (preferred equity redemption cumulative stock).

  • General Motors: Valuation of Class E Contingent Notes
    2008
    Co-Authors: Kenneth M. Eades, Anne L. Hinckley
    Abstract:

    As the maturity date for General Motors' Class E contingent notes approaches, GM's treasury staff must estimate the potential impact of the liability on corporate cash flows. The student is asked to value the contingent notes and express the value in terms of the cash flows GM might have to pay. The primary objective of the case is for students to draw the parallel between the determinants of value for exchange-traded options and for such nontraded options as contingent notes. A student worksheet file is available for use with this case.

  • identity work sustaining transnational collective action at General Motors europe
    Industrial Relations, 2012
    Co-Authors: Ian Greer, Marco Hauptmeier
    Abstract:

    What are the conditions under which transnational collective action is initiated and sustained? This article presents a case study of General Motors Europe, where labor leaders have mobilized the workforce and bargained with management at the transnational level repeatedly over more than a decade as a response to management whipsawing and threats of plant closures. In contrast to structuralist interest-based theories of union behavior, we identify a process of "identity work" that was necessary to sustain transnational worker cooperation.

  • INFORMATION AND COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE -- THE RISE OF General Motors
    The Journal of Law and Economics, 1997
    Co-Authors: Seth W. Norton
    Abstract:

    During the mid‐1920s Alfred P. Sloan instituted a number of innovations designed to provide the operating divisions at General Motors with more accurate and more timely information regarding final consumer demand. These innovations have not received much attention in attempts to explain General Motors' remarkable rise to dominance of the U.S. domestic automobile industry. The present article reviews these events and provides statistical tests affirming the success of these innovations at the same time as General Motors' increases in profitability and market share.
