Conclusion
Kraft Heinz has remained a market leader in the online retail market. The company has successfully leveraged on technology and has built a business model that is centered around the comfort and needs of the customer. The strategy is ‘customer obsessed’ and not competitor focused (Byer, 2020). The company continues to reap huge benefits of economies of scale. It allows the company to offer lower product prices, which affects its bottom-line but still attracts new consumers. Despite lacking a clear product differentiation strategy from its competitors, the company has maintained its cost leadership position. Its products and services cost less than its competitors, but are always products that provide long-term gratification to its consumers. (Kotler,2020) The company has expanded rapidly and has allowed customers worldwide to enjoy its diverse products and services. Its corporate strategy which is consumer centric and diversified has leveraged the use of technology to reach millions of consumers worldwide. Its only major weakness is the inabilities to target the mobile commerce segment which would assist the organization maintain its current leadership. Its efficient and effective logistics strategy has made its platform the preferred retailer of choice for most consumers. (Longo, 2020). The timely and flexible deliveries give online shoppers an experience they cannot get in tradition retails stores.

Excel calculations
Current ratio is a liquidity ratio that measures whether a firm has enough resources to meet its short term obligations. A good current ratio lies between 1.5 and 3. A current ratio of less than 1 indicates that your business has liquidity problems and may not be financial healthy.
Current ratio= Current assets/current liabilities
=B35/B39
=2.541
Quick ratio
The Quick ratio or acid-test measures a company’s ability to meet its short term obligations with its most liquid assets
= (Cash+ cash equivalents +marketable securities+ A/C receivable)/Current Liabilities

=0.87065
The ideal quick ratio is 1:1 which indicates that the business has enough assets which may be immediately liquidated for paying off its current liabilities
Average Collection Period=Annual sales/365
It measures the average number of days that credit customers usually make the payment to the company .

Conclusion
Kraft Heinz has remained a market leader in the online retail market. The company has successfully leveraged on technology and has built a business model that is centered on the comfort and needs of the customer. The strategy is ‘customer obsessed’ and not competitor focused (Byer, 2020). The company continues to reap huge benefits of economies of scale. It allows the company to offer lower product prices, which affects its bottom-line but still attracts new consumers. Despite lacking a clear product differentiation strategy from its competitors, the company has maintained its cost leadership position. Its products and services cost less than its competitors, but are always products that provide long-term gratification to its consumers. (Kotler, 2020) The company has expanded rapidly and has allowed customers worldwide to enjoy its diverse products and services.

Excel calculations
Current ratio is a liquidity ratio that measures whether a firm has enough resources to meet its short term obligations. A good current ratio lies between 1.5 and 3. A current ratio of less than 1 indicates that your business has liquidity problems and may not be financial healthy.
Current ratio= Current assets/current liabilities
=B35/B39
=2.541
Quick ratio
The Quick ratio or acid-test measures a company’s ability to meet its short term obligations with its most liquid assets
= (Cash+ cash equivalents +marketable securities+ A/C receivable)/Current Liabilities
=(B16+B17+B19)/B39
=0.87065
The ideal quick ratio is 1:1 which indicates that the business has enough assets which may be immediately liquidated for paying off its current liabilities
Average Collection Period=Annual sales/365
It measures the average number of days that credit customers usually make the payment to the company .
