Group {BCG} created a chart for the corporation

brands} on the basis of their relative market
share and industry growth rate.

consulting group of USA and popularly known as BCG
Matrix takes a two dimensional views.
I. Industry growth rate.
II. Relative market share.
According to this technique business or product are
classified as low or high performers depending upon
their market growth rate and relative market share.
BCG Growth - Share Matrix
Relative market share and market
growth
Market share

unit sales to the total market that is being
services by your company measured either in
revenue terms or unit volume terms. In indicate
the business unit strength
MS= Business Unit Sales This Year

sales to the highest competitors sales

unit volume terms it indicate the
business unit strength
• RMS= (business unit sale this year)
leading competitor sales this year
RMS= Relative Market Share
Market Growth Rate
• Market growth is used as a measure
of a market’s attractiveness
• Market experiencing high growth
are ones where the total market
share available is expanding and
threes plenty of opportunity for
everyone to make money.
MGR= (total market sales this year) – (total market sales this year)
total market sales last year
It is portfolio planning model which is based on
the observation that company’s business unit
can be classified in to four categories .
• Question Marks
• Stars
• Cash cows
• Dogs
It is based on the combination of market
growth & market share relative to the next
based competitor.
Stares
• High Growth, High Market Share stares are leaders in business
by having heavy high market share in a growing market share
they also require heavy investment to maintain its large market
share
its leads to large amount of cash
consumption and cash generations
Question Marks
• High Growth, Low Market Share
• Question marks are essentially new products
where buyers have yet to discover them. Most
businesses start of as question marks in growing
markets but have low market share
• Question marks have high demand and low
returns due to low market share. Investment
should be high for question marks
• They will absorb great amounts of cash if the
market share remains unchanged
• Question marks have potential to become stares
and eventually cash cow but can become also a
dog
Cash Cow
• Low growth, High Market Share
• They are foundations of the company
and often the stares of yesterday.
• They generate more cash then required.
• They extract the profit by investing as
littlie cash as possible
• They are located in an industry that is
mature, not growing or declining
Dogs
• Low Growth, Low Market Share
• Dogs are the cash trap
• Dogs do not have potential to bring
in much cash
• Number of dogs in the company
should be minimized
• Business is situated at declining
stage

opportunity open to you, & help you think
about how you can make the most of
them.
• It is used to identify how corporate cash
resources can best be used to maximize
company’s future growth & profitability.
Limitation
• BCG matrix uses only two dimensions relative
market share & market growth rate.
• Problem of getting data on market share &
market growth
• High market share does not mean profits all
time.
• Business with market share can be profitable
too.
Conclusion
• Though BCG Matrix has its limitations it is one of the
