the project. It is body of knowledge which helps in analysing and conducting the research in a
effective and efficient manner.
Scope:- it is a utility of information gathered at the time research which is basically
known as scope. The scope of the research is wide because the data which has been collected at
the time of research is used in different areas. Scope of the research is useful on academic sector
because this data helps the students for gaining more knowledge and this research project is very
much helpful to other researcher in conducting in future on the same topic.
Cost:- Cost is one of the most essential part of the research without cost it is not possible
to conduct the research. Cost is mainly required for the data analysis and data collection.
Research is almost required for making the plan of expenses and income that involves in the
research. The cost which is required for the project is $2000 and cost involves each and every
activity for analysing and it has been decided according to the budget which has been prepared.
Time:- Time required for all the activities in the research project which is basically
planned before conducting this research. If the time is consumed is not analysed then it is much
more difficult for the scholar to complete the research on time. For that research researcher have
to make the schedule that how much time required for the research. Research will not complete
on time with the viability and reliability of the research if time is not properly managed.

Communication:- Communication is one of the main part of the research for interacting
and communicating with others. It plays an important role for gathering and collecting the data

which is on high degree because it is very important for the researcher to analyse and identify the
risk which has been occurred at the time of research and in the future. At the time of conducting
the research there are numbers of research factors has been occurred such as the physical injuries
to the researcher, loss of the data and also theft of data and equipments. The occurrence of the
risk may affect the research and outcomes so it is necessary to evaluate the occurrence of the risk
in research.
Resources:- There are so many resources which has been used at the time of conducting
the researches such as the equipments human resources, financial resources etc. when it comes to
carried out the data, it is necessary to identify the resources. The resources which is required for
the scholar is internet, laptops, stationery etc.

P5 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research approach
Research approach is type of process and plan for consisting the steps of broad
assumptions for the detailed method of the research. There are mainly two types of the research
approach such as the deductive and inductive research approach. Deductive research approach
mainly concerned with the building of the hypothesis which is based on the existing theories and
on the other hand the inductive research approach is the reasoning which begins with the theories
and observations which has been proposed at the time of research end. However, the rehearser
will use the inductive research approach for this research because it is applicable towards the
analytical analysis and study(Brown, and et.al., 2019).
Research design
It is a set of process and methods which is generally used in the analysing and collecting
the measure of variables that specified in the problem of research. Research design is basically
differentiated between two categories such as the experimental and descriptive. Experimental
research design establish the effect and cause of the relationship that is used in the statistical
tools and on the other hand the descriptive research design define the current statements of teh
phenomena and variables(Kumar, 2019). The researcher will use the descriptive research design
which is used in the research has been carried out through the tools and qualitative methods.
Research philosophy
Research philosophy is all about the beliefs about all the ways in that the data about the
phenomena which has been gathered, used and analysed. Research philosophy is basically

Interpretivism that integrates the human interest and also the position of the idealism that is used
for the group diverting approach with inclusion of the economic, social and ethical aspects.

researcher will use the random sampling method which is type of probability sampling method
where equal chance given to the entire population which has been selected and it helps in making
the qualitative research. In this researcher will collect the data of 20 multinational companies and
20 participants(Merriam and Tisdell, 2015.).
