Abstract
The transportation volume is increasing rapidly with diversification of global industrial activities such as the procurement, production, and sales.
So the container shipping companies have to enlarge the fleet. Consequently the M & A and re-organizations of the Alliance become active. Therefore, in order to consider the management of container shipping companies, the analysis of acquisition etc. is necessary.
In this study, we clarify the relationship between change of a fleet by acquisition, and diversification of an income or a profit. And based on these relationships, we analyze about the means of the allocation of ship in acquisition of Maersk Line.
