HISTORY
Ballooning�labor costs�(the company had never had an
official�United Auto Workers�[UAW] strike and Studebaker workers
and�retirees�were among the highest paid in the industry),�quality
control�issues, and the new-car sales war between�Ford�and�General
Motors�in the early 1950s wrought havoc on Studebaker's�balance
sheet.�Professional�financial�managers stressed short-term earnings
rather than long-term vision. There was enough momentum to keep
going for another ten years, but stiff competition
and�price-cutting by the�Big Three�doomed the enterprise.
From 1950, Studebaker declined rapidly and, by 1954, was losing
money. It negotiated a strategic takeover by�Packard, a smaller but
less financially troubled�car manufacturer. However, the cash
position was worse than it had led Packard to believe and, by 1956,
the company (renamed�Studebaker-Packard Corporation�and under the
guidance of CEO�James J. Nance) was nearly�bankrupt, though it
continued to make and market both Studebaker and Packard cars until
1958. �SOURCE: �WIKIPEDIA
