解説
問 3
Incorrectア
Outsourcing is a management practice of entrusting part of a company's own operations to an external specialist provider; it has nothing to do with the economic effect created by the spending of foreign visitors to Japan.
Incorrectイ
In outbound demand, “outbound” means a flow that goes from inside the country out to other countries, and it refers to the demand from spending that Japanese people do abroad, such as on overseas trips. Its direction is the opposite of the domestic demand created by foreign visitors to Japan.
Incorrectウ
An incubator is a scheme or organization that supports the growth of newly founded companies and startups through things such as space, funding, and management advice; it has nothing to do with the economic effect from tourism.
- エ
正解 The correct answer is “エ”, inbound demand. “Inbound” describes a flow that comes from outside the country into the country, and the economic effect created by foreign visitors to Japan spending on lodging, dining, shopping, and the like within Japan is called “inbound demand.” This matches exactly the question's description of “the economic effect that foreign visitors bring to the domestic economy.”
ここがポイント
- Inbound = a flow coming from outside the country into the country; outbound = a flow going from inside the country out to other countries. The consumer demand that foreign visitors bring into the country is “inbound demand.”
- Outsourcing (external delegation) and incubator (startup support) are terms related to management and business support, and should be distinguished as concepts separate from the economic effect of tourism.
