THE ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
The economy comprises millions of people and thousands of firms as well as the government and local authorities, all taking decisions about prices and wages, what to buy, sell, produce, export, import and many other matters. All these organizations and their decisions play a prominent part when we shape the business environment in which firms exist and operate.
The economy is complicated and difficult to control and predict, but it is certainly important to all businesses. You should be aware that there are times when businesses and individuals have plenty of funds to spend and there are times when they must cut back on their expenditures. This has enormous implications for business as a whole.
When the economy is enjoying a boom, firms experience high sales and general prosperity. At such times, unemployment is low and many firms will be investing funds in order to produce more. They do this because consumers have plenty of money and firms expect high sales. It naturally follows that the state of the economy is a major factor in the success of firms.
However, during periods when people have less to spend, many firms face hard times as their sales fall. At that time, total expenditure declines as income falls and unemployment rises. Consumers will purchase cheaper items and cut expenditure on luxury items such as televisions and cars.
Changes in the state of the economy affect all types of business, though the extent to which they are affected varies. In the recession of the early 1990s the high street banks suffered badly. Profits declined and, in some cases, losses were incurred. No individual firm has the ability to control this aspect of its environment.
Questions:
1. What does the economy comprise?
2. What is a boom in the economy? What characterizes the state of the economy at that time?
3. What happens when the economy moves into a recession?
