Summary Finance and AccountingChapter 1: Businesses and their role in the economy
• Business = a profit-based production organisation
- Production = transformation of production resources into end products
- Organisation = collaboration of participants
- Profit = sales revenues > costs of resources
• Economics: is concerned with the consumer - manufacturer relationships
• Micro economics: seeks to analyse market forms
• Macro economics: is concerned with economic problems that affects society as a whole
(such as inflation and unemployment)
• Financial management: is concerned with economic activities within a production
organisation
• Production process:
- The supplier market delivers raw materials, fixed assets and labor —> production
process —> end products, being sold by the retail market
- The retail market sells the end products, and invests the money made back into
the supplier market.
• Stakeholders:
- Owners(s)
- Employees
- Suppliers
- Clients
- Government (tax authority!)
• The level of profit depends on:
• Efficiency: relates to the cost-effectiveness of the production process
• Effectiveness: to meeting the target objectives of the production process (end product
meets the customer requirements)
INPUT —> (transformation process) —> OUTPUT —> (target realisation)
I______________ Efficiency ______________I I_______Effectiveness____I
—> unit cost —> sales revenue
• Profit (difference between revenues and expenditures)
- A necessity
- Can lead to too much emphasis on the short term
• Continuity (ability to stay in the long term)

—> Profit is however needed for continuity: only with profit a company will have the
required financial resources to survive independently

, • Business activities, classified based on the nature of the transformation process:
- Agriculture and mining: with a small quantity of commodities, a large quantity of end
product is achieved. Assets are important to this sector.
- Industry (manufacturing):
- Job production: customised, made for one specific customer, made to order
- Mass production: standardised, made for the market, made for stock
- Batch production: every customer gets an individual product, but costs are saved
by producing the components in larger quantities.
- Trade: no transformation process, but existence is derived from the imbalance between
production and consumption.
- Retail trade: supplies directly to the end user
- Wholesale trade: purchases from manufacturer and redistributes good among
retail trade.
- Services: no process of manufacturing or redistributing products. No/hardly any raw
material is needed. Tangible assets are needed, but most of the costs are based on labor.
• Legal form/entity = a company or organisation that has legal rights and responsibilities.
Aspects of the choice of a legal form:
- Management and ownership
- Financing possibilities
- Continuity: how can the company continue in the case of a change?
