TYPES OF ECONOMIC SYSTEMS
Economics is the study of how wealth is created and distributed
“who get what” It is all about making decisions on scarcity
of resources Micro (decisions made by households and
businesses)and macroeconomics (taxes, government spending, interest rates, and similar decisions on nations)
![Page 18: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
HOUSEHOLDS
Made up of individuals who are customers As resource owners, members of households
provide businesses with labor, capital, and other resources. In return, businesses pay wages, rent, dividends, and interest which households receive as income
Consumers buy products and services produced by businesses
70% of total products of the nation (US) is consumer products (purchase for personal consumption)
![Page 19: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Businesses retain their profits for future
growth, while households save their earnings
for savings

Local, state, and federal government discharge these responsibility through regulation and provision of service
Services are national defense, police and fire protection, education, roads, construction and highways
To produce these services, government collects a variety of taxes from households such as personal income tax and sales tax. From businesses, corporate income taxes are collected
![Page 21: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

CAPITALISM
![Page 25: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
CAPITALISM
Economic system in which individuals own (private sector) and operate majority of businesses that provide goods and services
Society’s interests are best served when the individuals within that society are allowed to pursue their own self-interest (invisible hand- Adam Smith)
![Page 26: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
ADAM SMITH’S BASIC ASSUMPTIONS OF CAPITALISM
Creation of wealth is a concern of private
individuals, not government
Private individuals must own resources used
to create wealth
Economic freedom ensure the existence of
competitive markets that allow both buyers
and sellers to enter and exist as they wish
(market economy)
![Page 27: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

COMMAND ECONOMIES
![Page 29: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
COMMAND ECONOMIES (SOCIALISM)
Government decides what, where, how, how many, and at what price to produce (sell) goods and services through centralized government planning system
Examples are North Korea, and Cuba
![Page 30: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
SOCIALISM (COMMAND ECONOMIES) Key industries are owned by government and these
industries are transportation, communication, utilities, banking, and steel
Private ownership of small business is allowed The focus of the socialism is the elimination of poverty
and equal distribution of wealth among the population Countries transitioning from socialism to capitalism
are France, Sweden, and India Disadvantages of socialism is increased taxation, loss
of incentives and motivation for both individuals and business owners (discuss motivation…….)
Today North Korea and Cuba are evident of being socialist countries
However, special talents and skills are given privileges (professionals and athletes)
![Page 31: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
ADAM SMITH AND KARL MARX
Adam Smith is the father of capitalism with a view point of free market (Scottish Philosopher 1723-1790)
Karl Marx is the father of socialism with a view point of classless society whose citizens equally own all the economic resources (German Philosopher 1818-1883)
Discuss classlessness
![Page 32: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

33
MEASURING ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE Productivity- average output per labor per hour (between
1979 and 2006 US growth is 3.9% - 2006 stats) Good and the bad of increased productivity of a nation-
Discuss…….. Gross Domestic Products (GDP) – total dollar value of all
the goods and services produced by all the people in a country with in a year. To make a comparison, the country need to adjust the dollar
value to inflation or deflation Inflation is a general increase in all the prices and a deflation is
general decrease in all the prices Consumer Price Index (CPI)- monthly measure of
changes in prices of fixed basket of goods purchased by a typical consumer in an urban area Goods listed in the CPI are food and beverages, transportation,
housing, clothing, medical care, recreation, education, and communication
Producer Price Index (PPI)- Prices at the whole sale level
![Page 34: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

BUSINESS CYCLE AS A MEASUREMENT
The regular fluctuations in businesses
![Page 35: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
ECONOMIC DEPRESSION
Longer than a recession
High unemployment rate
Low wages
Reduced purchasing power
Lack of confidence in economy
General decrease in business activities
![Page 36: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
WHAT DOES GOVERNMENT DO TO OFFSET THE EFFECTS OF RECESSION?
Monitory policy- federal reserve decisions that
determine the size of the supply of money on the
nation and the level of interest rates (stimulus plan)
Fiscal policy- the government could influence the
amount of savings and expenditure by altering the
tax structure and changing the level of government
spending
Federal deficit- government spending is greater
than its earnings which leads to national debt
![Page 37: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

TYPES OF COMPETITION
![Page 38: P ART 01-T HE E NVIRONMENT OF B USINESS C HAPTER -01 Dr. Gehan Shanmuganathan, (DBA) 1](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c01f1a28abf838cd18ad/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
TYPES OF COMPETITION Capitalism induces competition for the benefit of the
customer Perfect competition- where there are many
buyers and sellers for one product and they cannot affect the price of that product- market is symmetric, homogenous products, no one could control the market e.g- wheat Demand and supply/ equilibrium market or
price( graphical demonstration) Monopolistic competition- many sellers and
buyers in the market and the sellers differentiate their products/ services to increase their revenue
Oligopoly- few sellers. Eg- automobile, airline Monopoly – one seller. Eg- public utilities
