In Britain, high school students can run a business! Each business runs for one year. When they start their business, they borrow money from parents and friends. At the end of the year, these people will receive some of the
profits
.
Running a business is not difficult for students. They always receive a lot of advice (建议) from teachers and business people. They always ask themselves four questions:
1. What do people want to buy?
2. Where is a good place to sell the product (产品) ?
3. How is our product better than other products?
4. What is the price of the product?
There are usually about five to seven students in each business. They sell things like books, T-shirts and computer games.
Some businesses make $20,000 -30,000, but most groups make a small profit about $1,000 -3,000. The students can do what they like with the profits.
However, some of them think that it is important to use the money in a good way, such as giving the money to charity(慈善机构).
Most students enjoy running a business and all the students think that they learn a lot.
