填空题ProfitEntrepreneurship is directly responsible for production The business person (entrepreneur) takes a cue from consumers in deciding what they want—or, in the case of a new product (8) Profit means different things to different people. According to some public opinion polls, many people are not sure what it is, but they are sure (9) Workers may look at profit as an unfairly large payment to the entrepreneur that deprives them of a higher wage. The business person thinks of profit (10) During negotiations before the settlement of the second baseball strike in August, 1985, the Players' Association claimed the owners had made profits of $ 91 million, an accounting firm said owner profits were $ 43 mil- lion, and the owners insisted they had lost $ 9 million. The truth was that all three were correct. The disparity in the figures was due to the fact that each group was defining profit differently. Let us now see if we can develop a more exact definition of what profit is.Gross profit is the difference between what a business firm sells its product for end what it costs to produce that product. The merchant buys $200,000 worth of merchandise during the year and sells it for $270,000. His gross profit is $ 70,000. The percentage difference between his cost and the selling price is 35 percent, and he calls this markup. Net profit is (11) —rent, wages, and interest—and setting aside money to allow for the loss due to depreciation (wearing out) of capital. Our merchant has to subtract from his gross profit his payments for rent ($ 6,0O0), wages ($ 20,000), interest on money borrowed ($1,000), repairs and upkeep ($1,000), taxes ($1,000), electricity and other expenses $1,000. Expenses for operating the business come to $ 30,000. Gross profit is $ 70, 000, and net profit is $40,000.Economists have a narrower definition of what constitutes profit. They are concerned with payment for all the resources that have gone into production (12) , like those listed above, or from inside the business.A what profit really meansB it is too large and represents too much of the consumer's dollarC as the difference between total revenue and total costD what the business person has left after paying expensesE what they might wantF productionG whether they come from outside the business

A new study suggests that, in response, employers need to consider how they can help staff develop their careers. Employers need to rethink their approach to career management completely, according to the latest research by the Institute of Employment Studies. The new study finds that in fact there is little opportunity for individual career development in many large organizations. The main reasons for this, it concludes, are the recent cuts in the number of middle-management posts, and the changes that have taken place in the responsibilities of personnel departments. The Institute of Employment Studies makes it clear that it is not good practice for companies to hand over career development-to individual employees and then simply leave them to get on with it. {{U}}(8) {{/U}} So how should employers help their staff develop a career? Most employees have come to accept that career development is not always the same thing as upward promotion and a higher salary. {{U}}(9) {{/U}}They must also ensure that these opportunities are extended to all their staff and not just to selected individuals. Nick Bridges, who is Director of Human Resources Policy at the Bank of Eastern England, believes there is more talk than action in this area. {{U}}(10) {{/U}}One way, he believes, for companies to show how serious they are about individual learning is lo make it an official part of company practice, as the Bank of Eastern England has done. {{U}}(11) {{/U}}This document, he points out, has made the role of managers clear, and the company has also invested huge amounts of money educating managers so that they can then train their staff. Another company, British Chemicals. has contracted an independent organization to help staff with confidential career advice. According to John rates, the head of Individual Learning and Development at British Chemicals. there is an important role for outside agencies to play in the career management process. He adds that it is company policy for managers to give all staff 'roadmaps' which show possible career routes within the company structure. {{U}}(12) {{/U}}This has worked especially well. he says, for staff who are used to depending on their line managers for guidance. Many large organizations now recognize that career development cannot be regarded in isolation, and must be part of an overall business strategy. Human Resources has a real role to play in building a strong workforce which meets a company's long-term business needs and makes it more competitive.A. Its policy statement says that by 2006, eighty percent of its stall' will have a professional qualification.B. He argues that while Human Resources managers are saying the way forward is through self-managed learning and self-development, they are still failing to provide adequate learning resources.C. This change of attitude means employers need to place more emphasis on giving staff the chance to develop a range of skills through horizontal job moves.D. It points out that employees need to know what the overall company's vision is in order to achieve it.E. The problem that often arises is that, while they are increasingly encouraged to manage their own careers, they arc not provided with the knowledge and training to do this.F. They are able to sec that, contrary to expectations, jobs in different fields are similar, and they can also sec how it is possible to cross over to other areas.G. The main reasons for this, it concludes, are the recent cuts in the number of middle-management posts, and the changes that have taken place in the responsibilities of personnel departments.

There are an enormous number of traps awaiting the inexperienced seller. Before giving out any information about the business to any potential purchaser, make sure they have signed a confidentiality undertaking - that is, a document promising not to make confidential information public. You do not want a potential buyer using this confidential information either in the course of negotiations or after negotiatiations have broken down. Many confidentiality letters, however, have no legal value, so taking appropriate advice is recommended.You should also consider your strategy for informing your staff of the proposed sale. Most business owners want to keep the sale secret from their employees until the deal has been completed - or at least until negotiations are fairly advanced. {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}In addition, you will need to produce a considerable amount of information about the business and its running; for this you will require the cooperation of senior management, who will therefore need to be informed of the sale. When corresponding with a potential purchaser mark everything 'Subject to Contract'. Contracts can be made accidentally and you do not want to be committed until a formal contract, including all of the relevant terms, has been negotiated and signed. To avoid this, many people negotiate a summary document which briefly sets out the main conditions of the sale. These documents can be useful because potential areas of dispute or disagreement can be seen in advance. {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}Do remember, however, that a summary rarely deals with all the points for discussion which are going to arise in the course of negotiations.Make sure all your paperwork is in order. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}It is vital therefore that you ensure all insurance policies, bank statements, finance documents, and employment, supplier and customer contracts are well ordered and up to date. This will save everyone a lot of time.In addition, make sure that all staff have up-to-date contracts of employment. An employer must, by law, issue statements of terms of employment to all employees within two months of their starting work. {{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}Even if you fail to issue them the buyer will still expect you to be able to identify with certainty what the terms and conditions are. The absence of written contracts makes that much more difficult.You may also need the approval of people entirely external to the business for the sale to take place. {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}Getting such agreement generally takes time, so you will need to move quickly if a buyer wants it done before completing the deal.A. These protect both the employer and the employee, and mean that there is certainty about those terms and conditions.B. This is the extent to which you can profit from the investment you have made in your business.C. A buyer will want to see vast quantities of information and documentation on the business.D. The most frequent example of this is when significant pieces of machinery and equipment are subject to financing arrangements, and the consent of the financier is necessary.E. They should be short and simple, and full agreement should be negotiated with the buyer as soon as possible.F. This can be difficult, though, and if staff find out about the sale it can unsettle them.G. You do not want a potential buyer using this confidential information either in the course of negotiations or after negotiations have broken down.

The second was held in 1994 at Bogor in lndonesia. It adopted a declaration to abolish tariffs between all its members by the year 2020. APEC' s developed economies would, however, follow an earlier schedule of freeing trade by 2010. The third summit at Osake (Japan) in November was to stock of the progress towards the free trade goal.APEC' s progress is even greater considering that until the first Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting of 12 regional foreign and economic ministers in Australia, it was simply a laudable idea.{{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}Ever since that fateful Canberra conference in November 1989, APEC has never looked back. The original 12-member forum has 18 members: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Guinea, the Philip-pines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and the United States. The rush to join the APEC club is so great that it had to impose a three-year moratorium on new membership till 1996.{{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}When Australia first mooted the proposal to convene a conference for regional cooperation, there was considerable misgiving and scepticism about it. Most ASEAN countries (Association of South East Asian Nations)--Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysin, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand (Vietnam was not a member of them)--were not particularly enthusiastic.{{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}Indonesia's Foreign Minister, Ah Alatas, simply wanted any Pacific organization to be an extension of ASEAN. Indonesia's hosting of the APEC surnmit last year, where President Soeharto played a leading role in putting together the free trade declaration, would suggest that Jakarta's earlier misgivings have disappeared.{{U}} {{U}} 4 {{/U}} {{/U}}In the lead-up to the Osaka summit, the report card on the free trade agenda (gleaned from the meetings of officials from member countries) did not seem terribly good. The United States, which seeks expanded access (and at a quicker pace) to regional markets, was unhappy with the slowness of Japan to advance the free trade agenda. Japan was the country chairing APEC for 1995. According to MS Sandra Kristoff, the US State Department's Coordinator for APEC, Japan had "to go out there and create a consensus [on free trade], lead a consensus, make this happen ... The United States doubted Japan's free trade credentials and felt that its heart was not in the APEC pledge. Tokyo has wanted a free trade agenda to develop on a voluntary basis.{{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}…………However, because of America's growing preoccupation in the months ahead with presidential elections, the Clinton administration's impatience and consequent negative rhetoric need not be taken at its face value. Washington cannot afford to ignore or opt out of APEC, with the USA having about ＄400 billion annual trade with the region.A The second summit was held in 1994 at Bogor in Indonesia.B It was felt that a pan-Pacific organization would dwarf 12 ASEAN, which might then lose its reason for being discussed and even its existence.C But, it was an idea whose time had come.D It would, however, be naive to suggest that APEC will be all smooth sailing.E This in itself is a proof of the considerable headway APEC has made in a short period of about six years.F It needs emphasizing that all APEC members are in favour of regional free trade but all de not favour set time-schedules and their enforcement.G Washington has not been happy with this approach.
