    Social Responsibility of Business and Points in Favour and

    Against of it>> NOVEMBER 4, 2009

    7 16Share38

    Meaning of Social Responsibility of Business

    Social responsibility is the duty of businessman to help the society to solve its major problems .

    Every enterprise is fully connected with society . He takes many things from society in the form of

    raw material ,

    work from employees and also pollute environment of society. After this , many social problems rise

    due to pollution . So businessman's prime duty is to support in the form of plantation near the area

    of factory providing free health facilities to employees and also donate some part of profit for welfare

    of poor community to uplift them . These days trends shows that almost all companies are taken

    steps for becoming responsible toward society .

    Arguments in favour of social responsibility :-

    1. To increase reputation of society :-

    Businessman sells the goods to the customers and customers are the social person .If businessman

    is responsible towards society , then he can increase his reputation in society . This is the one of

    most important argument that after providing good quality of goods at lower price and providing

    other free facilities to customers , business can grow his business.

    2. Business legal obligations :-

    Some law are made in India to reduce population . So businessman must follow these rules and

    regulations and after this he can save from government penalties . According to this argument

    businessman should come forward for doing social work. After this he can respect the law .

    3. More Public expectation from business :-

    In the modern time it may be argued that businessman should fulfil the expectation of public .

    Businessman gets raw material from very low cost and after producing he sells at very high cost . So

    it is the duty of businessman to share his some profit in the form of donation.

    4. Business has useful resource

    Many wise person from society gives argument that business has skill , experience and money

    resources and innovation mind . If these resources are used to solve social problem , then society

    can rich with in some year .

    5. Better Environment from business

    If a business gives good working condition to employee then it will provide better environment for

    business . How will it possible.

    Good facility in factory and provide high wages to labourer

    will reduce the absenteeism

    will reduce labourer turnover

    will reduce labourer crime.

    Argument against Social responsibility

    1. Cost of social work

    Business has already limited resource. So , if it is used in social work then business activity may slow

    and business's expenses will increase and it will affected business inversely.

    2. Businessman is not expert in social work :-

    Businessman is not expert in social work . Because he has not done MSW . Master of social work is

    higher qualification for doing social work and fulfilling social responsibility as social and moral agent .So , without perfect knowledge , business should not do any social activity but concentrate only on

    his business .

    3. Social responsibility is not legal responsibility :-

    Some businessman argue that social responsibility is not legal responsibility , no one pressure on

    business man to give donation under any law .

    4. International competition

    One of important argument is given by Indian businessman that they have to face international

    competition . After adopting some social responsibility , it will increase the prices of

    theirproduct and after competition our business will fail and foreign companies will win in

    competition.

    5. Ignore Business Aim :-

    It is the duty of Govt. to do that social activities and if a businessman ignore his business aim and

    start social activities , then after ignoring business aim businessman can succeed in business.

    Conclusion

    Main Elements or factors of Business Environment

    A Micro business Environment:

    This is also known as internal business environment because business has power to control them. In

    this environment, factors can be divided with following way.

    1st Supplier

    A supplier provides raw material to business. This is also main factor of business environment

    because, it affects business very closely. If supplier delay to supply raw material or stop to supply.

    At this time production of business can be stopped due to not getting raw material. So, for

    controlling this factor, it is the duty of businessman to make good relation with more than one

    supplier so that, if one stop or delay at this time, goods can be purchased from other supplier.

    2nd Customers

    Customers are those people or companies which buy goods from our business. Business sells them

    his finished product. But time to time tastes of customers also change. So, according to the taste of

    business customers, new products must be supplied by business. That is the formula for living long

    life of business.

    3rd Market Intermediaries

    For promoting sale, it is required to ads by different way, so market intermediaries include sales

    man and middle man.

    This environment is under control of business because, if business starts selling with more ads, his

    selling will surely increase.

    4th Competitors

    Competitors of business also create internal business environment. According to competitors,

    policies, business changes his policies for winning in competition.

    5th Financial Intermediaries

    As business grows, it needs more money for his growth; either this money can be gotten by issuing

    new shares or by borrowing money from financial intermediaries. So, financial intermediaries plays a

    vital role in business environment. If they provides loan at very low rate, at that time business can

    get and grow fastly but, if they increase in interest rate, at that time business will not get at this rate

    and its growth may decrease due to lack of fund.

    environment. Increasing trend of population will increase demand of products and support business

    to produce more products. But if death rate is increasing or demo graphic factor like religion are

    preventing to use the products of business. At that time business has to change their business or

    make other plans according to situation.

    >> NOVEMBER 2, 2009

    Aim

    Aim of this topic is to make expert the students and investors in financial analysis.

    Explanation :When a person starts his own work, then either he will get profit or loss and

    this is not sure and the possibility of this uncertainty is called risk. Loss is one of major risk

    of business and main motive of financial analysis is to reduce risk of loss. It is also

    general rule higher risk and higher return but modern concept is just opposite this , it is

    lower risk and higher profit. In financial market, Company issues and also invests in shares

    and companyMeasurement of Risk is with the help of financial mathematics and financial risk

    management. Company uses modern portfolio theory for getting maximum return on

    minimum risk.

    Reasons of Risk

    1. Some longer-term consequences of disasters

    2. such as lawsuits

    3. loss of market confidence and employee morale and impairment of brand names can

    take a long time to play out

    For this following procedure is adopted for making good Portfolios

    1. Calculation the value at Risk

    Risk of investment is measured on the basis of Standard deviation . It is variation of actual

    and standard performance on the investment .

    Prof. Razvan Pascalau, Univ. of Alabama has made simple online value at risk calculator

    which is very helpful for investors

    2. Calculation of portfolio

    After calculation of Risk , we can make portfolio by applying mathematical formula .

    Return is the weighted average of the risk free asset, f, and the risky portfolio, p, and is

    therefore linear:

    Since the asset is risk free, portfolio standard deviation is simply a function of the weight of

    the risky portfolio in the position. This relationship is linear

    IT is the area of managing technology and spans a wide variety of areas that

    includecomputer software,information systems,computer hardware,programming

    languagesbut are not limited to things such as processes, and data constructs. In short,

    anything that renders data, information or perceived knowledge in any visual format

    whatsoever, via any multimedia distribution mechanism, is considered part of the IT

    domain. IT provides businesses with four sets of core services to help execute the

    business strategy: business process automation, providing information, connecting with

    customers, and productivity tools.

    IT professionals perform a variety of functions that range from installing applicationsto

    designing complexcomputer networksand informationdatabases.A few of the duties that

    IT professionals perform may includedata management,networking, engineeringcomputer

    hardware,server management, database and software design, as well as management

    and administration of entire systems.

    In the recent past, theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technologyand

    theAssociation for Computing Machineryhave collaborated to form accreditation and

    curriculum standards[4]for degrees in Information Technology as a distinct field of study as

    compared[5]toComputer ScienceandInformation Systemstoday. SIGITE (Special Interest

    Group for IT Education)[6]is the ACM working group for defining these standards. The

    Worldwide IT services revenue totaled $763 billion in 2009.[7]

    [edit]Technological capacity and growth

    Hilbert and Lopez[8]identify the exponential pace of technological change (a kind

    ofMoore's law): machines application-specific capacity to compute information per capita

    has roughly doubled every 14 months between 1986-2007; the per capita capacity of the

    worlds general-purpose computers has doubled every 18 months during the same two

    decades; the global telecommunication capacity per capita doubled every 34 months; the

    worlds storage capacity per capita required roughly 40 months to double (every 3 years);

    and per capita broadcast information has doubled roughly every 12.3 years.[
