...I was home alone, and I was bored because all of my friends were busy and I couldn't think of a single fun activity to do. It was a boring day, But there are so many fun things to experience on a boring day, so I decided to convert this bad day into a day of fun. I went for a walk with my nephew in New York city.

As we entered the cafe, we were welcomed by the respectful waiter. As I walked in, I had a fast look over the decorations and the furniture of the place, I was amazed by the clean and tidy tables. The place was crowded by people, all I was aiming for was to take a spot in the order queue. The atmosphere was amazing, especially the light blue walls and dark brown tables throughout the wide area. The sound of soft conversations filled the air with the smell of chocolate and coffee. After having a look at the menu, which offers a variety of hot and cold beverages. We were finally led by the smiley waiter to a free table for my nephew and me, after passing through the tight gaps which was crowded by filled chairs and tables.

...Business Ownership P1 Organisation 1 – NHS The NHS is a national public sector health service maintained and paid for by the UK. The NHS was founded in 1948 in an attempt by the then heath secretary, Aneurin Bevan, to bring good healthcare to all. It was founded to provide affordable healthcare to the citizens of the UK who need it. Today the NHS has a very good reputation as it continues to provide good healthcare to those in need, they currently employ over 1.6 million government people to achieve this endeavour. The NHS is a national business as it only operates in the UK and only provides its services to those living in the UK. It only operates in the tertiary sector as they provide a service for the public but do not manufacture, sell or harvest raw materials. Because it is a public business it doesn’t make a profit instead it uses it’s funding to help with the financial burden of medical procedures. There are down sides to this for example the NHS don’t always have the most up to date equipment. Because the service is maintained and paid for by the government they are the ones that will be held liable for any problems with the way the NHS runs or if it overspends. The NHS is limited by their annual budget for the year 2015 their budget was £115 Billion.

...forms Legal Forms of Business Paper Yaciel Toledo Law/531 June 3rd, 2011 University of Phoenix Legal Forms of Business Paper Selecting the best form of operating a business depends on the type of business the owner wants to run. The owners have to pick the structure that best meets their needs. “The selection depends on many factors, including the ease and cost of formation, the capital requirements of the business, the flexibility of management decisions, government restrictions, personal liability, tax considerations, and the like” (Henry Cheeseman, 210, p. 529) Moreover, choosing the right form to run a business will also determine how the business is organized, how the cash flow is, and how the business is taxed. “The most common forms of business organization are: sole proprietorship, general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability partnerships, limited liability company, and corporation” (Henry Cheeseman, 210, p. 529). According to the situation given, the best form is limited partnership. Limited partnership refers to the types of owners the business will have, general (managers) and limited partners (investors). In this sense, Monica, and Susan will be the managers of the businesses because they both will operate the business with their skills, Susan with her computer graphics skills and Monica with her marketing skills. Whereas Vic will be the investor providing some capital to run the business, she will not be part of management;...

...The Business Environment Unit 1/Assignment 1 Callum Whitehead Introduction In this assignment I am going to be describing the type, purpose and also ownership of two contrasting businesses. I will then look at stakeholders and look how they influence the businesses, look at how they are organised and explain how their style of the organisation helps to fulfil their purposes. Task 1 (Part A) My 2 contrasting organisations: 1. NHS 2. Microsoft Location – Explain different locations and give examples. Below are some types of locations within a business and how different they could become 1. Local: Local area/ Spilsby/ Spilsby theatre/ hair dressers/ local plumber. 2. Regional: Lincolnshire – based in this region, for example, swimming pools 3. National: UK, e.g. Morrison’s 4. International: only some businesses, for example, Tesco 5. Global: Most businesses, for example, McDonalds and Microsoft However, relating this to both of my contrasting organisations, NHS is more of a National Organisation as they are only working for people within the country as it is a government run Organisation. However, if I was to relate this to Microsoft then it would be different because Microsoft is a Global Organisation, they will produce their products to be sold to everyone. An example of this would be selling phones to people around the world and making money for the Organisation. This could lead to a rolling circuit. For example, if Microsoft was to...

...It is always difficult to terminate a business, especially after you have invested so much time, effort and money in the company. What makes it even more complex is going into business with others whom you expected to help the business succeed, yet it does not end up that way. For this case scenario, Chris and Pat Smith, and the two chefs, J. P. Martin and L. L. Miller, need to get together to make some tough decisions on potentially dissolving the business At Your Service.
