Oligopolists
.... of recommendations of National Competition policies.
In 1995, the Trade Practises Act (T.P.A.) was introduced. The T.P.A.
sets out the general responsibilities of sellers, such as the firms of
oligopolies, and out laws actions that may be unfair to the consumers. This
includes misleading advertising, market sharing and collusion.
Collusion is where the firms of an industry meet a set, common price, or agree
not to come into each other in the market area. These two above practises are
ways of government intervention that regulate the conduct of oligopolies.

Department. As late as July 1995 when Ernst & Young performed the Finance
Function Review (which included the Information Services Division), they echoed

Penguin Books: Introduction To Modern Business

the mass-market children's list were introduced.
Internal change that took place during that year was the closing down of
the Penguin Bookshops (that expanded to include 12 shops during the last decade),
leaving just one, the specialist Beatrix Potter "House of the Tailer of
Gloucester", within the Group. This change took place due to the fact that the
Company was conscious that it had to concentrate on the publishing rather than
on the retail.
This decision brought a successful completion of a management buy-out of
the shops. This action also compensated the loss that the Company faced in
august 1991, when .....

People Or Profits?
.... decision,
because of business. Business has moved to the heart of health care, a place
once relatively cushioned from the pursuit of profit that drives the rest of the
U.S. economy. Throughout the history of the United States, medical institutions
have largely been non-profit establishments existing primarily to serve the
community. But during the past 20 years, the number of for-profit health care
facilities has grown at an exceeding rate.
I think that a society as wealthy as ours has a moral obligation to meet the
basic needs of all of its members. I believe that every American, rich or poor,
should have access to the heal .....

Poverty Vs. The Economy
.... of the economy food plan. For smaller families and persons living
alone, the cost of the economy food plan was multiplied by higher factors in
order to compensate for the larger fixed expenses of smaller households. The
poverty thresholds are updated every year to reflect changes in the consumer
price index but overall rises in standard of living. (levington, page 147)
Another issue is that the poverty index has several flaws. First, it
does not allow for regional variations in the cost of living or for higher costs
in the central city areas, where many of the poor are concentrated. Second, the
flood costs for the b .....

Rapid Economic Growth In East Asian Countries
.... faster it has been able to do so.
Another important factor is the degree to which a country is behind the
industrial leaders. In the case of the East Asian countries, South Korea and
Taiwan, both started out with an extremely low income per head. This allowed
much faster growth when copying the leaders. It is important to realize that
these growth rates should slow as the countries catch up.
An area in which East Asia is investing much of its GDP is in physical
capital and education. Compared to the industrial leaders, the East Asian
countries have sustained a much higher investment in these areas. South Korea
invests 35% .....
