Inflation refers to a general increase in the prices of goods and services in an economy over time, which reduces the purchasing power of currency. While some inflation is necessary for economic growth, high or unpredictable inflation can be harmful. Negative effects of inflation include cost-push inflation which fuels a wage-price spiral, hoarding of goods, social unrest, and in extreme cases hyperinflation where a currency is abandoned. However, moderate and stable inflation provides benefits like allowing labor markets to adjust more quickly and giving central banks tools to stimulate the economy through interest rate changes.

This document from Mark Graham & Company outlines key factors for business success and avoiding failure. It discusses the importance of cash flow and controlling costs, as profits do not equal cash.

This document discusses Airtricity, an Irish renewable energy company founded in 1997 and sold in 2008 for over €2 billion. It provides electricity to 375,000 Irish customers and has projects across Europe and China, focusing on wind, hydro, and solar energy. The document proposes several innovative concepts for Airtricity, including allowing customers to invest deposits in renewable projects, donating a portion of bills to developing countries, offering electric car rentals, and empowering local renewable energy generation through partnerships. A focus group found the financial investment, philanthropic, and automotive concepts most promising.
The document proposes developing a pilot program to encourage more young people in Ireland to become social entrepreneurs. Interviews with community members informed the design of a program called RealPlay, which would enable Transition Year students to gain experience through mentored social enterprise projects in their local community. A key goal is for students to learn about social responsibility and potential careers through hands-on experience completing real-world tasks. The proposed program would match students' skills to project roles under the guidance of mentors from schools, community groups, and businesses. Students would develop initiatives like an activity program for an elder care center. Upon completion, students would receive a Young Social Entrepreneurs award to include in their CV and application for further education.

Business continuity planning involves 4 phases: risk analysis, plan development, testing plans, and ongoing review. It aims to minimize downtime from disruptions through identifying critical functions, assessing risks, analyzing impacts, and creating strategies for prevention, preparation, response and recovery. Testing plans regularly is important to ensure readiness. Without a plan, disruptions can lead to losses, failures, reputational damage and other issues. Quantifying the costs of downtime is crucial for justifying continuity investments and maintaining plans.

Kildare Artisan Netwok Funding application ken germaine may2013Brian Andrews
There are several sources of funding available for new business applications including personal investments, bank loans, credit unions, overdrafts, financing, grants, and friends/family. When applying for financing, you must demonstrate where the business needs to go, what extra resources are required and when, and how the investment will provide a return. Funding sources include local enterprise boards which provide grants and loans if the business is manufacturing/trade focused and approved in advance. Private investors like business angels may want a stake in the company and require it to be a limited company. Bank applications require thorough documentation like a business plan, financial statements, and credit check, as the application will be assessed centrally not by a local manager. Proper documentation
The document discusses the law of supply and demand. It states that as demand increases, price rises, attracting new suppliers who increase supply and bring prices back to normal levels. Supply and demand determines market prices through the interaction of supply and demand forces. The law of supply states that suppliers will provide more goods at higher prices to increase profits. The law of demand states that consumers will buy more goods at lower prices if other factors remain the same. Economic equilibrium is the point where quantity supplied equals quantity demanded, balancing market forces.
Scarcity refers to the fundamental economic problem of limited resources being unable to meet unlimited human wants and needs. It exists because society does not have enough productive resources to fulfill all human wants and needs. As a result, trade-offs must be made between pursuing one goal versus others. Goods and services that are scarce due to their limited availability are considered economic goods. Fruits like strawberries that are only available seasonally are an example of a scarce good, as demand sometimes exceeds supply, creating shortages.

The document discusses the law of supply, which states that producers will supply more of a product at a higher price than at a lower price. It increases as price increases and decreases as price decreases. Unlike the law of demand, the supply relationship shows an upward slope, meaning more is supplied at a higher price. Time is also a factor, as suppliers may accommodate temporary demand changes differently than permanent changes by adjusting production over the long run. A supply curve graphically shows the hypothetical supply available at different price points, usually sloping upward as higher prices incentivize supplying more.
