BUSINESS & COMMERCE - Full Year

L1COM
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mr J. Warren.

In this course students will learn about how businesses use resources to produce goods and services. The course covers aspects of Accounting, Economics, and Business Studies, and is designed to give students a small taste of each of these subjects. 

Students will examine case studies as well as real life businesses in order to understand how businesses operate. They will use this knowledge to develop their own product idea, finding out how much it would cost to make, who might want to buy it, what price to charge, and how they would promote and sell it. Students could then develop this product idea further in Year 12 by actually making a physical product to sell.
