Preface Canadian entrepreneurs who saw an opportunity to provide a new product or service in the marketplace, and the activities they carried out in order to be successful. The third series--entitled "Managing in Turbulent nmes"-focuses student attention on both the disappointments and unexpected opportunities that arise during economic crises such as the one that occurred during the 2008-2009 recession. The fourth series--entitled " E-Commerce and Social Media"-describes how rapidly changing technology has provided business firms with many new ways to connect with customers, and how the new technology has given customers a level of control over businesses that they have not previously had.

Welcome to the sixth Canadian edition of Business Essentials. In this edition, we continue to emphasize our long-standing principle of "Doing the Basics Best.· Cutting-edge firsts, up-to-date issues that shape today's business world, and creative pedagogy help students build a solid foundation of business knowledge. This new, sixth edition continues with the strengths that made the first five editions so successful-comprehensiveness, accuracy, currency, and readability.

What's New to the Sixth Canadian Edition The Impact of one of the most significant events of the past 70 years-the financial crisis that began in 2008-is examined in depth in several different ch apters of the text. For example, the opening case in Chapter 16 explains the causes of the financial meltdown and its impact on banks, the stock market, sub-prime mortgages, and the economy and business in general. Chapter 16 also includes an end-of-chapter case describing the commercial paper crisis that hit Canada just prior to the more general financial crisis. The opening case of Chapter 15 describes the ups and downs of the world's stock markets during the last decade and explains how the financial crisis of 2008 led to dramatic declines in shareholder wealth. The impact of the financial crisis on business firms and on government involvement in the economy Is analyzed In Chapters 1 and 2, and In other chapters as well. The sixth Canadian edition of Business Essentials incorporates many of the changes suggested by professors and students who used the fifth edition. This new edition also Includes changes suggested by reviewers. The following changes have been made: •

The text contains four series of boxed inserts that are positioned at strategic points in the chapters so as to complement the main text. The first of these--entitled 'The Greening of Buslness"-analyzes what businesses are doing to be more environmentally friendly. These boxed inserts Identify both the opportunities and challenges that businesses are encountering as they try to be more socially responsible. The second series--entitled " Entrepreneurship and New Ventu res"-provides all new, real-life examples of



All of the chapter opening cases are either brand-new or updated. Opening chapter cases on Research In Motion, Toyota, Air Canada, Tim Hortons, lululemon, Parasuco, and others win be of great interest to students.



Two video cases appear at the end of each of the five major sections of the text. Nine of these ten video cases are new.



Many new examples of business practices have been included in each of the chapters. Some of these examples are brief and some are more detailed, but they all help students to better understand important business concepts.



Three appendices are newly placed at the end of relevant chapters in the text. The first appendixwhich focuses on Business Law-is included at the end of Chapter 1. This appendix includes key topics such as contracts, the concept of agency, warranties, and bankruptcy. The second appendix-on Information techno logy (IT)-is included at the end of Chapter 11. It focuses on the dramatic changes In information processing that are occurring in business firms and the need to manage these changes. We discuss the impact that IT has had on the business world, the IT resources businesses have at their disposal, the threats information technology poses for businesses, and the ways in which businesses protect themselves from these threats. The third appendixentitled " Managing Your Personal Finances" is found at the end of Chapter 16. This feature has been overwhelmingly requested by students and instructors, and presents a down-to-earth, handson approach that will help students manage their

The practical information found in this feature includes a worksheet for determining personal net worth, insightful examples demonstrating the time value of money, a method for determining how much money to invest now in order to build a future nest egg of a certain size, suggestions on how to manage credit card debt, guidelines for purchasing a house, and a personalized worksheet for setting financial goals. This information, which complements the managing of business finances material that is presented in Chapter 16, will be immensely useful to students. •

Important statistics have been updated to reflect the latest possible information on Canadian business.



The book has been completely redesigned to convey the excitement and importance of the modem business world. The book's new design and Improved art will also help students to better process and understand chapter content.



Large amounts of new material and new examples that demonstrate key conceptual points are found In this new edition of the text. Illustrative (but not exhaustive) examples include the following: Chapter 1-new material on topics such as privatization, deregulation, and nationalization; these ideas have been influenced by the recent financial crisis Chapter 2-new material on the political-legal environment of business, the BP oil spill, and acquisitions and mergers Chapter 3-new material on individual ethics, global warming, cap-and-trade systems, price fixing, counterfeit brands, insider trading, and misrepresentation off111ances Chapter 4-new material on small business incubators, entrepreneurship, and franchising C hapter 5-new material on the growing importance of emerging markets In the global business context; new material on the BRIC nations (Brazil, Russia, India, and China); new material on the financial crisis In the so-called PUGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, and Spain). Chapter 6-new material on the planning activities of McDonald's (indicating how these activities demonstrate the planning model presented in the text), prediction markets, human relations skills, the impact of environmental change on companies (for example, Ontario's pharmacy rule changes), contingency planning, crisis management (for example, Toyota, McCain, and BP), and corporate culture

Major Themes Six major themes continue to be evident in this new edition: change, International business, ethics and social responsibility, small business, information and communication technology, and the quality imperative. It is important that students understand these themes, since their careers in business will be signif icantly affected by them.

The Theme of Change The dramatic changes that have been occurring during the past decade continue apace, and these changes have been complicated by the financial crisis of 20082009. The development of new business processes, new products, and new services all make the study of change in business exciting and necessary. In nearly every aspect of business today there are totally new ways of doing things. These new Wffo/S are replacing traditional business practices, usually with surprising speed and often with better competitive results. Given these developments, we as authors felt that our goal had to be to communicate the theme of change by describing how real-world business firms cope with the need for change. Thus. we have tried to capture the flavour and convey the excitement of the "new economy" in all of its rapidly evolving practices. Prebtt

The Growth of International Business The globalization of business is one of the dominant challenges of the twenty-first century. To keep students aware of this challenge, we've Included many examples and cases that describe the experiences of Canadian companies in the global marketplace. We also describe how global companies have impacted the domestic Canadian market. In addition to these examples throughout the text, we devote an entire chapter to international business (Chapter 5, The Global Context of Business).

The Role of Ethics and Social Responsibility The topics of business ethics and social responsibility are generating a sharply increased level of discussion and debate as a result of the highly publicized criminal trials of top managers at companies like Llvent, Enron, and WorldCom, and because of the questionable financial practices that led to the economic crisis of 2008-2009. We devote an entire chapter to the discussion of ethical and social responsibility issues (Chapter 3, Conducting Business Ethically and Responsibly) because these issues are so important to modern business. Ethical issues are also raised in nearly every chapter of the text, and a team ethics exercise at the end of each chapter further focuses student attention on this Important Issue.

the 1990s. These topics continue to dominate the thinking of managers in the twenty-first century, and we devote a substantial part of one chapter to their coverage (Chapter 10, Operations Management, Productivity, and Quality).

Major Features of the Text Part Opener At. the beginning of each of the five major parts of the book is a brief outline introducing the material that will be discussed in that part. These outlines give students a glimpse of the "big picture" as they start reading about a new area of the business world.

Chapter Materials Each chapter contains several features that are designed to stimulate student interest in, and understanding of, the material being presented about business. These features are as follows: Chapter Learning Objectives A list of numbered learning objectives is presented at the beginning of each chapter. These objectives-which help students determine what is important in each chapter-are also referenced beside headings for the relevant content In the chapter.

The Significance of Small Business Since many students will not work for major corporations, we have provided coverage of both large and small companies throughout the text. In various chapters, the implications of various Ideas for small business are discussed. As wei~ a major part of Chapter 4 (Entrepreneurship, Small Business, and New Venture Creation) contains new material focusing on small business, entrepreneurship, and new business ventures.

The Importance of Information and Communication Technology In our information-based society, the people and organizations that learn how to obtain and use information will be the ones that succeed. The explosive growth and change in these systems is recognized as we Include a rewritten appendix on the management of information at the end of Chapter 11.

The Quality Imperative Quality and productivity became the keys to competitive success for many companies in the global marketplace during xvtll

Chapter-Opening Case Each chapter begins with a description of a situation that is faced by a real Canadian or international company. The subject matter of the opening case is relevant to the material presented in the chapter and is designed to help students bridge the gap between theory and practice. Boxed Inserts As noted above, four series of boxed inserts are found in the text. These boxed inserts provide interesting information on topics that are discussed in the text, and they help students understand the dynamics and complexities of the business wor1d. Critical thinking questions are found at the end of these boxes. These questions can be used as the basis for class discussions about the implications of the material that is presented in the boxed inserts. Examples In addition to the boxed inserts, each chapter contains numerous examples of how businesses operate so that students can gain a better understanding of the dynamics of business practice both in Canada and elsewhere.

from one sentence to several paragraphs--help students understand concepts that are introduced in the text. Key Terms In each chapter, the key terms that students should know are highlighted in the text and defined in the margin.

Business Case Each chapter concludes with a case study that focuses on a real Canadian or international company. These cases are designed to help students apply the chapter material to a real company that is currently in the news. At the end of each case, several questions guide students in their analysis.

End-of-Part Mat erial Figures and Tables Figures and tables are updated throughout the text.

End-of-Chapter Material Several important pedagogical features are found at the end of each chapter. These are designed to help students better understand the contents of the chapter. Summary of Learning Objectives The material in each chapter Is concisely summarized, using the learning objectives as the organizing scheme. This helps students understand the main points that WfJ/:e presented in the chapter. Questions and Exercises There are two types of questions here: "Questions for Analysis" (Which require students to think beyond simple factual recall and apply the concepts they have read about), and "Application Exercises" (which require students to visit local businesses or to Interview managers and gather additional Information that will help them understand how business firms operate). Tum Exercises Two team exercises are included at the end of each chapter. The "Building Your Business Skills" exercise allows students to examine in detail some specific aspect of business. The exercise may ask students to work individually or in a group to gather data about an interesting business issue, and then develop a group report or a class presentation based on the information that was gathered. Each exercise begins with a list of goals, a description of the situation, a step-by-step methodology for proceeding, and follow-up questions to help students focus their responses to the challenge. The "Exercising Your Ethics" exercises ask students to take on the role of an employee, owner, customer, or investor and then examine a chaptfJI:-related business ethics dilemma through the perspective of that role. By working together as a team, students decide which outcome is ultimately best in each situation, learn how to cooperate with each other. and see an ethical dilemma from various points of view.

Crafting a Business Plan This feature, which Is tailormade to match and reinforce book content, appears at the end of each major section of the text. The business plan project is software-independent and provides students with an easy-to-understand template that they work from as they create their business plan. Based on reviewfJ/: feedback, the business plan project has been divided into logical sections, with each part of the project at the end of each relevant main section of the text. With five parts in all, students can gradually apply the concepts they've learned in the chapters to their business plans throughout the course. You will find the templates for the Business Plan project online in MyBusinesslab. Video Cases At the end of each of the five major parts of the text, written summaries of two video cases are presented. The instructor can show the video in class, and then either conduct a class discussion using the questions at the end of the written case as a guide, or ask students to complete a written assignment that requires answering the questions at the end of the written case. This approach to teaching adds a positive dynamic to classes because students will be able to relate text material to actual Canadian business situations. The cases are also available through the MyBusinesslab tor Business Essentials, Sixth Canadian Edition.

From the Authors Ron Ebert, Ricky Griffin, Fred Starke, and George Dracopoulos Businesses today face constant change-change in their competitive landscape, change in their workforce, change in government regulations, change in the economy, change In technology, change i'l ... well, you get the idea As we began to plan this revision, we too recognized the need for change-changing demands from Instructors, changing needs and preferences of students, and changing views on what material to cover in this course and how to cover it. These have all affected how we planned and revised the book. This time, though, we took change to a whole new level. A new team of reviewers gave us great Ideas about the content changes we needed to make, and a new editorial team was assembled to guide and shape the creation and development of the book. The business world itself provided us with dozens of new examples, new challenges, new success stories, and new perspectives on what businesses must do to remain competitive. And a

new dedlcatlon to relevance guided our work from beginning to end. For example, we know that some business students will go to work for big companies. Others will work for small firms. Some will start their own business. Still others may join a family business. So we accepted the challenge of striving to make the book as relevant as possible for all students, regardless of their personal and career goals and objectives. We met this challenge by incorporating many new features i'l this edition (see the Preface for a list of these new features). We also carefully reviewed the existing book line by line. New material was added and older examples were updated or replaced with newer ones. We worked extra hard to make our writing as clear and as crisp as possible. We think that these changes will help make the material even more alive and personal for you. We believe that we have taken this book to a new, higher level of excellence. Its content Is stronger, its learning framework is better, its new design is more reader-friendly, and its support materials are the best on the market. We hope that you enjoy reading and learning from this book as much as we enjoyed creating it. And who knows? Perhaps one day we can tell your story of business success to other students.

So, How Will This Text Help You? The world today Is populated with a breathtaking array of businesses and business opportunities. Big and small businesses, established and new businesses, broadbased and niche businesses, successful and unsuccessful businesses, global and domestic businesses-regardless of where your future plans take you, we hope that you will look back on this course as one of your positive first steps. Keep In mind that what you get out of this course depends on at least three factors: •

One factor is this book and the information about business that you will acquire as a result of reading it.



Another factor Is your instructor. He or she is a dedicated professional who wants to help you grow and develop intellectually and academically.



The third factor is YOU. Learning is an active process that requires you to be a major participant. Simply memorizing the key terms and concepts in this book may help you achieve an acceptable course grade, but true learning requires that you read, study, discuss, question, review, experience, and evaluate as you go along.

Tests and homework are necessary, but we hope that you will finish this course with new knowledge and increased enthusiasm for the world of business. Your instructor will do his or her part to facilitate your learning. The rest, then, is up to you. We wish you success.

Individuals and businesses that were harmed by the spill. Incidents like these have created a dilemma for government policy makers; a 2009 study by the Conference Board of Canada showed that deregulation {In tandem with privatization and increased competition) caused a sharp increase in productivity in sectors like freight and airlines.1o

Despite becoming a territory of the communist People's Republic of China in 1997, Hong Kong remains one of the world's freest economies. In Hong Kong's Lan Kwal Fong district, for example, traditional Chinese businesses operate next door to well-known international chains.

The Rising Power of Emerging Markets: The Role of BRIC BRIC is the term that is often used in international trade magazines and newspapers to describe the increasing importance of four specific nations in global trade: Brazil, Russia, India, and China. The BRIC concept was first used by Goldman Sachs in 2001; since that time BRIC investment funds have become an Important group for money managers and International analysts. These four nations have even begun to act like a unit, and an unofficial BRIC meeting took place In 2009. The status of these four nations has risen In International trade for different reasons. Brazil is strong in commodities and agriculture, Russia Is a powerful energy supplier, and China is a major hub of manufacturing activity. India has become a leading service provider at various levels ranging from basic customer service call centres to engineering solutions providers. The growth and quick market development of the consumer market In these four nations is also providing tremendous sales opportunities for foreign companies In many industries, Including car manufacturing and highend clothing brands. o

The g rowth in international commerce has led to the emergence of several major marketplaces. Much of the international commerce in these marketplaces, in tum, is managed from major cities. Traditional centres of international commerce include New York, London, Paris, Brussels, and Tokyo. In recent years, though, cities like Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, Dubai, Vancouver, Bangalore, and Kuala Lumpur have taken on increased importance. For example, international business now defines the glittering skyline of Shanghai.

The old International trading patterns and activities are changing. Once upon a time, Western companies used less developed markets to acquire natural resources supplies and to carry out simple assembly tasks. But these four nations now demonstrate relationships that are much more complex. A clear signal of this shift was evident a couple of years ago, when Indian car maker Tala acquired

of network used in businesses is a client- ser ver network. In client-server networks, clients ars usually the laptop or desktop computers through which users make requests for information or resources. Servers ars the computers that provide the services shared by users. In big organizations, servers are usually assigned a specific task. For example, in a local university or college network, an application sarver storss the wordprocessing, spreadsheet, and other programs used by all computers connected to the network. A print server controls the printers, storss printing requests from client computers, and routes jobs as the printers become available. An email sarver handles all incoming and outgoing email. With a client-server system, users can share rssources and internet connections--and avoid costly duplication. Networks can be classified according to geographic scope and means of connection (either wired or wireless).

linked over long distances--province-wide or even nationwide--through telephone lines, microwave signals, or satellite communications make up what are called wide area networks (WANs). Firms can lease lines from communications vendors or mai'ltain privata WANs. Walmart, for example, depends heavily on a private sateUita natwork that links thousands of U.S. and international retail stores to its Bentonville, Arkansas, headquarters. Local Area Networks (LANs) In local area networks (LANs), computers are linked in a smaller area such as an office or a building. For example, a LAN unites hundreds of operators who enter call-in orders at TV's Home Shopping Network facility. The arrangement requires only one computer system with one database and one software system. Virtua l private networks (VPNs) connect two or more LANs through a public network like the Internet. This saves companies money because they don't have to pay for privata lines, but It is Important that strong security measures are in place so that unauthorized parsons can't gain access.

Wireless Networks Wireless networks use airborne electronic signals to link network computers and devices. Uka wired networks, wireless networks can reach across long distances or exist within a single building or small area. For example, the BlackBerry system shown in Figura B.2 consists of devices that send and receive transmissions on the w ireless w ide area networks (WWANs) of more than 100 service providers--such as Cellular One (United States), T-Mobile (United Kingdom and United States), and Vodafone (ltaly}-ln countries throughout the world.
