Hey ..
I Lost my business book's Index and it is new book .. now i cannot find about the Labour Intensive and captial intensive >> can you please check your books under which Chapter name does these 2 topics are coming ? All the business books are the same .
and I can never understand The Channels of Distribution and which channel is more important Help please .. I dont have internet , My dailup wil finish any moment by now ..
Please !
dude if u cant find anything in the book just go to wikipedia.and i assure u..u only need to know the adv and disadv and they are for capital internsive-lower average costs which results in low prices charged for products leading to high revenue.No need to employ skilled labour so labour costs go down,Relatively unskilled workers are needed so no need for training,high efficiency.or u want more?? disadvantages of capital include high capital required,one machine breaks down whole process comes to a halt,very boring work,low motivation etc
advantage of labour intensive include quality products while disadvantage include high labour costs and jealousy among the workforce
for the Channel of distribution.jus see what each 4 channel of distribution is abt..like in first it is direct Producer to the consumer done for example by mechanic shops etc the second is Producer to the retailer to the consumer like for example tesco shops
third one is abt Producer to wholesaler to retailer to consumer..this is done in case of fruits and vegetables.firms go for it as they recive discounts on bulk buying.fourth one is producer to agent to whole saler to retailer to consumer...this happens in export markets when the firm wants to export it would hve to contact the agent for knowledge abt the local market
hope it helps and +rep:D
