Summary

This unit focusses on the Edexcel Business 1BS0 specification content covered by Topic 1.4 and explores the range of factors that impact on the success of a business. The initial topic builds upon the final topic of Unit 3, examining the concepts and implications of limited and unlimited liability for a start-up or established small business. The topic extends this by exploring the various forms and implications of business ownership and the relative advantages and disadvantages of each.

The subsequent topics in this unit explore other factors that impact upon the success of the business including location, and an introduction to the components of the marketing mix including an analysis of how the various aspects work together. The role and importance of a business plan is analysed, requiring students to synoptically draw upon learning from both this unit and prior units in the specification.
