Buying And Selling
Muhtasari
Commerce exists because producers and consumers rarely meet face to face. Between a factory floor and a shopping basket sits an entire network of buying decisions, distribution channels, and cost trade-offs that keep goods flowing across cities and continents.
In this lesson you will explore the different sources of buying, the role of intermediaries such as wholesalers and distributors, why firms outsource production, and the hidden costs on both sides of every commercial transaction. These ideas underpin the whole Commerce specification and appear in virtually every exam paper.
Malengo
- Understand sources of buying in commerce, including home, international, direct, indirect buying through an intermediary (wholesaler, distributor), mail order, and the advantages and disadvantages of each source
- Understand reasons firms might outsource production
- Understand costs associated with buying: transport costs, transaction costs, administration costs, environmental costs, research costs, staffing costs
- Understand costs associated with selling: sales staff, payment processes, stolen inventory, damaged inventory, distribution costs
