Paper 1 · November 2018 · Enterprise Skills
A factor that is likely to contribute to the success of a business enterprise is
Aa workforce left without training once it has been recruited.
Ba clear business plan setting out how the enterprise will operate.
Ca high rate of staff turnover that keeps the wage bill low.
Da refusal to change the product after customers' tastes shift.
Explanation
A business plan forces the owner to test the idea, cost it and set targets before money is committed, and it is what a lender asks to see. Constant staff turnover, an unchanging product and an untrained workforce all raise costs or lose customers, so each of them works against success.
