my teacher sent an email on what the department though would be in the next test and they highlighted labour and organisation of firms so really revise those! also, production, business ownerships (esp. small businesses i.e. not companies,) marketing mix - pricing, external costs and benefits <- but there was a lot about external things with the whole exchange rate thing so hopefully that wont come up again :s-smilie: oh also location of business. and they tend not to repeat topics that were in the first test.

no high labour turnover is bad because it means a lot of employees are leaving the business. labour turnover = number of employees that leave annually
