Budgets and managing money is about what systems and skills are required in business to be successful and profitable. A business, also known as an enterprise or a firm, is an organisation involved in the trade of goods, services, or both to consumers. Businesses are prevalent in capitalist economies, where most of them are privately owned and provide goods and services to customers in exchange for other goods, services, or money. Businesses may also be not-for-profit or state-owned. www.executivementors.com.au
