Today
Goals
Develop a framework to think about how firms
create and capture value
Show that with simple tools, we can learn a lot
in practice.
Explore how we can embed social responsibility
decisions into this framework

Profit Maximization
What is the main goal of the Firm?
A firm must aim to maximize its profits
Why?
So, where does social impact come in?
Environmental concerns
Labor standards
Social welfare
Other social impact issues?

Profit Maximization
We will take profit maximization as the
overarching goal of strategy.
Profit

= Total Revenue - Total Cost


=

Revenue
per unit

Cost
per unit

x Unit sales

= ( Price - Average cost ) x Quantity

For a strategy to be profitable it must


increase price, or
decrease average cost, or
increase quantity sold

Profit Maximization
Why is Profit maximization not a strategy?
Maximize profits is the goal of the firm in exactly the
same way as win is the goal of a football coach
Profits are the eventual goal, but we will focus on the
decisions that lead to long-term profitability

What inputs to acquire


What process to use
What products to produce
What customers to serve
What price to charge

Economics turns out to be particularly powerful tool to


understand and analyze the underlying decisions

LESSONS SO FAR
A product or service must
provide benefits to the end
user in order to create
value
A firm must create value in
order to have value to
capture as profits
Creating value does not
guarantee profits. The firm
must also be able to
capture some of that
value through the price it
charges.
