Business is the human activity related to material things. It is necessary for civilization. It is found in all societies, even the simplest ones. Business may include the production of goods: making airplanes, building buildings, and constructing paper boxes are examples of production. It can also provide the financing for these activities Lending money, trading stocks and bonds, and selling insurance policies relate to the securing of capital (getting money) for business activities.

Business, then, is the activity of producing and distributing goods and services.

In our study of business, it is necessary to understand the four basic factors of production. These four factors are land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. What is meant by these four terms?

In order to produce things, it is necessary to use land. Here, the term land is used in the most general way. It refers not only to a piece of real estate where we might build a factory, but it also means all the raw materials used for production. Some of these raw materials are found on the earth's surface, such as trees, which yield (give) wood for lumber. Other raw materials are found under the earth's surface in mines and oil wells, and still other raw materials may be extracted (taken) from the air. All the raw materials for production come from the land, the air, and the ocean.
