2.1 Explain how economic systems attempt to allocate resources effectively

2.1.1 The economic system of UK
UK economic system is mixed economy. This usually means an economy that contains both privately-owned and
state-owned enterprises or that combines elements of capitalism and socialism, or a mix of market economy and
planned economy characteristics. This system overcomes the disadvantages of both the market and planned economic
systems.
2.1.2 The way UK allocates and make effective use of resources

Land resources: 243.610km2 (241.930km2 land area, beach area 1.680km2). UK located in northwest
Europe, bordering the Republic of Irland 360km, including England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. The
majority of the terrain is low-lying land interspersed with mountains. In addition, UK also includes a number of
islands and archipelagoes in many parts of the world. Town and country planning in the United Kingdom is the part of
English land law which concerns land use planning. Its goal is to ensure sustainable economic development and a
better environment. Each country of the United Kingdom has its own planning system that is responsible for town and

country planning devolved to the Northern Ireland Assembly, the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Assembly.
Labor resource
According to the information of Department of Foreign Affairs of the Government of UK , UKs population is ranked
at 3rd of Europe in population with 61 million people including English : 83,6%, Scotland 8,6%; Wales 4,9%; North
Ireland 2,9%. There were 30.76 million people in work. In Q2 2014 the employment rate for those aged 16 to 64
increased by 0.3 percentage points to 73.0%. This is the fifth consecutive quarterly rise, resulting in the employment
rate being 1.5 percentage points higher than in the same period a year ago and equal to its Q1 2008 pre-downturn peak.
Similarly to GDP, while the total employment rate has now reached its pre-downturn peak, the composition of
employment offers an interesting insight into the UK labour market.
Looking at the gender split, it appears that male employment was more affected by the 2008/09 economic downturn,
with the male employment rate falling by 4.1 percentage points to a trough of 74.9% in Q1 2010.

Capital resources

Total investment of the UK in 2010 was about $ 300 billion (14% of GDP); 5th World on foreign investment,
accounting for 6.5% of total investment in the world and 2nd world on foreign investment, accounting for 11.5% of
total investment world. Currently the UK is the 6th largest economy in the world with a GDP of 2189 billion by 2010,
GDP per capita in 2010 was $ 35,100. UK is one of the globalized economy in the world, with a policy of free trade,
anti-protectionism (import-export turnover of the UK in 2010 more than 900 billion US dollars). UK is a valued
member of the economic organizations such as the OECD, the WTO.
2.1.3 Assess the effectiveness of the use of resources of UK
Over the years, the management, exploitation and use of resources contribute significantly to economic and society
growth of UK. Resource management is the management of the resources such as land, water, human labor and
capital. UK government has launched the plan, the specific strategic , planning and measures along with appropriate
sanctions, strictly to help the mining and resource use in a reasonable and proper to bring optimum benefits for the
country and the globe. The rational use of resources is particularly important role for the construction of infrastructure,
development of industrial, economic restructuring and labor structure; ensure development rapid and sustainable
economy, contributing positively to the socio - economic development of UK.
2.1.4 Assess the effectiveness of the use of resources of GSK
The main economic influences include factors such as interest rates, the phase of the economic cycle, the balance of
payments, fiscal policy and monetary. These factors are controlled by the government. These factors may affect GSK
extremely large. Such as interest rates and interest rate trends in the economy have affected the trend of savings,
consumption and investment, thus affecting the activity of GSK. Rising interest rates will limit demand for loans to
invest in expanding our business activities, affect GSK's profits. In addition to rising interest rates will also encourage
people to send more money to the banks, so also will make the demand for reduced consumption.
The trend of the exchange rate: The volatility of the exchange rate changing business conditions in general, creating
various opportunities threatening to GSK, particularly the impact it has adjusted production relations import.
The effective of the use of the resource of GSK is expressed clearly in using resources.

Saving water: GSK is striving to be as water efficient as possible to help meet its global target of reducing its

water impact chain by 20% by 2020.

Cutting carbon emissions were recognized by the CDP in 2013, a not-for-profit organization. During the year
they also received the Carbon Trusts Best in Continuing Carbon Reduction award for year-on-year reductions in

emissions associated with their operations.

Waste and other impacts: they are doing this by adopting four simple steps to eliminate, reuse, recycle and
generate energy from waste in that order of priority. Their goal is to halve operational waste by 2020
2.2. Assess the impact of fiscal and monetary policy on business organization and their activities.
2.2.1 Fiscal policy

According to Corporation Tax Act 2010 the corporation tax rate company pay depends on how much profit that
company makes. Company may be able to get deductions or claim tax credits on their Corporation Tax. Over the
years, corporate tax policy has been repeatedly amended and supplemented to create favorable conditions for
businesses. To remove difficulties for enterprises, UK's government always focus on the importance in general tax
policy, in particular corporate income tax; Accordingly, from 01.01.2014, the corporation tax rate reduced to 21%
(2008 is 28%). Decrease 7% is a significant capital for the activities of GSK. Take advantages from applying a new tax
policy, GSK has faster turnaround capital for reinvestment. Whenever tax will reduce the cost of drag reduced the
selling price will be reduced, as it will match the purchasing power, then GSK will expand the market because of
drugs and vaccines items always in demand, when prices decline, demand and supply will meet.
2.2.2 Monetary Policy
According to 2013 No. 721 Article 2 The Bank of England (Call Notice) (Benchmark Rate of Interest) Order 2013
The Bank of England has left interest rates unchanged at 0.5% and made no change to its program of quantitative
easing, as had been widely expected. The Bank of Englands balance sheet will probably continue to grow as it shores
up more banks and financial institutions with both capital injections and loans, and as it acquires government Treasury
bills to help finance the stimulus package will attempting to limit the crowding out of private borrowers. The
benchmark interest rate in the United Kingdom was last recorded at 0.50 percent.
The impact of monetary policy
For GSK, the interest rate forms the capital cost and the material costs of the production process. Therefore, any
variation in interest rates on the market are also directly affected the efficiency of production, business or directly
impact the profitability of GSK and change their economic behavior. When interest rates of Bank of England are rise,
it will make material costs and product price increases, as well as declining profitability and competitiveness of GSK,
causing losses. Increase bank interest rates will always be associated with the trend of cuts, shrinking the size and
scope of the production activities in the economy. Conversely, when interest rates are decrease, it will make good
condition for GSK to reduce costs, improve business efficiency and competitiveness. Low interest loans are always
encouraged, GSK expand investment, development and production activities and thereby stimulate growth in the
whole economy.
2.3 Evaluate the impact of competition policy and other regulatory mechanisms on the activities of a selected
organization
2.3.1 Competition policy:
According to 2013 No. 500 The National Health Service (Procurement, Patient Choice and Competition) (No. 2)
Regulations 2013. The Government is making regulations in order to maintain key existing requirements falling on
Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) which are to be abolished. This includes establishing good procurement practice,
protecting patient choice and addressing anti-competitive conduct where this acts against the interests of patients.

GSK has the right to freedom competition under UK government control. They must operate based on
principle of honesty, non-infringement upon the interests of public, legitimate rights and interests of enterprises. All is
fair competition; there is not any exception for any company. Therefore, in order to have strong position in UK market,
GSK must try more to create innovative products to compete with their direct competitors.
For example: Panadol Advance of GSK is 2.85 and another product with the same function Cuprofen Maximum
Strength Tabs is 3.09. It can be seen that GSK using Cost Leadership to create competitive advantage for their
product, cut unnecessary costs, save water, save electricity also help GSK to cut a lot of unnecessary expenses.
2.3.2 UKs social welfare policy
According to Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 , the provisions of this policy shall have effect with a view to
securing the health, safety and welfare of persons at work; protecting persons other than persons at work against risks
to health or safety arising out of or in connection with the activities of persons at work; controlling the keeping and use
of explosive or highly flammable or otherwise dangerous substances, and generally preventing the unlawful
acquisition, possession and use of such substances; controlling the emission into the atmosphere of noxious or
offensive substances from premises of any class prescribed for the purposes of this paragraph.
Based on this policy, company needs to be ensuring the safety working environment for their workers, and protect
their health, working security as well. If their staffs get an accident while working at GSK, GSK must have the
responsibility for supporting money for them. Furthermore, the policies as a tool to encourage GSK focus more on the
community such as environment protection and charity.
