BACKGROUND
Today's business world is very developed, ranging from
small businesses, medium to large businesses. But the problem is that not many
people know about business organizations, so their business has not used the
right business structure. There are also many people who do not know about the
forms of business organizations, so they do not know what form of business they
are running.
For a business to run successfully it needs to be organized. In organizing
a business, of course, you must pay attention to the existing business
elements. Business elements that need the attention of entrepreneurs, namely
the business environment. The environment has a huge influence on the
efficiency of the company's operations and its ability to obtain profits. For
that reason, every owner and business leader must be able to understand the
state of the environment and the environmental impact on its business. Likewise
with business organizations, a business will become clear when structured.
In the business world a goal is to organize a business. Organizational
goals are needs that want to be fulfilled in a certain period of time. Vision
is a long-term desire, realized through efforts to achieve short-term goals
(annual). This goal is to be achieved by the people who make up the
organization.

CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
1. HOW OUR SOCIETY ORGANIZED
The Republic of Indonesia was declared in 1945, with
a proclaimed jurisdiction over the present area from Sabang in Sumatra to
Merauke in Papua, or the entire area of the former Dutch (or Netherlands) East
Indies. Although the Netherlands retained possession of a large part of this
region (including Papua), a provisional capital was established in Yogyakarta,
the stronghold of the revolution.
With the close of the struggle for independence in
1949, the Republic of the United States of Indonesia was established. The
federal system did not last, however, and in 1950 the federated governments
unanimously decided to return to a “unitary”—or more centralized—form of
government, as well as to the name Republic of Indonesia. After some
difficulties, the constitution of 1945 was reinstated by presidential decree.
This constitution has remained the basis of Indonesia’s government, although
some significant amendments were made during a period of reformasi
(reformation) around the turn of the 21st century.
2. ECONOMIC SYSTEM
Economic system, any of the ways in which humankind
has arranged for its material provisioning. One would think that there would be
a great variety of such systems, corresponding to the many cultural
arrangements that have characterized human society. Surprisingly, that is not
the case. Although a wide range of institutions and social customs have been
associated with the economic activities of society, only a very small number of
basic modes of provisioning can be discovered beneath this variety. Indeed,
history has produced but three such kinds of economic systems: those based on
the principle of tradition, those centrally planned and organized according to
command, and the rather small number, historically speaking, in which the
central organizing form is the market.
The very paucity of fundamental modes of economic
organization calls attention to a central aspect of the problem of economic
“systems”—namely, that the objective to which all economic arrangements must be
addressed has itself remained unchanged throughout human history. Simply
stated, this unvarying objective is the coordination of the individual
activities associated with provisioning—activities that range from providing
subsistence foods in hunting and gathering societies to administrative or
financial tasks in modern industrial systems. What may be called “the economic
problem” is the orchestration of these activities into a coherent social
whole—coherent in the sense of providing a social order with the goods or
services it requires to ensure its own continuance and to fulfill its perceived
historic mission.
Social coordination can in turn be analyzed as two
distinct tasks. The first of these is the production of the goods and services
needed by the social order, a task that requires the mobilization of society’s
resources, including its most valuable, human effort. Of nearly equal
importance is the second task, the appropriate distribution of the product.
(See distribution theory.) This distribution not only must provide for the
continuance of a society’s labour supply (even slaves had to be fed) but also
must accord with the prevailing values of different social orders, all of which
favour some recipients of income over others—men over women, aristocrats over
commoners, property owners over nonowners, or political party members over
nonmembers. In standard textbook treatments, the economic problem of production
and distribution is summarized by three questions that all economic systems
must answer: what goods and services are to be produced, how goods and services
are to be produced and distributed, and for whom the goods and services are to
be produced and distributed.
All modes of accomplishing these basic tasks of
production and distribution rely on social rewards or penalties of one kind or
another. Tradition-based societies depend largely on communal expressions of
approval or disapproval. Command systems utilize the open or veiled power of
physical coercion or punishment, or the bestowal of wealth or prerogatives. The
third mode—the market economy—also brings pressures and incentives to bear, but
the stimuli of gain and loss are not usually within the control of any one person
or group of persons. Instead, the incentives and pressures emerge from the
“workings” of the system itself, and, on closer inspection, those workings turn
out to be nothing other than the efforts of individuals to gain financial
rewards by supplying the things that others are willing to pay for.
There is a paradoxical aspect to the manner in which
the market resolves the economic problem. In contrast to the conformity that
guides traditional society or the obedience to superiors that orchestrates command
society, behaviour in a market society is mostly self-directed and seems,
accordingly, an unlikely means for achieving social integration. Yet, as
economists ever since Adam Smith have delighted in pointing out, the clash of
self-directed wills in the competitive market environment serves as an
essential legal and social precondition for the market system to operate. Thus,
the competitive engagement of self-seeking individuals results in the creation
of the third, and by all odds the most remarkable, of the three modes of
solving the economic problem.
Not surprisingly, these three principal solutions—of
tradition, command, and market—are distinguished by the distinct attributes
they impart to their respective societies. The coordinative mechanism of tradition,
resting as it does on the perpetuation of social roles, is marked by a
characteristic changelessness in the societies in which it is dominant. Command
systems, on the other hand, are marked by their capacity to mobilize resources
and labour in ways far beyond the reach of traditional societies, so that
societies with command systems typically boast of large-scale achievements such
as the Great Wall of China or the Egyptian pyramids. The third system, that in
which the market mechanism plays the role of energizer and coordinator, is in
turn marked by a historical attribute that resembles neither the routines of
traditional systems nor the grandiose products of command systems. Instead, the
market system imparts a galvanic charge to economic life by unleashing
competitive, gain-oriented energies. This charge is dramatically illustrated by
the trajectory of capitalism, the only social order in which the market
mechanism has played a central role. In The Communist Manifesto, published in
1848, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote that in less than a century the
capitalist system had created “more massive and more colossal productive forces
than have all preceding generations together.” They also wrote that it was
“like the sorcerer, who is no longer able to control the powers of the nether
world whom he has called up by his spells.” That creative, revolutionary, and
sometimes disruptive capacity of capitalism can be traced in no small degree to
the market system that performs its coordinative task. (For discussion of the
political and philosophical aspects of capitalism, see liberalism. For
discussion of the political and philosophical aspects of communism and
socialism, see communism and socialism.)
3. HOW OUR GOVERNMENT IS ORGANIZED
Indonesia
is divided into some 30 propinsi, or provinsi (provinces), plus the two daerah
istimewa (special districts) of Yogyakarta in central Java and Aceh in northern
Sumatra and the daerah khusus ibukota (special capital district) of
metropolitan Jakarta, known as Jakarta Raya. On the smaller islands, most
administrative regions were created to coincide with traditional regions, the
boundaries of which were defined largely by natural geographic features; on the
larger islands, by contrast, administrative boundaries were constructed to
simplify complex traditional and cultural divisions. The province of Central
Java (Jawa Tengah), for instance, spans not only the core of the island of Java
but also the core of Javanese culture. Within the province’s borders lie the
semiautonomous special district of Yogyakarta and the city of Surakarta (Solo),
both of which are historical court centres that maintain traditional rulers
(albeit without real political power). Similarly, the provinces of West Java
(Jawa Barat) and Banten, on the western part of the island, coincide with the
geographic, cultural, and linguistic terrain of the Sundanese people.
The number of first-order political subdivisions has
changed since the end of the 20th century. East Timor (declared a province in
1976) gained its independence in 1999. In addition, largely as a result of the
push to decentralize in the early 21st century, several new provinces were
created out of the existing structure. The province of Banten (2000) was formed
from the western tip of West Java. West Papua (Papua Barat; 2006) was created
from the western end of Papua. North Kalimantan (Kalimantan Utara; 2012) was
split off from East Kalimantan. New provinces in Celebes included Gorontalo
(2000; government installed in 2001) on the northern peninsula and West
Sulawesi (Sulawesi Barat; 2004) in the island’s west-central coastal region.
The Riau Islands (Kepulauan Riau; 2002; government installed in 2004) and
Bangka Belitung (2000; government installed in 2001) were created from islands
off Sumatra’s eastern shore.
Each of the more than 300 second-order subdivisions,
kabupaten (regencies), is headed by a bupati (governor) and has a local
legislature. More than 5,000 third-order divisions, kecamatan (districts), and
several dozen kota (cities) have obtained autonomous status. Since 1999
district and city leaders have been chosen through direct local elections.
Members of the Local Councils of Representatives (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat
Daerah), which deal more directly with the national legislature, also are selected
through general election.
Villages (kampung) and groups of villages (desa),
which exist in both rural and urban areas, provide the link between the people
and the central government on the district level. Kampung and desa heads are
usually elected in rural areas and appointed in urban ones; they are all local
government employees. Normally, a village has two levels of neighbourhood
organization, a rukun warga (RW; community association) and rukun tetangga (RT;
neighbourhood associations). These bodies elect their chairpersons.
4. HOW BUSINESS IS ORGANIZED
VOA
Special English Economics Report written by Mario Ritter.
Businesses are structured in different ways to meet
different needs. The simplest form of business is called an individual or sole
proprietorship. The proprietor owns all of the property of the business and is
responsible for everything. For legal purposes, with this kind of business, the
owner and the company are the same. This means the proprietor gets to keep all
of the profits of the business, but must also pay any debts. Another kind of
business is the partnership. Two or more people go into business together. An
agreement is usually needed to decide how much of the partnership each person
controls.
One
kind of partnership is called a limited liability partnership. These have full
partners and limited partners. Limited partners may not share as much in the
profits, but they also have less responsibility for the business.
Doctors,
lawyers and accountants often form partnerships to share their risks and
profits. A husband and wife can form a business partnership together.
Partnerships
exist only for as long as the owners remain alive. The same is true of
individual proprietorships.
But
corporations are designed to have an unlimited lifetime. A corporation is the
most complex kind of business organization.
Corporations
can sell stock as a way to raise money. Stock represents shares of ownership in
a company. Investors who buy stock can trade their shares or keep them as long
as the company is in business.
A
company might use some of its earnings to pay dividends as a reward to
shareholders. Or the company might reinvest the money back into the business.
If
shares lose value, investors can lose all of the money they paid for their
stock. But shareholders are not responsible for the debts of the corporation. A
corporation is recognized as an entity -- its own legal being, separate from
its owners. A board of directors controls corporate policies. The directors
appoint top company officers. The directors might or might not hold shares in
the corporation
Corporations
can have a few major shareholders. Or ownership can be spread among the general
public. But not all corporations are traditional businesses that sell stock.
Some nonprofit groups are also organized as corporations.
5. THE HEALTHY ECONOMY
Indonesia has a national health care network that
offers treatment either free of charge or for a nominal cost through several
types of medical facilities. District medical centres, the most comprehensive
of which combine general medical clinics with maternal and child-health
centres, provide services in family planning, school health, nutrition,
communicable-disease control, health statistics, environmental health, health
education, dental health, and public-health nursing. The district centres also
supervise the community and village health centres (puskesmas), which are the
primary health providers in rural areas. A third type of public medical
facility is the posyandu, an integrated health-service post that is designed to
serve those whose health is most at risk. These posts are more widely available
than the village health centres and offer a variety of services to women and
children in particular, ranging from immunizations and nutrition counseling to
family planning.
In general, the cost of specialized health care, as
provided by private hospitals and doctors, is beyond the reach of Indonesians
in both the low- and middle-income groups. A government-sponsored health
insurance system for specialized care was introduced in the late 20th century,
but has been slow to cover people working in small private companies or in the
informal sector. Many companies provide medical assistance to employees, but
there is no legal requirement to do so.
Most of the major communicable diseases in Indonesia
are well under control. Malaria and tuberculosis are no longer persistent
health problems, but outbreaks of dengue and cholera still occur. Heart
problems and strokes have become more common, owing at least in part to changes
in diet that have accompanied economic growth since the 1970s. Cancer also has
become more widespread. Drug addiction has increased notably, particularly
among young people in the urban centres, and there has been a sharp rise in HIV
infection and cases of AIDS, especially since the end of the 20th century.
One of the most serious public health problems is
the shortage of medical and paramedical personnel, mainly nurses and midwives.
Although all new graduates of the government’s medical schools are required to
work for one year in rural areas, few doctors choose to stay in such regions
after fulfilling their service obligation. Outside the major urban centres,
many people use traditional healers, called dukun. An indigenous midwife
(paraji or dukun beranak), often with limited training, assists many of the
births in Indonesia; extensive training programs have been implemented to bring
the paraji toward the standards of qualified midwives. Such programs
contributed to a significant drop in the infant mortality rate—from well above
to well below the world average—from the mid-20th to the early 21st century.
Another important public health issue, family
planning (keluarga berancana; commonly called “KB”), conceptually runs counter
to traditional views, and there was much resistance to such programs when they
were introduced. A massive attempt has been made to provide information on
family planning to women of childbearing age, typically through clinics that
are run by the Department of Health. This program has achieved considerable
success, particularly in Java and Bali, and has come to be considered a model
in Asia.
6. ECONOMIC SYSTEM INDONESIA AND U.S
v Indonesia has played a modest role in
the world economy since the mid-20th century, and its importance has been
considerably less than its size, resources, and geographic position would seem
to warrant. The country is a major exporter of crude petroleum and natural
gas. In addition, Indonesia is one of the
world’s main suppliers of rubber, coffee,
cocoa, and palm oil; it also produces a wide range of other commodities, such
as sugar, tea,
tobacco, copra, and spices (e.g., cloves). Nearly all commodity production
comes from large estates. Widespread exploration for deposits of oil and
other minerals has resulted in a number of large-scale projects that have
contributed substantially to general development funds.
Although
Indonesia has remained a major importer of manufactured goods, high technology,
and technical skills since the early 1970s, the country’s economic base has
shifted from the primary sector to secondary and tertiary
industries—manufacturing, trade, and services. Manufacturing surpassed
agriculture in terms of contribution to gross
domestic product (GDP) in the
early 1990s and has continued to be the largest single component of the
country’s economy. A significant portion of the national budget has continued
to be allocated to
agriculture, however; consequently, the country has remained self-sufficient in
rice production since the mid-1980s.
During the early years of
Indonesia’s independence, economic mismanagement and the subordination of
development to political ideals under the “Guided Economy” policy of the
country’s first president, Sukarno (1949–66),
led to financial chaos and
to a serious deterioration in the capital stock. With a major change of
economic direction after Suharto assumed
power in the mid-1960s, some measure of stability was regained, and the
conditions for an orderly policy of rehabilitation and economic development
were established.
From 1969 to 1998 a series of
five-year plans emphasized the government’s role in developing the
economic infrastructure of
the country, notably in agriculture, irrigation, transportation, and
communications. Thus, the government, together with foreign
aid, has been a major force in propelling
development in areas where private enterprise has not been immediately
forthcoming; the state-owned oil company Pertamina was a product of these
government initiatives.
In the late 20th century, the emphasis in the public sector tended
increasingly toward independent, self-financing state enterprises.
Substantial expansion of the
private sector has been evident since the mid-1990s. Prior to that time, growth
generally had been confined to a rather small group of conglomerates, most
benefiting from the government’s favour. Small business was slower to develop.
The deregulation of the capital market in the early 1980s triggered spectacular
growth in the stock
exchange, but despite the increase in domestic
investment, direct participation in the stock market remained limited to a very
small group of investors.
Foreign direct investment spiked in
the 1990s but rapidly receded in the aftermath of the Asian economic crisis
sparked by the collapse of the Thai baht in 1997. The government subsequently
inaugurated a four-year national development plan that helped return the
economy to its precrisis strength. By 2003 the country was stable enough to
allow the expiration of an economic reform program that had been sponsored by
the International
Monetary Fund (IMF). A new
development strategy involving liberalization in some areas and limitation of
foreign ownership in others has aimed to establish Indonesia as a fully
self-sufficient (swasembada) country in the 21st century.
In
every economic system, entrepreneurs and managers bring together natural
resources, labor, and technology to produce and distribute goods and services.
But the way these different elements are organized and used also reflects a
nation's political ideals and its culture.
The
United States is often described as a "capitalist" economy, a term
coined by 19th-century German economist and social theorist Karl Marx to describe
a system in which a small group of people who control large amounts of money,
or capital, make the most important economic decisions. Marx contrasted
capitalist economies to "socialist" ones, which vest more power in
the political system. Marx and his followers believed that capitalist economies
concentrate power in the hands of wealthy business people, who aim mainly to
maximize profits; socialist economies, on the other hand, would be more likely
to feature greater control by government, which tends to put political aims --
a more equal distribution of society's resources, for instance -- ahead of
profits.
While
those categories, though oversimplified, have elements of truth to them, they
are far less relevant today. If the pure capitalism described by Marx ever
existed, it has long since disappeared, as governments in the United States and
many other countries have intervened in their economies to limit concentrations
of power and address many of the social problems associated with unchecked private
commercial interests. As a result, the American economy is perhaps better
described as a "mixed" economy, with government playing an important
role along with private enterprise.
Although
Americans often disagree about exactly where to draw the line between their
beliefs in both free enterprise and government management, the mixed economy
they have developed has been remarkably successful.
Kind
of Economic Indonesian Business are:
1) Agriculture, forestry, and fishing
2) Resources and power
3) Manufacturing
4) Finance
5) Trade
6) Labour
7) Transportation
and telecommunications
8) Roads
and railways
9) Water
and air transport
The first ingredient of a nation's
economic system is its natural resources. The United States is rich in mineral
resources and fertile farm soil, and it is blessed with a moderate climate. It
also has extensive coastlines on both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, as well
as on the Gulf of Mexico. Rivers flow from far within the continent, and the
Great Lakes -- five large, inland lakes along the U.S. border with Canada --
provide additional shipping access. These extensive waterways have helped shape
the country's economic growth over the years and helped bind America's 50
individual states together in a single economic unit.
The second ingredient is labor, which
converts natural resources into goods. The number of available workers and,
more importantly, their productivity help determine the health of an economy.
Throughout its history, the United States has experienced steady growth in the
labor force, and that, in turn, has helped fuel almost constant economic
expansion. Until shortly after World War I, most workers were immigrants from
Europe, their immediate descendants, or African-Americans whose ancestors were
brought to the Americas as slaves. In the early years of the 20th century,
large numbers of Asians immigrated to the United States, while many Latin
American immigrants came in later years.
Although the United States has
experienced some periods of high unemployment and other times when labor was in
short supply, immigrants tended to come when jobs were plentiful. Often willing
to work for somewhat lower wages than acculturated workers, they generally
prospered, earning far more than they would have in their native lands. The
nation prospered as well, so that the economy grew fast enough to absorb even
more newcomers.
The quality of available labor -- how hard people are willing to work and how skilled they are -- is at least as important to a country's economic success as the number of workers. In the early days of the United States, frontier life required hard work, and what is known as the Protestant work ethic reinforced that trait. A strong emphasis on education, including technical and vocational training, also contributed to America's economic success, as did a willingness to experiment and to change.

A strong emphasis on education, including technical and vocational training, also contributed to America's economic success, as did a willingness to experiment and to change.
Labor mobility has likewise been
important to the capacity of the American economy to adapt to changing
conditions. When immigrants flooded labor markets on the East Coast, many
workers moved inland, often to farmland waiting to be tilled. Similarly,
economic opportunities in industrial, northern cities attracted black Americans
from southern farms in the first half of the 20th century.
Labor-force quality continues to be an
important issue. Today, Americans consider "human capital" a key to
success in numerous modern, high-technology industries. As a result, government
leaders and business officials increasingly stress the importance of education
and training to develop workers with the kind of nimble minds and adaptable
skills needed in new industries such as computers and telecommunications.
But natural resources and labor account
for only part of an economic system. These resources must be organized and
directed as efficiently as possible. In the American economy, managers,
responding to signals from markets, perform this function. The traditional
managerial structure in America is based on a top-down chain of command;
authority flows from the chief executive in the boardroom, who makes sure that
the entire business runs smoothly and efficiently, through various lower levels
of management responsible for coordinating different parts of the enterprise,
down to the foreman on the shop floor. Numerous tasks are divided among
different divisions and workers. In early 20th-century America, this
specialization, or division of labor, was said to reflect "scientific
management" based on systematic analysis.
Many enterprises continue to operate
with this traditional structure, but others have taken changing views on
management. Facing heightened global competition, American businesses are
seeking more flexible organization structures, especially in high-technology
industries that employ skilled workers and must develop, modify, and even
customize products rapidly. Excessive hierarchy and division of labor
increasingly are thought to inhibit creativity. As a result, many companies
have "flattened" their organizational structures, reduced the number
of managers, and delegated more authority to interdisciplinary teams of
workers.
Before managers or teams of workers can
produce anything, of course, they must be organized into business ventures. In
the United States, the corporation has proved to be an effective device for
accumulating the funds needed to launch a new business or to expand an existing
one. The corporation is a voluntary association of owners, known as
stockholders, who form a business enterprise governed by a complex set of rules
and customs.
Corporations must have financial resources to acquire the resources they need to produce goods or services. They raise the necessary capital largely by selling stock (ownership shares in their assets) or bonds (long-term loans of money) to insurance companies, banks, pension funds, individuals, and other investors. Some institutions, especially banks, also lend money directly to corporations or other business enterprises. Federal and state governments have developed detailed rules and regulations to ensure the safety and soundness of this financial system and to foster the free flow of information so investors can make well-informed decisions.

The gross domestic product measures the
total output of goods and services in a given year. In the United States it has
been growing steadily, rising from more than $3.4 trillion in 1983 to around
$8.5 trillion by 1998. But while these figures help measure the economy's
health, they do not gauge every aspect of national well-being. GDP shows the
market value of the goods and services an economy produces, but it does not
weigh a nation's quality of life. And some important variables -- personal
happiness and security, for instance, or a clean environment and good health --
are entirely beyond its scope.
