 QUESTION 5

 Read the case study below and answer the questions.

  A.B. Jacobs started a shoe business, AJ Stores, in Woodstock Cape Town. He raised
  capital by asking his parents to assist. Jacobs manufactured shoes for sports brands,
  security firms and schools. He professionally runs his business in a small factory with
  10 staff members. They are able to produce 30 pairs of shoes every 3 hours.

  All the people who work for AJ Stores were previously unemployed. His workers are
  very happy as he treats them fairly and pays them well. Jacobs has also taken on
  young school leavers who are interested in shoe making and has started training them.
  Jacobs has also been saving his profits. Although he has to compete with cheaper
  imports his business is running successfully. As a result, he is thinking of expanding his
  business. He is looking for investors who can invest into his business.

 5.1    Will AJ Stores attract investors from overseas? Explain your answer

        No.                                                                           √
        The business is too small to attract a foreign investors at this
        stage.                                                                       √√        (3)

 5.2    What form of ownership is AJ Stores?

        Sole trader                                                                   √        (1)

 5.3    Give TWO advantages of this ownership mentioned in QUESTION 5.2.

        He receives all the profits.                                                  √
        Easy to start.
        Can adapt easily to changing conditions.                                      √        (2)

 5.4    Explain how investment contributes to economic growth.

        Investment leads to more jobs being created and this will also increase
        the production of goods and services.                                   √              (1)

                                                                  TOTAL SECTION C:              7
