MAIN BODY
PARAGRAPH 1: TASK 1
Various types of business and their advantages and disadvantage:
Sole trader:
Individual who develop their business at their owner level, and they have responsibilities
for overall business performance. Productivity, profit totally depends on their performance of
particular. Four ex, Davison Canners and many more they develop overall business activities on
the basis f their power.
Advantages is that they can start their business activity with lower margin and lower risk and
their profitability and their knowledge. Disadvantages like they not engage any other employee
towards with business activity, and they have no support from others, risk, decision- making
each and every aspect depends on the individual.
Partnership:
Partnership is the formal process where two people create legal agreement for individual
business. Business partners share all values of business which means liabilities, expenses, profit
share each and every aspect of business is half percent.

Pros is that they can start their business activity with the good cash, and they make
decision effectively (Ipsen and et.al., 2021). Corns is that some legal aspect and one particular if
they not develop interest in business activity and one particular not effectively participates in the
task so it highly influences business performance.
Limited company:
A firm where organization provides various things, and they provide their services in
market with large number of stakeholders. Firm can develop by the individual or partner,
Company has particular name which is not generates by the other it considers as and legal entity.
Advantages of this type corporation is that they develop employment, and it beneficial for the
country's economy expansion also they provide services with effective manner. Disadvantage it
takes higher cost of registration, is company not provide legal amount to their stakeholder they
have power to close their overall business program, and the formalities of this type of firm is
complex task (Neu, Lahann and Fettke, 2021). Examples Aviva Plc, Capita plc and many more
companies they provide their services with legally and always believes in expand their services
in market with new idea.
PARAGRAPH 2: TASK 2
Compare and contrast organizational structure:
Organisation structure is proper and effective approach which useful for expansion of
effective flow of communication, changes in thought and ideas with proper manner, proper
decision- making process and many more. Structure totally depends on the business owner have
potential to develop and company set up and it depends on that how much they capable to invest
in the business program. Various organisation structure are as follows,
Functional structure:
This types of structure when individual has proper skills and knowledge, and they
provide guidance to their team. It is very well managed structure where individual can share their
thought and explain their employee to their team leader and then team leader discuss. Company's
owner mainly prepares strategy, and they develop plans and completion of this activity they
explain to their manager for particular task. And manager explain to their team member and
provides them information how to perform for task. Cause of this structure is that individual not
directly explain their problems to owner. Tesco, Starbucks and many more comapnies applies
this hierarchical structure, so they manage their work efficiently.

Divisional structure:
Structure where organization divided into the groups and each group has their owner
responsibilities for particular tasks and their has multiple departments and every individual
department has their owner responsibilities. Effectiveness of this structure is that individual
performs effectively within the proper direction, but they way of invidious guidance can
influence the employee performance and owner not capable to directly analyse the employee
performance. It is very broad structure of business (Shahrajabian, Sun and Cheng, 2021).
McDonald's corporations they lead their fast food chain with this structure, because they have so
many stores and every store require one manager.
Matrix structures:
It refers to the process where people connect with the whole organization for the
particular task. And according to business task company manager, leader and owner has power to
change department of employee. This process is also known as hierarchy process, which only
develop for the particular task completion. Almost this process applies by the large number of
employee organization because it is little complicated task and this set up is also has step by step
process of communication and thought discussion activity. The major threat of this stricture is
come time people become confused, and they not have clarity what they do and when
organization develop performance measurement is also complicated task. Amazon, forever21
etc. company follows and develop this structure because they provide services is broad area, and
the organization owner develop effectiveness n their business activist throughout the application
of this structure.
PARAGRAPH 3: TASK 3
Different functionalities of the business

Human resource management is the strategical approach to manage the resources of the
organisation. Every company has their own human resource management cell who can manage

charge to provide better applicant or candidate to the company to carry out their company's
operation effectively. They are also responsible to give competitive advantage to their company.

the company. Such HR practices are applied by the Sainsbury company which are needed to be
implemented to provide benefit to their company those practices are- recruitment and hiring
procedure of new applicant, training and mentoring to new applicant, job analysis, workplace
safety.
Production department:
Production department can be explained as a set of instructions and tools which are
required to design a product for the company. It usually includes the technical tools to process
the informative report of the company which they made based on the market analysis. Production
team of the Sainsbury company always ensures the quality of report before proceeding with the
development process.

high efficiency in the organizational operation so that it will be carried out as a good successful

is in charge of changing raw materials into the product and services for the organization. Good
product can increase the market value of the organization. Therefore, Operation department of
the Sainsbury company manage all the their internal task for the successful completion of their
organisational operation.

Organization develops by the management of multiple aspect. Every department has
different work process, various people, their behaviour attributes. So its important that company
