[KN] Increase in production cost
[APP] As the business can instal new filters to reduce pollution
[AN] Thus this will reduce the business profit

KN:Environmental law may increase the business cost
APP: for example,In steel factory may need to buy new filters to reduce air pollution
AN: This reduces profit, increases cost because money must be spent on compliance not on expenses

[KN] Environmental laws can result in an increase in business production costs
[APP] a steel manufacturing company in the may be required to install air filtration systems to meet safety standards
[AN] These regulations can increase production costs, as the business must spend large amounts on environmental equipment thus this will reduce profit margins if the market is competitive decreasing the profits of the business.

[KN] Production costs will increase due to the need for new filtration systems.
[APP] Workers will require training on the new machinery, leading to increased costs and potential time wastage.
[AN] This could result in order delays, decreased sales and market share, and damage to the company's brand reputation.

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
•Way 1
[KN]New environmental laws may force businesses to use cleaner production methods.
[APP] For example, a car factory might need to install filters to reduce air pollution.
[AN]This increases costs for the business, which can lower profits, less revenue and less investment in the business as there's almost 0 profit.
•Way 2
[KN] Laws may also restrict how waste is disposed of.
[APP] For instance, a food factory may have to recycle packaging instead of throwing it away.
[AN]This could make production more complicated and time-consuming, slowing down operations.

[kn] new enviormental laws may increase the businesses costs [app] as they may be forced to add filters or increase waste management [an] this would lead to reduced revenue after expenses are cut , may have legal action taken against them if not followed and may take time to abide by these laws

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
[KN] One way a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws is through higher costs. [APP] For example, firms may need to invest in cleaner machinery or waste disposal methods, which raises expenses. [AN] Another way is restrictions on pollution, which may limit production processes or require changes in materials used. These laws can therefore reduce profits in the short term, but they may also improve the firm’s image with environmentally conscious consumers.

KN: The business may face increased cost in order to comply with the new environment laws.
APP: for example a factory producing harmful gas may need to install industrial air filters.
AN: this could reduce profits for the company, limit funds for expansion and reduce competitiveness due to higher prices.

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
(KN)It will increase business costs as manufacturing businesses (factories) will need to install waste disposal equipment.
(APP)For instance, a steel mill will be producing high amount of smoke and gases in the environment so if environmental laws become more strict the steel mills will need to purchase filters to remove harmful chemicals from the smoke so it's costs will increase.
(AN)This will make it so that the business will have worsened cashflow, making it more difficult for it to get a loan, thus making expansion like opening a new factory more difficult for the business, limiting it's market share.
(KN)Business will need to switch to other more environmentally friendly production methods which will waste time.
(APP)For instance, a steel mill might be forced to switch less heavier machinery and hire more labor for smelting and molding of iron to turn it into steel.
(AN)This in turn will make it so that the business will waste time switching methods, leading to a decrease in output, so the business will not be able to meet demand on time, thus worsening brand image.

[kn] It can be affected as there are increased costs.
[app] For example, it may have to install new filters to reduce pollution.
[an+] This will reduce the businesses profit, may change production method and use recyclable materials.

[KN] The business may face higher production costs and can improve its reputation
[APP] For example, it might need to buy new machinery that reduces emissions. And can improve reputation by recycling more and reduce waste.
[AN]This increases expenses and can lower profit margins and can attract more customer which are consulted to less waste and more recycling

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
[KN]a way manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws is that it can increase cost of production
[APP] For example a manufacturing business must install new filters in order to reduce pollution
[AN] This will lead to an increase in expenses which will result in the profit margin to fall hence making it difficult for the business to reinvest or grow due to lack of funds available

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
KN – One way a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws is increased costs of production.
APP – F.e a factory may be forced to install filters to reduce air pollution.
AN – As the production cost will be increased, the profit margin will be decreased. This means the business has less money left for growth and expansion. Some small businesses may even shut down if they cannot afford these changes. To cover costs, prices of products may increase, which will make the less customers to buy their products
KN - Environmental laws may force businesses to change their raw materials or production methods to eco-friendly ones.
APP - F.e a plastic bottle factory may be told to use recyclable plastics instead of non-recyclable ones.
AN - This will slow down the production as new methods will take time to set up. Due to the recyclable plastics, buisness profit margin may decrease. If it fails to adapt new method quickly, it may lose its customers to other competitives.

Re: 10 Outline two ways a manufacturing business can be affected by new environmental laws.
[kn] New environmental laws can significantly impact a manufacturing business by increasing operational costs and forcing changes in production methods. [ap] For example, if a government imposes stricter carbon emission limits, a car manufacturing firm may need to invest in cleaner technologies or upgrade machinery to meet the new standards. [an] This raises costs in the short term but may improve efficiency in the long run. Additionally, laws banning harmful materials—like certain plastics—could require the business to redesign products or switch suppliers, disrupting production. While challenging, such changes can also push firms toward innovation and sustainability
