It is responsible for deciding how much money each government agency receives in the budget.
The equilibrium is the price that comes out from adding all the direct related costs in producing the good or service. To this total you have to add the indirect costs, for example, taxes, salaries, etc. Add up both results and you will have the price.

Before the French Revolution, the french society had the structure of feudalism that was known as Estates System, a person belonged to an Estate which determined this person’s rights and status in society and usually, people did not change Estates.
The Peasants (3rd Estate) were the majority of the population but they lacked political and economic power and also did not own the majority of the land.
The second Estate the clergy and nobility controlled the majority of the land in France and also had important positions in the government, church, and military. After the French Revolution, there was major land reform.
International influence, also they had just defeated Spain when they begun having imperial ambitions, therefore they may want to fill that gap
