Define the term corporate social responsibility and give one practical example

Vesna [10]

Answer:

<u>Definition:</u> Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a self-regulating business model that helps a company be socially accountable—to itself, its stakeholders, and the public. By practicing corporate social responsibility, also called corporate citizenship, companies can be conscious of the kind of impact they are having on all aspects of society, including economic, social, and environmental.

To engage in CSR means that, in the ordinary course of business, a company is operating in ways that enhance society and the environment, instead of contributing negatively to them.

<u>Example:</u> Starbucks has long been known for its keen sense of corporate social responsibility and commitment to sustainability and community welfare. According to the company, Starbucks has achieved many of its CSR milestones since it opened its doors. According to its 2019 Global Social Impact Report, these milestones include reaching 99% of ethically sourced coffee, creating a global network of farmers, pioneering green building throughout its stores, contributing millions of hours of community service, and creating a groundbreaking college program for its partner/employees.

Starbucks' goals for 2020 and beyond include hiring 10,000 refugees, reducing the environmental impact of its cups, and engaging its employees in environmental leadership. Today there are many socially responsible companies whose brands are known for their CSR programs, such as Ben & Jerry's ice cream and Everlane, a clothing retailer.

Stels [109]

Answer:

Net Operating Income rises by $10,000 when Fashion Boots is discontinued.

Explanation:

Current operating profit for Boots Plus = $45,000

that is $65,000 profit from Hiking and $20,000 losses from Fashion

In case if Fashion boots is discontinued, then fixed cost eliminated = $30,000

In that case Total fixed cost of fashion boots non eliminated = $40,000 - $30,000 = $10,000

Which will be loss from Fashion as no other operating activity will be there.

Net operating profit of the company will be

Profit from Hiking Boots = $65,000

Less: Loss from Fashion Sales = $10,000 (Fixed Cost not eliminated)

Net Operating profit = $65,000 - $10,000 = $55,000

Net Operating Income rises by $10,000 when Fashion Boots is discontinued.
