In this highly competitive world, money is one of the most significant factors for people to survive because people use money to satisfy their desires such as clothes, food, and medicines. A company will gain profit from the amount of money that people used, but only profit cannot make company to be sustainable. Hence, every corporation should be concerned about the triple bottom lines which can lead company to be sustainable.

In class we have gone over certain pieces of literature of vast cultural meaning for a person, such as Homer's works, and the question is, do I think that there is any work of literature that has that same meaning for society today? No, I do not think that there is any work of literature that has the same meaning. When one thinks of "Homer", one automatically refers to the author of the earliest epic poems such as, Trojan War, Iliad and The Odyssey, which almost every pupil has learned or read one if not all three of these stories. As a child I learned about Homer in Middle School and it continued all the way up to College. As a high school student we would have to memorize parts of these poems and then recite them to the class.

Market Structure - Oligopoly Oligopoly is a market structure whereby a few number of firms owns a lion’s share in the market. This market structure is similar to monopoly, except that instead of one firm, two or more firms have control in the market. In an oligopoly, there are no upper limits to the number of firms, but the number must be nadir enough that the operations of one firm remarkably influence and affects the others (Investopedia, 2003).
