to develop ideas of how businesses run. The value that they give is not dependant on the framework of the idea itself, but in how they can be used to
add value to any understanding. They are also reliant on the input and the transformation processes in their use as they all require though to turn fact into useful and
usable information. The placing of values is therefore personal to the analysis that intends to use them, and may also be seen as dependant on the situation in which
they will be used, for example, in a monopoly position the need to develop a competitive advantages may be week, but a SWOT analysis may improve costs and performance.
To different three main concepts that are important these will need to cover a range of areas to gain the most value, but will also need to be capable of
operating together. The use of the frameworks, or the concepts, are subjective, as such three have been chosen that look to both the macro and the micro environment and consider
the value chain and commerce in an holistic manner, as well as merely any aspect of operations. The three concepts chosen here
are Coases Theorem, Porters Five Forces models and the related idea of competitive advantage and finally the concept of product lifecycles. These all look at different aspects of
commercial interests and development. Coases theorem looks at the way that property rights impact, or do not impact on the way business operates. Looking at the environment it challenges traditional
and conventional thinking of the way in which resources are used. Porters five forces also considers the environment, but this time it is a narrower and more conversions consider, looking
