Overview
This topic investigates the economic foundations of organizational decision-making and resource allocation. It combines principles of micro- and behavioural economics with concepts from corporate finance and sustainability theory to explain how firms create and preserve value under uncertainty. The analysis considers cost structures, incentive systems, capital efficiency, and the economics of innovation as interrelated factors of strategic performance. Attention is given to the role of information asymmetry, transaction costs, and stakeholder expectations in shaping financial strategy. Drawing on classical and contemporary authors, the topic places managerial choices within broader market and institutional contexts to provide an integrative framework linking economic rationality with organizational purpose and long-term viability.
