The Introduction of the Special Issue

Economics and business are strongly related. Whether or not a business can be successful significantly depends on a nation's economy However, a nation s economy can be influenced by the government economic policies,such as fiscal policy, monetary policy, energy policy, etc. Therefore, how government economic policies affect business investment behavior and hence influence the business administration and management becomes a primary and important issue. For example, suppose that the government raises the corporation income tax. How would this tax increase affect a business investment behavior? Since the operation cost increases due to a higher tax rate, how would this tax increase adjust the business structure in administration and management?
