Factors controlling a quarry´s profit
Original language description
The business profits are affected by natural and technological circumstances, as well as factors implied in human activities as such. This paper investigates natural factors influencing profitability of the quarry extraction of raw materials for buildingindustries. The file under analysis comprises 70 profitable and loss making quarry enterprises operating in 2008, and 50 of them operating in 2009. The method of discriminate analysis was used for classifying these enterprises as profit or loss making.As input values for the analysis, eight standard company procedure monitoring parameters were used plus two parameters acquired by special inquiries. The causes of erroneous classification have been analysed. It has been concluded that profitability is primarily affected by human factors paralleled by the time for which the enterprise under analysis has been in tenure of the company. Natural factors play a secondary role concerning sales revenue per one ton of production.
