SWOT Analysis
If a firm wants to project an increase in sales from
P10,000,000 to P20,000,000, the most obvious
questions that managers will ask would be: "Do
we have the resources to increase our capacity
such as technology and manpower? If we don't,
are we willing to invest?" In essence, that is an
internal analysis. Questions that pertain to the
external environment would be: "What is the
economic outlook in the next 5 years? Is there
going to be an increase in the buying power of
the customers?"
