There are many types of goverment interventions that can affect a business, but taxes need to be specially mentioned.
Business have to pay taxes for the income generated by their economic activities, for the properties owned by the company, for the employees hired, etc. These taxes need to be considered as fixed costs that are impossible to circumvent. Therefore, the business plan and profit making mechanisms need to take taxes into account in their previsions. Part of the profit generated by the company by selling goods or services needs to be directed to meet the tax payments.
