Because of new discoveries and inventions, better-quality goods and services are built at a faster pace and often at a lower cost. Improved materials, for example, may weigh less, last longer, and permit faster product assembly. Examples of new technology are found in everyday items such as cars, clothing, computers, and electronic appliances. With advanced technology, a business can enjoy a powerful advantage over competitors. And because technology has a significant impact on productivity, businesses spend billions of dollars annually on buying and using new technology.
