Abstract

Sustainable Development is a development that strikes a balance between current needs achieved by the generation on the future generation. It is a concept that has matured and shifted more focus to economic, social, and environmental development for future generations. There are some capacities for sustainable development: measure progress, promote equity, adapt to shocks, transform development pathways, link knowledge with action, and govern cooperatively. In Commerce, it shows which methods of keeping or maintaining accounting in our business are appropriate for the future generation. In this paper, the ratios show their value by the data. Management shows which policies and programs have not affected the future generation. It shows how efficiently we are currently using our resources and managing them for future generations. Through this research, we will get enough ideas about the future situations of Commerce, Management in the context of sustainability and also give solutions to some unknown conditions.
