The economic objective is considered overriding for profit-making organizations because it directly relates to the primary goal of these entities, which is to generate profits. This objective guides all strategic decisions and actions within the organization, ensuring that they contribute to profitability. It's the measure of the organization's success and sustainability. While other objectives like customer satisfaction, service excellence, etc., are important, they are means to achieve the economic objective, not the end goal.
