Developments in Financial Management
n During the 1940s and early 1950s – finance continued to be taught as a descriptive, institutional subject, viewed more from the standpoint of an outsider rather than from that of a manager
n Late 1950s – focus shifted to managerial decisions regarding the choice of assets and liabilities with the goal of maximizing the value of the firm
n 1990s to date – focus on value maximization continued but two trends have become increasingly important: the globalization of business and the increased use of information technology

Capital Budgeting Techniquesn Net present value (NPV) - each potential
project's value is estimated using a discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation, to find its NPV
n Profitability index (PI) -identifies the relationship of investment to payoff of a proposed project
n Internal rate of return (IRR) - defined as the discount rate that gives a net present value of zero. It is a commonly used measure of investment efficiency.WAIFEM

Capital Budgeting Techniques (cont’d)
n Modified internal rate of return - is a financial measure used to determine the attractiveness of an investment. It is generally used as part of a capital budgeting process to rank various alternative choices
n Equivalent annuity - expresses the NPV as an annualized cash flow by dividing it by the present value of the annuity factor. It is often used when assessing only the costs of specific projects that have the same cash inflows. WAIFEM

Project Ranking
n The real value of capital budgeting is to rank projects. Most organizations have many projects that could potentially be financially rewarding. Once it has been determined that a particular project has exceeded its hurdle, then it should be ranked against peer projects. The highest ranking projects should be implemented until the budgeted capital has been expended.WAIFEM

Capital Structure
n Capital structure refers to the way a company finances its assets through some combination of equity, debt, or hybrid securities. A firm's capital structure is then the composition or 'structure' of its liabilities.

Capital Structure in a perfect market
n Assume a perfect capital market (no transaction or bankruptcy costs; perfect information); firms and individuals can borrow at the same interest rate; no taxes; and investment decisions aren't affected by financing decisions.

Capital structure in real world
n If capital structure is irrelevant in a perfect market, then imperfections which exist in the real world must be the cause of its relevance

Working Capital Decision
n These are decisions involving managing the relationship between a firm's short-term assets and its short-term liabilities. The goal of working capital management is to ensure that the firm is able to continue its operations and that it has sufficient cash flow to satisfy both maturing short-term debt and upcoming operational expenses.

Working capital managementn Cash management. Identify the cash balance
which allows for the business to meet day to day expenses, but reduces cash holding costs.
n Inventory management. Identify the level of inventory which allows for uninterrupted production but reduces the investment in raw materials - and minimizes reordering costs -and hence increases cash flow;

Working capital management
n Debtors management. Identify the appropriate credit policy, i.e. credit terms which will attract customers, such that any impact on cash flows and the cash conversion cycle will be offset by increased revenue and hence Return on Capital (or vice versa).

Working capital management
n Short term financing. Identify the appropriate source of financing, given the cash conversion cycle: the inventory is ideally financed by credit granted by the supplier; however, it may be necessary to utilize a bank loan (or overdraft), or to "convert debtors to cash" through "factoring".
