The Modern phase The modern phase is characterised by the application of economic theories and the application of quantitative methods of analysis. The distinctive features of the modern phase are: Changes in macro economic situation that has broadened the scope of financial management. The core focus is how on the rational matching of funds to their uses in the light of the decision criteria. The advances in mathematics and statistics have been applied to financial management specially in the areas of financial modelling, demand forecasting and risk analysis.
Three major functions of financial decision Investment decision Financing decision Dividend decision Investment decision The firm has scarce resources that must be allocated among competing uses. On the one hand the funds may be used to create additional capacity which in turn generates additional revenue and profits Class Notes Page 5
Return Maximization The second goal of financial management is to safeguard the economic interest of the persons who are directly or indirectly connected with the company, i.e.,shareholders, creditors and employees. All such interested parties must get the maximum return for their contributions. But this is possible only when the company earns higher profits or sufficient profits to discharge its obligations to them. Therefore, the goal of maximization of returns are inter-related. Wealth maximization Frequently, Maximization of profits is regarded a the proper objective of the firm but it is not as inclusive a goal as that of maximising its value to its shareholders. Value is represented by the market price of the ordinary share of the company over the long run which is certainly a reflection of company's investment and financing decisions. The log run means a considerably long period in order to work out a normalized market price. The management can make decision to maximize the value of its shares on the basis of day-today fluctuations in the market price in order to raise the market price of shares over the short run at the expense of the long run by temporarily diverting some of its funds to some other accounts or by cutting some of its expenditure to the minimum at the cost of future profits. This does not reflect the true worth of the share because it will result in the fall of the share price in the market in the long run. It is, therefore, the goal of the financial management to ensure its shareholders that the value of their shares will be maximized in the long-run. In fact, the performances of the company can well be evaluated by the value of its share. PROFIT VS WEALTH MAXIMIZATION Profit Maximization Main aim of any kind of economic activity is earning profit. A business concern is also functioning mainly for the purpose of earning profit. Profit is the measuring techniques to understand the business efficiency of the concern. Profit maximization is also the traditional and narrow approach, which aims at, maximizes the profit of the concern. Profit maximization consists of the following important features. Profit maximization is also called as cashing per share maximization. It leads to maximize the business operation for profit maximization. Ultimate aim of the business concern is earning profit, hence, it considers all the possible ways to increase the profitability of the concern. Profit is the parameter of measuring the efficiency of the business concern. So it shows the entire position of the business concern. Profit maximization objectives help to reduce the risk of the business. Favourable Arguments for Profit Maximization The following important points are in support of the profit maximization objectives of the business concern: (i) Main aim is earning profit. (ii) Profit is the parameter of the business operation. (iii) Profit reduces risk of the business concern. (iv) Profit is the main source of finance. (v) Profitability meets the social needs also.

Date: 13.03.2012 Working note: 1. As payment for material is made in the month following the purchase, there is no payment for material in January, in February, material payment is calculated as 900units x 16 =14600, and in the same manner for the following months. 2. Cash sale as for January 900x 80 x 1/3=240000, and in the same for the other months. 3. Receipt form debtor is calculated as for January that is nil, because cash is collected month of the sale. 4. For February it is calculated as 900 x 80x 2/3= 48 000 and so on for the following months. NOTES: 1. Profit should be ignored while calculating working capital requirement for the following reasons; Profit may or may not be used as working capital Even if profits are to be used for Working Capital it has to be reduced by the amount of income tax, drawing , dividend paid, etc. 2. Calculation of work in progress depends upon to its degree of completion as regards to material, labour and overhead. However, if nothing is given in the question as regard to the degree of completion we suggest to take 100% cost of material, labour as well as over heads. Because in such a case the average period of work in progress must have been calculated as equivalent period of completed units. But some authers shave assumed in such a case, 100% consumption if raw material and 50% (1/2 on an average) in case of labour and over heads. 3. Calculation of stock of finished goods and debtors should be made at cost unless otherwise asked in the question. Q11. From the following information we are required to estimate the net working requirement: Cost per unit: (in Rs) Raw material= 400 Direct Labour = 150 Overhead (excluding depreciation)= 300 Total Cost=850 Additional information 1. Selling price=Rs. 1000/unit 2. O/P=Rs. 52000 units /annum 3. Raw material in stock= Average 4 weeks 4. Work in progress= (Assume 50% completion stage with 100% material consumption= Average 2 weeks 5. Finished goods in stock = Average 4 weeks 6. Credit allowed by supplier= Average 4 weeks 7. Credit allowed to debtor= Average 8 week 8. Cash at bank is expected= Rs. 50,000

Chapter 2 Working Capital management Date: 13.03.2012 Financing of working capital The working capital financing g policy of a firm is mainly concerned with the determination of a suitable mix between the long term and short term sources of finance. Usually this mix is guided by a. Trade-off between risk and return b. The cost of alternative combinations of short term and long term sources Approaches to working capital finance policy: a. Matching or hedging approach: With reference to financing policies, the term hedging refers to a process, of matching maturity of debt with the maturity of financial needs. Here, the effort is to match the life of assets with the term source of funds. Thus, this approach is also known as matching approach. b. The comparative approach: Under this approach, as far as possible investment in current assets should be financed by funds from long term sources. And the short term sources should be used only for emergency requirements. The unique features of this approach are 1. Liquidity is relatively greater 2. Risk is minimised 3. Cost of financing is relatively more c. The aggressive approach: this approach states that a major part of the total current asset requirements should be financed from short term sources and even a part of its asset requirement should be financed from short term sources. The aggressive approach makes finance mix more risky, less costly and more profitable. Comparative study of financial approach Financing Approach Cost Profitablity Risk Hedging Moderate Moderate Moderate Conservative High Low Low Aggressive Low High High Q1. The following is the summary of balance sheet of xyz co. under the three approaches Policy Hedging Conservative Aggressive Liabilities Current Liabilities 20,000 10,000 30,000 Long term loans 20,000 30,000 10,000 Equity 60,000 60,000 60,000 Total 100,000 100,000 100,000 Assets Current assets a) Permanent 25,000 25,000 25,000 Requirement b) Seasonal 20,000 20,000 20,000 Requirement Fixed Assets 55,000 55,000 55,000 Total 100,000 100,000 100,000 Additional information: 1.

The lager the net working capital, the lesser the risk is. The newt working capital is comparatively larger in conservative approach and the hence the degree of risk is low. The net working capital is comparatively lower in aggressive approach and hence the degree of risk is high. Risk is measured by the amount of net working capital.
