Goal of the Firm: Maximize Profit???
•Profit maximization fails to account for differences in the level
of cash flows (as opposed to profits), the timing of these cash
flows, and the risk of these cash flows.

Goal of the Firm:
Maximize Shareholder Wealth!!!

•Because maximizing shareholder wealth properly considers cash
flows, the timing of these cash flows, and the risk of these cash flows.
•This can be illustrated using the following simple stock valuation
equation:

Goal of the Firm:
What About Other Stakeholders?
•Stakeholders include all groups of individuals who
have a direct economic link to the firm including
employees, customers, suppliers, creditors, owners, and
others who have a direct economic link to the firm.
•The "Stakeholder View" prescribes that the firm make a
conscious effort to avoid actions that could be
detrimental to the wealth position of its stakeholders.
•Such a view is considered to be "socially responsible."

The Managerial Finance Function:
Relationship to Economics
•The field of finance is actually an outgrowth of
economics.
•In fact, finance is sometimes referred to as
financial economics.
•Financial managers must understand the
economic framework within which they operate
in order to react or anticipate to changes in
conditions.

16. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-16
The Managerial Finance Function:
Relationship to Economics (cont.)
•The primary economic principal used by
financial managers is marginal cost-benefit
analysis which says that financial decisions
should be implemented only when added
benefits exceed added costs.

17. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-17
The Managerial Finance Function:
Relationship to Accounting
•The firm’s finance (treasurer) and accounting
(controller) functions are closely-related and
overlapping.
•In smaller firms, the financial manager generally
performs both functions.

18. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-18
The Managerial Finance Function:
Relationship to Accounting (cont.)
•One major difference in perspective and
emphasis between finance and accounting is that
accountants generally use the accrual method
while in finance, the focus is on cash flows.
•The significance of this difference can be
illustrated using the following simple example.

19. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-19
The Managerial Finance Function:
Relationship to Accounting (cont.)
•Finance and accounting also differ with respect to
decision-making.
•While accounting is primarily concerned with the
presentation of financial data, the financial manager is
primarily concerned with analyzing and interpreting
this information for decision-making purposes.
•The financial manager uses this data as a vital tool for
making decisions about the financial aspects of the
firm.

Financial Institutions & Markets
•Firms that require funds from external sources
can obtain them in three ways:
–through a bank or other financial institution
–through financial markets
–through private placements

23. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-23
Financial Institutions & Markets:
Financial Institutions
•Financial institutions are intermediaries that channel
the savings of individuals, businesses, and governments
into loans or investments.
•The key suppliers and demanders of funds are
individuals, businesses, and governments.
•In general, individuals are net suppliers of funds, while
businesses and governments are net demanders of
funds.

24. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-24
Financial Institutions & Markets:
Financial Markets
•Financial markets provide a forum in which suppliers
of funds and demanders of funds can transact business
directly.
•The two key financial markets are the money market
and the capital market.
•Transactions in short term marketable securities take
place in the money market while transactions in long-
term securities take place in the capital market.

25. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-25
Financial Institutions & Markets:
Financial Markets (cont.)
•Whether subsequently traded in the money or capital
market, securities are first issued through the primary
market.
•The primary market is the only one in which a
corporation or government is directly involved in and
receives the proceeds from the transaction.
•Once issued, securities then trade on the secondary
markets such as the New York Stock Exchange or
NASDAQ.

The Money Market
•The money market exists as a result of the interaction
between the suppliers and demanders of short-term
funds (those having a maturity of a year or less).
•Most money market transactions are made in
marketable securities which are short-term debt
instruments such as T-bills and commercial paper.
•Money market transactions can be executed directly or
through an intermediary.

28. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-28
The Money Market (cont.)
•The international equivalent of the domestic (U.S.)
money market is the Eurocurrency market.
•The Eurocurrency market is a market for short-term
bank deposits denominated in U.S. dollars or other
marketable currencies.
•The Eurocurrency market has grown rapidly mainly
because it is unregulated and because it meets the needs
of international borrowers and lenders.

29. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-29
The Capital Market
•The capital market is a market that enables suppliers and
demanders of long-term funds to make transactions.
•The key capital market securities are bonds (long-term debt) and
both common and preferred stock (equity).
•Bonds are long-term debt instruments used by businesses and
government to raise large sums of money or capital.
•Common stock are units of ownership interest or equity in a
corporation.

Broker Markets and Dealer Markets
•Broker markets consists of national and regional
securities exchanges, which are organizations that
provide a marketplace in which firms can raise funds
the sale of new securities and purchasers can resell
securities
•Dealer markets consist of both the Nasdaq market
and and the over-the-counter (OTC) market, where
the (unlisted) shares of smaller firm shares are sold
and traded.

31. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-31
•The key difference between broker and dealer markets is
a technical point dealing with the way trades are
executed.
•When a trade occurs in a broker market, buyers and
sellers are brought together and the trade takes place on
the floor of the exchange.
•In contrast, buyers and sellers are never actually brought
together in a dealer – transactions are executed by
securities dealers that make markets in certain securities.
Broker Markets and Dealer Markets
(continued)

32. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-32
•The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is the most
famous of all broker markets and accounts for about
60% of the value of shares traded in the U.S. stock
markets.
•Trading is conducted through an auction process where
specialists “make a market” in selected securities.
•As compensation for executing orders, specialists make
money on the spread (bid price – ask price).
Broker Markets and Dealer Markets

33. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-33
•The over-the-counter (OTC) market is an intangible
market for securities transactions.
•Unlike organized exchanges, the OTC is both a
primary market and a secondary market.
•The OTC is a computer-based market where dealers
make a market in selected securities and are linked to
buyers and sellers through the NASDAQ System.
•Dealers also make money on the “spread.”

International Capital Markets
•In the Eurobond market, corporations and
governments typically issue bonds denominated in
dollars and sell them to investors located outside the
United States.
•The foreign bond market is a market for foreign
bonds, which are bonds issued by a foreign corporation
or government that is denominated in the investor’s
home currency and sold in the investor’s home market.

International Capital Markets (cont.)
•Finally, the international equity market allows
corporations to sell blocks of shares to investors
in a number of different countries
simultaneously.
•This market enables corporations to raise far
larger amounts of capital than they could raise in
any single national market.

Business Taxes
•Both individuals and businesses must pay taxes
on income.
•The income of sole proprietorships and partnerships is taxed as
the income of the individual owners, whereas corporate income
is subject to corporate taxes.
•Both individuals and businesses can earn two types of income—
ordinary income and capital gains income.
•Under current law, tax treatment of ordinary income and capital
gains income change frequently due frequently changing tax
laws.

Example
Calculate federal income taxes due if taxable income is $80,000.
Tax = .15 ($50,000) + .25 ($25,000) + .34 ($80,000 - $75,000)
Tax = $15,450
Business Taxes: Ordinary Income
•Ordinary income is earned through the sale of a
firm’s goods or services and is taxed at the rates
depicted in Table 1.4 on the following slide.

Example
What is the marginal and average tax rate for the previous example?
Marginal Tax Rate = 34%
Average Tax Rate = $15,450/$80,000 = 19.31%
Business Taxation:
Average & Marginal Tax Rates
•A firm’s marginal tax rate represents the rate
at which additional income is taxed.
•The average tax rate is the firm’s taxes divided
by taxable income.

41. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-41
Business Taxation:
Tax on Interest & Dividend Income
•For corporations only, 70% of all dividend income
received from an investment in the stock of another
corporation in which the firm has less than 20%
ownership is excluded from taxation.
•This exclusion is provided to avoid triple taxation for
corporations.
•Unlike dividend income, all interest income received
is fully taxed.

42. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-42
Example
Two companies, Debt Co. and No Debt Co., both
expect in the coming year to have EBIT of $200,000.
During the year, Debt Co. will have to pay $30,000 in
interest expenses. No Debt Co. has no debt and will
pay not interest expenses.
Business Taxation (Tax Deductibility):
Debt versus Equity Financing
•In calculating taxes, corporations may deduct operating expenses
and interest expense but not dividends paid.
•This creates a built-in tax advantage for using debt financing as
the following example will demonstrate.

Debt versus Equity Financing (cont.)

44. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 1-44
•As the example shows, the use of debt financing can
increase cash flow and EPS, and decrease taxes paid.
•The tax deductibility of interest and other certain
expenses reduces their actual (after-tax) cost to the
profitable firm.
•It is the non-deductibility of dividends paid that results
in double taxation under the corporate form of
organization.

Business Taxation: Capital Gains
•A capital gain results when a firm sells an asset such
as a stock held as an investment for more than its initial
purchase price.
•The difference between the sales price and the purchase
price is called a capital gain.
•For corporations, capital gains are added to ordinary
income and taxed like ordinary income at the firm’s
marginal tax rate.
