...Paper P4 is the advanced financial MANAGEMENT paper at the Professional level. It follows on from Paper F9 at the Fundamentals level. As throughout the ACCA syllabus, the Fundamentals paper covers the main technical areas that all accountants are required to master, whereas the Professional paper builds on that knowledge and explores advanced skills and techniques. In particular Paper P4 expects candidates to have more depth of knowledge, better analytical skills, and to be able to exercise greater professional judgement than at Paper F9. Hence, instead of being asked to value a bond, a potential Paper F9 question, candidates will need to be able to recognise the need to calculate a bond value given the scenario. For instance candidates may be required to evaluate the potential gain to the shareholders of a target company, of various offers from a predator company. If one of these offers includes bonds then the value of the bonds will need to be calculated, unless of course it is given in the question. Another key distinction between Paper F9 and Paper P4 is that in general the scenarios that candidates will be faced with will refer to larger, more complex and more international organisations. A calculative example of this is the need to be able to appraise projects carried out overseas whereas a discursive example is the need to be able to discuss the role of key international organisations such as the International Monetary Fund. ------------------------------------------------- ...

...M&M Proposition 1 The Modigliani-Miller theorem forms the basis of modern thinking on capital structure. The theorem states that under a certain market price process, in the absence of taxes, bankruptcy cists, agency costs and asymmetric information, an in an efficient market, the value of a firm is unaffected by how the firm is financed. Whether the firm’s capital is raised by issuing stock or selling debt does not affect the value of the firm. This theory is also referred to as the capital structure irrelevance principle, which we have already looked at in previous seminar discussions. There are two propositions which were discussed by Modigliani and Miller. The first proposition states that the value if a firm does not depend on its capital structure. An example would be if two firms with the same business operations and similar kind of assets, where to be assessed after using either stocks or debt to finance the firm of s. On the left side their balance sheets, these firms will look the same, only difference being the right side, i.e. the liabilities and how they finance business activities. M&M proposition 1 therefore says that how the debt and equity is structured in a corporation is irrelevant as the value of the firm is determined by real assets and not its capital structure. Implications of this proposition firstly revolve around the issue of changing capital structure. Assuming that the three conditions identified by M&M apply and considering a company...

...Ch. 14. An overview of Corporate Finance. 14.1 Cash for investments is generated mostly (USA: 80%) internally as depreciation and retained earnings. Still, companies have a gap between cash they need and cash they generate internally. This gap is financial deficit. So companies have to either sell new equity or borrow.This causes two different kinds of problems: 1) The plow back ratio? => Dividend policy 2) The proportions of debt and issue of equity? => Debt policy. • Net stock issue is negative = Company repurchases more stocks than issues them. Reasons for internally generated funds: a) avoid cost of issuing securities b) investors don’t get the message from lower future profits and higher risk. Recent years firms have issued more debt than equity. Still, there are many ways to calculate the Debt ratio of company: 1) Debt / total assets = ( Short + long term debt ) / Total assets, or 2) Proportion of debt in long term financing) = Long term liabilities Long term liabilities + stockholders’ equity The Debt Ratios has risen since 1950 because of the book value of the corporate assets falls as behind the actual value of those assets. This is caused the inflation. And the new tools for risk management have...

...FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT- 12MBA25 FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT 12MBA25 VTU SECOND SEMESTER FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT- 12MBA25 MODULE -1 FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT Financial management is an academic discipline which is concerned with decision-making. This decision is concerned with the size and composition of assets and the level and structure of financing. In order to make right decision, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the objectives. Such an objective provides a framework for right kind of financial decision making. The objectives are concerned with designing a method of operating the Internal Investment and financing of a firm. There are two widely applied approaches, viz. (a) profit maximization and (b) wealth maximization. The term 'objective' is used in the sense of an object, a goal or decision criterion. The three decisions - Investment decision, financing decision and dividend policy decision are guided by the objective. Therefore, what is relevant - is not the overall objective but an operationally useful criterion: It should also be noted that the term objective provides a normative framework. Therefore, a firm should try to achieve and on policies which should be followed so that certain goals are to be achieved. It should be noted that the firms do not necessarily follow them. Profit Maximization as a Decision Criterion Profit maximization is considered as the goal of financial management. In this approach, actions that Increase profits should be undertaken and...

...security earns 5%, then in one year we will receive $1,050. Thus: NPV = C0 + [C1/(1 + r)] = −$1000 + ($1050/1.05) = 0 This is not a surprising result because 5 percent is the opportunity cost of capital, i.e., 5 percent is the return available in the capital market. If any investment earns a rate of return equal to the opportunity cost of capital, the NPV of that investment is zero. NPV = −$1,300,000 + ($1,500,000/1.10) = +$63,636 Since the NPV is positive, you would construct the motel. Alternatively, we can compute r as follows: r = ($1,500,000/$1,300,000) – 1 = 0.1539 = 15.39% Since the rate of return is greater than the cost of capital, you would construct the motel. 3. Investment (1) NPV Return 2. − 10,000 + 18,000 = $5,000 1.20 18,000 − 10,000 = 0.80 = 80.0% 10,000 9,000 − 5,000 = 0.80 = 80.0% 5,000 5,700 − 5,000 = 0.14 = 14.0% 5,000 4,000 − 2,000 = 1.00 = 100.0% 2,000 (2) − 5,000 + 9,000 = $2,500 1.20 5,700 = −$250 1.20 4,000 = $1,333.33 1.20 (3) − 5,000 + (4) − 2,000 + a. b.

...GAINESBORO MACHINE TOOLS CORPORATION Teaching Note Synopsis and Objectives Other cases in which dividend policy is an important issue: “Deutsche Brauerei,” (Case 11) In mid September 2005, Ashley Swenson, the chief financial officer (CFO) of a large computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) equipment manufacturer needed to decide whether to pay out dividends to the firm’s shareholders, or to repurchase stock. If Swenson chose to pay out dividends, she would have to also decide upon the magnitude of the payout. A subsidiary question is whether the firm should embark on a campaign of corporate-image advertising, and change its corporate name to reflect its new outlook. The case serves as an omnibus review of the many practical aspects of the dividend and share buyback decisions, including (1) signaling effects, (2) clientele effects, and (3) the finance and investment implications of increasing dividend payouts and share repurchase decisions. This case can follow a treatment of the Miller-Modigliani dividend-irrelevance theorem and serves to highlight practical considerations to consider when setting a firm’s dividend policy. Suggested Questions for Advance Assignment to Students The instructor could assign supplemental reading on dividend policy and share repurchases. Especially recommended are the Asquith and Mullins article on equity signaling, and articles by Stern Stewart on financial communication. 1. In theory, to fund an increased...
