DEBT vs. EQUITY
Debt vs. equity financing is one of the most important decisions facing managers who need capital to fund their business operations. Debt and equity are the two main sources of capital available to businesses, and each offers both advantages and disadvantages. "Absolutely nothing is more important to a new business than raising capital," Steve Jefferson wrote in Pacific Business News (Jefferson, 2001). "But the way that money is raised can have an enormous impact on the success of a business."
DEBT FINANCING
Debt financing takes the form of loans that must be repaid over time, usually with interest. Businesses can borrow money over the short term (less than one year) or long term (more than one year). The main sources of debt financing are banks and government agencies, such as the Small Business Administration (SBA). Debt financing offers businesses a tax advantage, because the interest paid on loans is generally deductible. Borrowing also limits the business's future obligation of repayment of the loan, because the lender does not receive an ownership share in the business.
However, debt financing also has its disadvantages. New businesses sometimes find it difficult to make regular loan payments when they have irregular cash flow. In this way, debt financing can leave businesses vulnerable to economic downturns or interest rate hikes. Carrying too much debt is a problem because it increases the perceived risk associated with businesses, making them unattractive to investors and thus reducing their ability to raise additional capital in the future.

EQUITY FINANCING
Equity financing takes the form of money obtained from investors in exchange for an ownership share in the business. Such funds may come from friends and family members of the business owner, wealthy "angel" investors, or venture

“a Drop of Life: Inside the Mounting Water Crisis.”

...JOURNAL ASSIGNMENT Student's name: XX Name of Guest Speaker: Shalini Kantayya Date of lecture: 1st October 2013 Topic of lecture: “A Drop of Life: Inside the Mounting Water Crisis.” The lecture by Shalini Kantayya (“SH”) highlighted the concerns over the water crisis as it is today, mainly water as a scarce/limited supply resource not being consumed efficiently, the hazards to health with the presence of dangerous chemicals in water, the difficulty faced by under-developed/ developing nations in obtaining drinking water and discussed the ethics of privatizing the supply of water - the ‘life-giving’ resource. One of the key messages of SH was that Water is Life and being such a precious resource it cannot be commodified. This was effectively conveyed through her film “A Drop of Life”, shown during the lecture. The film depicts the everyday ordeal faced by people in remote under-developed villages to obtain drinking water and how the privatization of the water supply through a prepaid system can lead to sanitation and health problems and even result to death. I also felt that it was no coincidence that the Supplier of prepaid water featured in the film is an American corporation, which to me deplore the fact that Americans seek to control the world and through water life on earth! SH also touched on many important facets of water utilization and management. I’m sure the lecture did stir the conscience of and prompt many of us to question whether we are consuming...

The designer in question was one Sabyasachi Mukherjee who is known for his aesthetics, eye for detail and a never-dying penchant for classics. And perhaps the only designer who stands among the spectators and watches his show. We weren't very surprised to see the ramp turned into a garden of an old mansion complete with hanging glass lamps, old portraits on the walls, a wealth of planters including cacti and empty wine bottles gathering dust. Theme: Titled 'Opium', the designer attempted to show an amalgamation of aesthetic sensibilities of the West and the East, for which he combined elements from his home state West Bengal with that of Rajasthan, Kashmir, Karnataka and then fused it with the lazy, flirtatious elegance of France. And the result was a line up of ensembles that bespoke subtlety and understated elegance. Collection and detailing: A lot of designers use bling and make it look bling, then how does Sabyasachi use bling and yet make it look classy? Every piece displayed was unique in its use of fabric, silhouettes and jewellery. The girls all had their hair tied in...

Snackuits was launched in January and is already available in North, West and East. Now Britannia is gearing to launch the product in South.   Talking about Snackuits, Shalini Degan, Category Director, Delight and Lifestyle, Britannia Industries said: “The truth is that people want to snack and then they feel guilty which leads them to snack some more, making them unhappy. We want our consumers to feel ‘Snack Happy’. The idea being that we know that people want to snack and we don’t want them to feel guilty about eating in between meals. We decided to make a product that satisfies some need of the consumers but fundamentally it removes guilt. So we have been telling people, please have this whenever you feel like and be snack happy.”   The highlight of the product is that it is baked and there is no ostensible calorie intake. In fact, healthy snacks have become a fad of sorts with many players joining the bandwagon and talking about health and nutrition such as Lays Baked, Aliva and even Nestle’s Maggi.   Not deterred by many players jumping into the health platform, Ms Degan said: “People like to follow Britannia.

Smartphones Effects

...Running Head: SMARTPHONES AND THEIR EFFECT ON OUR SOCIAL INTERACTIONS Smartphones and their Effect on our Social Interactions Ashley L****** NMCC Abstract We walk through this world with our heads down. Immersed in the technological realm, we disregard the real. We converse with our hands rather than our mouths, tapping keyboards and touchpads to the rhythm of our thoughts. This is the way we communicate in the 21st century. In the last decade, advances in information technologies have substantially altered the way humans interact. Between email, texting, social networking, instant messaging, and Skype, people now have the resources that would make it possible to spend days or months without coming face-to-face with another person, yet still remain connected with the world. I love my smartphone. I am in awe at just how much phones have advanced in the last 20 years. From the first one that was gigantic in size, then leading to a smaller simple flip phone to these beautiful, amazing slim pieces of hardware that can do more than I could have ever imagined a phone doing. Smartphones are something to be amazed with. Smartphones can certainly make our lives easier for us as we use them for everyday tasks such as communicating, checking our calendars, using as alarm clocks, as calculators, setting reminders and so much more. However, as smartphones keep advancing with new ways to make our lives easier, are they hindering our natural need for social...
