... MANAGING FINANCIAL RESOURSES AND DECISIONS MAKING UNIT NUMBER: UNIT 2 QFC LEVEL: LEVEL 5 ASSESSMENT TASK 1 Eight (8) sources of finance available to a business and for each source; assess its implications (financial, legal, dilution of control and bankruptcy). Sources of finances can be divided into two namely, internal and external finance. Internal finance refers to the funds or financial resources that are within easy reach of business owner i.e. owner has control over resources. BBC (2013) Examples of Internal finance include personal finance and retained earnings/profit. Personal/Owner’s Finance comprises of financial resources such as personal savings, current or fixed assets used by the owner to raise funds for a business project. Most of the resources are either in cash or inconvertible to cash, with the exception of fixed assets such as equipment that can be difficult to convert for usage immediately. Houston Chronicle (2013) The advantage of using personal finance is that the business owner does not need to worry about paying interest rates or meeting deadlines for repayment. Also, as stated above the owner benefits from having autonomy to make decisions on how to run the business i.e. having full control of the business and its resources with no interest rate needed.

...administrators of the business. For a business to succeed, managers are assigned different functions in the most vital departments of the business (Cook & Macaulay, 2013). These departments include human resource, finance, marketing and, operations. The departments oversee the critical segments of the business allowing the business to run smoothly with the help of managers who have specified roles for each department. The roles of the managers in each department are unique considering the difference in the requirements and activities of the departments. The functional areas of a business are run by managers who are responsible for all activities and provide reports to the main governing body of the business. The role of managers in all functional areas of the business is critical for the success of the business (Cook & Macaulay, 2013).. The human resource of the business is an important department because it deals one-on-one with employees of the organization. The purpose of human resource is essentially to reinforce the relationship of employees and their employers. The manager is therefore expected to foster the goal of human resource in a business (Suttle, 2014). The manger is responsible for the competence of all employees of the business. The role of a manger in the human resources department ensures competence of employees through recruiting and training able persons for the vacancies in the business. The manager ensures that all needs of employees in terms of compensation...

... Reference: BTEC Group B Subject: How managing the resources of the organisation and effective budgetary control can improve the performance of a business. Introduction: In this report I will be speaking about how managing the resources of an organisation and effective budgetary control can lead to improved performance of a business. Findings/ Main Body: As I have talked about with you before, managing the resources of an organisation and looking closely at its budgetary control is absolutely vital in business. It improves performance over every department and gives the business management team a clear view on where they can expand and develop in the future. Every public limited company that allows people to buy shares within their business must publish their accounts so that investors can see how well they are doing and judge whether or not to buy their shares on the stock exchange. All the top dog companies have a clear view on their resources and budgets; this is evident from Tesco who have lists of all their resources and a clear cash flow all on one financial statement. They made profits of over £2 billion in 2005 and this tells us that managing budgets and resources well really does improve businesses performance. Managing resources of an organisation improves performance as it gives more cash flow, providing you cut back on unnecessary resources; this gives more to re-invest or to pay off liabilities. E.g. If John Lewis...

Desai HISTORICALLY, the finance functions in large U.S. and European firms have focused on cost control, operating budgets, and internal auditing. But as corporations go global, a world of finance opens up within them, presenting new opportunities and challenges for CFOs. Rather than simply make aggregate capital-structure and dividend decisions, for example, they also have to wrestle with the capital structure and profit repatriation policies of their companies’ subsidiaries. Capital budgeting decisions and valuation must reflect not only divisional differences but also the complications introduced by currency, tax, and country risks. Incentive systems need to measure and reward managers operating in various economic and financial settings. The existence of what amounts to internal markets for capital gives global corporations a powerful mechanism for arbitrage across national financial markets...
