1.1. What is Corporate Finance?

Slide 1.4 1.1 What Is Corporate Finance?

Corporate finance addresses several important questions:

1. In what long-term assets should the firm invest? (Capital
budgeting)
2. How should the firm raise funds for required capital expenditures?
(Capital structure)
3. How should short-term operating cash flows be managed? (Net
working capital)

A. The Balance Sheet Model of the Firm

Slide 1.5 The Balance Sheet Model of the Firm

The Balance Sheet presents a picture of the firm at a point in time,
and it provides a model by which to address the three basic
questions that corporate finance managers must answer.

Slide 1.6 The Capital Budgeting Decision

1. Long-term investment decisions determine the level of
fixed assets.

Slide 1.7 The Capital Structure Decision
2. Financing policy determines the liabilities and equity side
of the balance sheet.

Slide 1.8 Short-Term Asset Management

3. Short-term asset management choices (e.g., conservative
versus aggressive) affect the level of net working capital.

B. The Financial Manager

Slide 1.9 The Financial Manager

, Chapter 01 - Introduction to Corporate Finance


Financial Managers should make decisions that increase firm
value, which effectively involves three primary categories of
financial decisions.

1. Capital budgeting – process of planning and managing a
firm‘s investments in fixed assets. The key concerns are the
size, timing, and risk of future cash flows.

2. Capital structure – mix of debt (borrowing) and equity
(ownership interest) used by a firm. What are the least
expensive sources of funds? Is there an optimal mix of debt
and equity? When and where should the firm raise funds?

3. Working capital management – managing short-term assets
and liabilities. How much inventory should the firm carry?
What credit policy is best? Where will we get our short-
term loans?

These broad categories, however, can be summarized with two
concrete responsibilities:

a. Selecting value creating projects
b. Making smart financing decisions

Slide 1.10 Hypothetical Organization Chart
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) or Vice-President of Finance
coordinates the activities of the treasurer and the controller.

The controller handles cost and financial accounting, taxes, and
information systems (i.e., data processing).

The treasurer handles cash and credit management, financial
planning, and capital expenditures.

Video Note: The Role of the Chief Financial Officer - This video
looks at the changing role of the CFO.
