Discussion Questions IIll
1-1 What effect did the recession of 2007-2009 have on government regulation?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
It was greatly increased.
IIll IIll IIll
1-2 What advantages does a sole proprietorship offer? What is a major drawback of this
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
type of organization?
IIll IIll IIll
A sole proprietorship offers the advantage of simplicity of decision making and low
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
organizational and operating costs. A major drawback is that there is unlimited liability
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
to the owner.
IIll IIll IIll
1-3 What form of partnership allows some of the investors to limit their liability?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
Explain briefly.
IIll IIll
A limited partnership allows some of the partners to limit their liability. Under this
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
arrangement, one or more partners are designated general partners and have
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
unlimited liability for the debts of the firm; other partners are designated limited
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
partners and are liable only for their initial contribution. The limited partners are
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
normally prohibited from being active in the management of the firm.
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
1-4 In a corporation, what group has the ultimate responsibility for protecting and
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
managing the stockholders’ interests?
IIll IIll IIll IIll
The board of directors.
IIll IIll IIll
1-5 What document is necessary to form a corporation?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
The articles of incorporation.
IIll IIll IIll
1-6 What issue does agency theory examine? Why is it important in a public
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
corporation rather than in a private corporation?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
, Agency theory examines the relationship between the owners of the firm and the
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
managers of the firm. In privately owned firms, management and the owners are
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
usually the same people. Management operates the firm to satisfy its own goals, needs,
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
financial requirements and the like. As a company moves from private to public
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
ownership, management now represents all owners. This places management in the
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
agency position of making decisions in the best interest of all shareholders.
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
1-7 What are institutional investors important in today’s business world?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
Because institutional investors such as pension funds and mutual funds own a large
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
percentage of major U.S. companies, they are having more to say about the way
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
publicly owned companies are managed. As a group, they have the ability to vote
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
large blocks of shares for the election of a board of directors, which is supposed to run
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
the company in an efficient, competitive manner. The threat of being able to replace
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
poor performing boards of directors makes institutional investors quite influential.
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
Since these institutions, like pension funds and mutual funds, represent individual
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
workers and investors, they have a responsibility to see that the firm is managed in an
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
efficient and ethical way.
IIll IIll IIll IIll
1-8 Why is profit maximization, by itself, an inappropriate goal? What is meant by the
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
goal of maximization of shareholder wealth?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
The problem with a profit maximization goal is that it fails to take account of risk,
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
the timing of the benefits is not considered, and profit measurement is a very inexact
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
process. The goal of shareholders’ wealth maximization implies that the firm will
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
attempt to achieve the highest possible total valuation in the marketplace. It is the
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
one overriding objective of the firm and should influence every decision.
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
1-9 When does insider trading occur? What government agency is responsible for
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
protecting against the unethical practice of insider trading?
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
Insider trading occurs when anyone with non-public information buys or sells
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
securities to take advantage of that private information. The Securities and Exchange
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
Commission is responsible for protecting markets against insider trading. In the past,
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
people have gone to jail for trading on non-public information. This has included
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
company officers, investment bankers, printers who have information before it is
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
published, and even truck drivers who deliver business magazines and read positive
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
or negative articles about a company before the magazine is on the newsstands and
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
then place trades or have friends place trades based on that information. The SEC
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
has prosecuted anyone who profits from inside information.
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
1-10 In terms of the life of the securities offered, what is the difference between money
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
and capital markets?
IIll IIll IIll
Money markets refer to those markets dealing with short-term securities that have a
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
life of one year or less. Capital markets refer to securities with a life of more than
IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll IIll
one year.
