Option C is the correct answer. There is no mention of borrowed funds
If it is assumed that the company operates with equity only, it can be concluded that it
is not exposed to interest rate risk because there is no borrowed funds in place.
Unforturnately such information was not provided or clearly presented. Most students
argued that the company is exposed to all of the above mention risks. We gave all
students a mark for this question.

accounting, financial management and treasury management?
a. Financial managers devote most of their time to collecting and presenting

c. The difference between treasury management and accounting lies in the level
of decision-making.
d. Accountants analyse financial statements, develop more relevant information,

The correct statement is B.
Financial managers analyse financial statements, develop more relevant information
and, given the findings, they make final decisions on how the business should be
financed and operated. This justify why statements A and D are incorrect. Statement
C is also incorrect because the difference between treasury management and
accounting lies in the level of activity not decision-making. This leave statement B to
be the only correct option.
