b. Capital expenditure means investment in real assets. Financing means rais

ing the cashfor this investment.

c. The shares of public corporations are traded on stock exchanges and can
t t t t t t t t t t t t


be purchasedby a wide range of investors. The shares of closely held corp

orations are not publicly traded and are held by a small group of private i

nvestors.

d. Unlimited liability: Investors are responsible for all the firm‘s debts. A sole

proprietor hasunlimited liability. Investors in corporations have limited lia

bility. They can lose their investment, but no more.

5. Separation of ownership facilitates the key attributes of a corporation, including l
t t t t t t t t t t t


imited liability forinvestors, transferability of ownership, a separate legal person
t t t t t t t t t t


ality of the corporation, and delegated centralized management. These four attri
t t t t t t t t t t


butes provide substantial benefit for investors, including the ability to diversify th
t t t t t t t t t t t


eir investment among many uncorrelated returns—
t t t t t


a very valuable tool explored in later chapters. Also, these attributes allow invest
t t t t t t t t t t t t


ors to quickly exit,enter, or short sell an investment, thereby generating an active li
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


quid market for corporations.
t t t




However, these positive aspects also introduce substantial negative externalities
t t t t t t t t t


as well. The separation of ownership from management typically leads to agency
t t t t t t t t t t t t


problems, where managersprefer to consume private perks or make other decisio
t t t t t t t t t t t


ns for their private benefit—
t t t t


rather than maximize shareholder wealth. Shareholders tend to exercise less over
t t t t t t t t t t


sight of each individual investment as their diversification increases. Finally, the cor
t t t t t t t t t t t


poration‘s separate legal personalitymakes it difficult to enforce accountability if
t t t t t t t t t t t


they externalize costs onto society.

6. Shareholders will only vote to maximize shareholder wealth. Shareholders ca t t t t t t t t t


n modify their pattern of consumption through borrowing and lending, match ri
t t t t t t t t t t t


sk preferences, and hopefullybalance their own checkbooks (or hire a qualifie
t t t t t t t t t t t


d professional to help them with these tasks).

9. Managers would act in shareholders‘ interests because they have a legal duty to a

bonuses, stock, and option payouts with value tied (roughly) to firm performance.

Managers may fear personal reputational damage from not acting in shareholde

rs‘ interests. And managers can be fired by the board of directors (electedby share
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t


holders). If managers still fail to act in shareholders‘ interests, shareholders may se
t t t t t t t t t t t t


ll their shares, lowering the stock price and potentially creating the possibility of a t

akeover, which can again lead to changes in the board of directors and senior man
