Financial Management, , 4, , SCOPE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, Financial management is one of the important parts of overall management, which is directly, related with various functional departments like personnel, marketing and production., Financial management covers wide area with multidimensional approaches. The following, are the important scope of financial management., 1. Financial Management and Economics, Economic concepts like micro and macroeconomics are directly applied with the, financial management approaches.

But nowaday’s financial management and accounting discipline are, separate and interrelated., 3. Financial Management or Mathematics, Modern approaches of the financial management applied large number of, mathematical and statistical tools and techniques. They are also called as, econometrics. Economic order quantity, discount factor, time value of money,, present value of money, cost of capital, capital structure theories, dividend theories,, ratio analysis and working capital analysis are used as mathematical and statistical, tools and techniques in the field of financial management., 4. Financial Management and Production Management, Production management is the operational part of the business concern, which, helps to multiple the money into profit. Profit of the concern depends upon the, production performance. Production performance needs finance, because, production department requires raw material, machinery, wages, operating expenses, etc. These expenditures are decided and estimated by the financial department, and the finance manager allocates the appropriate finance to production department., The financial manager must be aware of the operational process and finance, required for each process of production activities., 5. Financial Management and Marketing, Produced goods are sold in the market with innovative and modern approaches., For this, the marketing department needs finance to meet their requirements.

Introduction to Financial Management, , 5, , The financial manager or finance department is responsible to allocate the adequate, finance to the marketing department. Hence, marketing and financial management, are interrelated and depends on each other., 6. Financial Management and Human Resource, Financial management is also related with human resource department, which, provides manpower to all the functional areas of the management.

Wealth maximization., Wealth, Profit, , Objectives, , Fig. 1.2 Objectives of Financial Management, , Profit Maximization, Main aim of any kind of economic activity is earning profit. A business concern is also, functioning mainly for the purpose of earning profit. Profit is the measuring techniques to, understand the business efficiency of the concern. Profit maximization is also the traditional, and narrow approach, which aims at, maximizes the profit of the concern. Profit, maximization consists of the following important features., 1. Profit maximization is also called as cashing per share maximization. It leads to, maximize the business operation for profit maximization., 2. Ultimate aim of the business concern is earning profit, hence, it considers all the, possible ways to increase the profitability of the concern.
Page 22 :
Financial Management, , 6, , 3. Profit is the parameter of measuring the efficiency of the business concern., So it shows the entire position of the business concern., 4. Profit maximization objectives help to reduce the risk of the business., Favourable Arguments for Profit Maximization, The following important points are in support of the profit maximization objectives of the, business concern:, (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), , Main aim is earning profit., Profit is the parameter of the business operation., Profit reduces risk of the business concern., Profit is the main source of finance., Profitability meets the social needs also., , Unfavourable Arguments for Profit Maximization, The following important points are against the objectives of profit maximization:, (i) Profit maximization leads to exploiting workers and consumers., (ii) Profit maximization creates immoral practices such as corrupt practice, unfair, trade practice, etc., (iii) Profit maximization objectives leads to inequalities among the sake holders such, as customers, suppliers, public shareholders, etc., Drawbacks of Profit Maximization, Profit maximization objective consists of certain drawback also:, (i) It is vague: In this objective, profit is not defined precisely or correctly. It creates, some unnecessary opinion regarding earning habits of the business concern., (ii) It ignores the time value of money: Profit maximization does not consider the, time value of money or the net present value of the cash inflow. It leads certain, differences between the actual cash inflow and net present cash flow during a, particular period., (iii) It ignores risk: Profit maximization does not consider risk of the business, concern. Risks may be internal or external which will affect the overall operation, of the business concern., Wealth Maximization, Wealth maximization is one of the modern approaches, which involves latest innovations, and improvements in the field of the business concern. The term wealth means shareholder, wealth or the wealth of the persons those who are involved in the business concern., Wealth maximization is also known as value maximization or net present worth, maximization.

Page 23 :

Financial management is, not a revolutionary concept but an evolutionary.

Internal finance is also one of, the important sources of finance and it consists of cost of capital while compared to other, sources of finance., Internal source of finance may be broadly classified into two categories:, A. Depreciation Funds, B. Retained earnings, Depreciation Funds, Depreciation funds are the major part of internal sources of finance, which is used to meet, the working capital requirements of the business concern. Depreciation means decrease in, the value of asset due to wear and tear, lapse of time, obsolescence, exhaustion and accident., Generally depreciation is changed against fixed assets of the company at fixed rate for, every year. The purpose of depreciation is replacement of the assets after the expired, period. It is one kind of provision of fund, which is needed to reduce the tax burden and, overall profitability of the company., Retained Earnings, Retained earnings are another method of internal sources of finance. Actually is not a, method of raising finance, but it is called as accumulation of profits by a company for its, expansion and diversification activities., Retained earnings are called under different names such as; self finance, inter finance,, and plugging back of profits. According to the Companies Act 1956 certain percentage, as, prescribed by the central government (not exceeding 10%) of the net profits after tax of a
Page 52 :
Financial Management, , 36, , financial year have to be compulsorily transferred to reserve by a company before declaring, dividends for the year., Under the retained earnings sources of finance, a part of the total profits is transferred, to various reserves such as general reserve, replacement fund, reserve for repairs and, renewals, reserve funds and secrete reserves, etc., Advantages of Retained Earnings, Retained earnings consist of the following important advantages:, 1. Useful for expansion and diversification: Retained earnings are most useful, to expansion and diversification of the business activities., 2. Economical sources of finance: Retained earnings are one of the least costly, sources of finance since it does not involve any floatation cost as in the case of, raising of funds by issuing different types of securities., 3. No fixed obligation: If the companies use equity finance they have to pay, dividend and if the companies use debt finance, they have to pay interest. But, if the company uses retained earnings as sources of finance, they need not pay, any fixed obligation regarding the payment of dividend or interest., 4. Flexible sources: Retained earnings allow the financial structure to remain, completely flexible. The company need not raise loans for further requirements,, if it has retained earnings., 5. Increase the share value: When the company uses the retained earnings as the, sources of finance for their financial requirements, the cost of capital is very cheaper, than the other sources of finance; Hence the value of the share will increase., 6. Avoid excessive tax: Retained earnings provide opportunities for evasion of, excessive tax in a company when it has small number of shareholders., 7. Increase earning capacity: Retained earnings consist of least cost of capital and, also it is most suitable to those companies which go for diversification and expansion., Disadvantages of Retained Earnings, Retained earnings also have certain disadvantages:, 1. Misuses: The management by manipulating the value of the shares in the stock, market can misuse the retained earnings., 2. Leads to monopolies: Excessive use of retained earnings leads to monopolistic, attitude of the company., 3. Over capitalization: Retained earnings lead to over capitalization, because if the, company uses more and more retained earnings, it leads to insufficient source, of finance., 4. Tax evasion: Retained earnings lead to tax evasion. Since, the company reduces, tax burden through the retained earnings.
Page 53 :
Sources of Financing, , 37, , 5. Dissatisfaction: If the company uses retained earnings as sources of finance, the, shareholder can’t get more dividends. So, the shareholder does not like to use, the retained earnings as source of finance in all situations., , LOAN FINANCING, Loan financing is the important mode of finance raised by the company. Loan finance may, be divided into two types:, (a) Long-Term Sources, (b) Short-Term Sources, Loan finance can be raised through the following important institutions., Loan Financing Institutions, , Commercial Banks, , Short-term, Advance, , Long-term, Loans, , Development Banks, , Direct, Finance, , Indirect, Finance, , Specialist Institutions, , Domestic, Finance, , Foreign, Currency, Finance, , Fig. 3.1 Loan Financing, , Financial Institutions, With the effect of the industrial revaluation, the government established nation wide and, state wise financial industries to provide long-term financial assistance to industrial concerns, in the country. Financial institutions play a key role in the field of industrial development, and they are meeting the financial requirements of the business concern.

Page 54 :
Financial Management, , 38, , Short-term Loans, Commercial banks also provide loans to the business concern to meet the short-term, financial requirements. When a bank makes an advance in lump sum against some security, it is termed as loan. Loan may be in the following form:, (a) Cash credit: A cash credit is an arrangement by which a bank allows his customer, to borrow money up to certain limit against the security of the commodity., (b) Overdraft: Overdraft is an arrangement with a bank by which a current account, holder is allowed to withdraw more than the balance to his credit up to a certain, limit without any securities., Development Banks, Development banks were established mainly for the purpose of promotion and development, the industrial sector in the country. Presently, large number of development banks are, functioning with multidimensional activities. Development banks are also called as financial, institutions or statutory financial institutions or statutory non-banking institutions., Development banks provide two important types of finance:, (a) Direct Finance, (b) Indirect Finance/Refinance, Some of the important development banks are discussed in Chapter 11., Presently the commercial banks are providing all kinds of financial services including, development-banking services. And also nowadays development banks and specialisted, financial institutions are providing all kinds of financial services including commercial, banking services. Diversified and global financial services are unavoidable to the present, day economics. Hence, we can classify the financial institutions only by the structure and, set up and not by the services provided by them., , MODEL QUESTIONS, 1. Explain the various sources of financing., 2.

INTRODUCTION, Financial planning and decision play a major role in the field of financial management, which consists of the major area of financial management such as, capitalization, financial, structure, capital structure, leverage and financial forecasting., Financial planning includes the following important parts:, ● Estimating the amount of capital to be raised., ● Determining the form and proportionate amount of securities., ● Formulating policies to manage the financial plan., , MEANING OF CAPITAL, The term capital refers to the total investment of the company in terms of money, and, assets. It is also called as total wealth of the company. When the company is going to invest, large amount of finance into the business, it is called as capital. Capital is the initial and, integral part of new and existing business concern., The capital requirements of the business concern may be classified into two categories:, (a) Fixed capital, (b) Working capital., Fixed Capital, Fixed capital is the capital, which is needed for meeting the permanent or long-term purpose, of the business concern. Fixed capital is required mainly for the purpose of meeting capital, expenditure of the business concern and it is used over a long period. It is the amount, invested in various fixed or permanent assets, which are necessary for a business concern., Definition of Fixed Capital, According to the definition of Hoagland, “Fixed capital is comparatively easily defined to, include land, building, machinery and other assets having a relatively permanent existence”.

It may cross working capital and net working capital. Normally working, capital consists of various compositions of current assets such as inventories, bills, receivable,, debtors, cash, and bank balance and prepaid expenses., According to the definition of Bonneville, “any acquisition of funds which increases, the current assets increase the Working Capital also for they are one and the same”., Working capital is needed to meet the following purpose:, ● Purchase of raw material, ● Payment of wages to workers, ● Payment of day-to-day expenses, ● Maintenance expenditure etc., Working Capital, , Capital, , Fixed Capital, , Fig. 4.1 Position of Capital, , CAPITALIZATION, Capitalization is one of the most important parts of financial decision, which is related to the, total amount of capital employed in the business concern., Understanding the concept of capitalization leads to solve many problems in the field, of financial management. Because there is a confusion among the capital, capitalization, and capital structure., Meaning of Capitalization, Capitalization refers to the process of determining the quantum of funds that a firm needs, to run its business. Capitalization is only the par value of share capital and debenture and, it does not include reserve and surplus.
Page 59 :
Capitalization, , 43, , Definition of Capitalization, Capitalization can be defined by the various financial management experts. Some of the, definitions are mentioned below:, According to Guthman and Dougall, “capitalization is the sum of the par value of, stocks and bonds outstanding”., “Capitalization is the balance sheet value of stocks and bonds outstands”., — Bonneville and Dewey, According to Arhur. S. Dewing, “capitalization is the sum total of the par value of all, shares”., , TYPES OF CAPITALIZATION, Capitalization may be classified into the following three important types based on its nature:, • Over Capitalization, • Under Capitalization, • Water Capitalization, Over Capitalization, Over capitalization refers to the company which possesses an excess of capital in relation, to its activity level and requirements. In simple means, over capitalization is more capital, than actually required and the funds are not properly used., According to Bonneville, Dewey and Kelly, over capitalization means, “when a, business is unable to earn fair rate on its outstanding securities”., Example, A company is earning a sum of Rs. 50,000 and the rate of return expected is 10%. This, company will be said to be properly capitalized. Suppose the capital investment of the, company is Rs. 60,000, it will be over capitalization to the extent of Rs. 1,00,000. The new, rate of earning would be:, 50,000/60,000×100=8.33%, When the company has over capitalization, the rate of earnings will be reduced from, 10% to 8.33%., Causes of Over Capitalization, Over capitalization arise due to the following important causes:, • Over issue of capital by the company., • Borrowing large amount of capital at a higher rate of interest., • Providing inadequate depreciation to the fixed assets.
Page 60 :
Financial Management, , 44, , • Excessive payment for acquisition of goodwill., • High rate of taxation., • Under estimation of capitalization rate., Effects of Over Capitalization, Over capitalization leads to the following important effects:, •, •, •, •, •, , Reduce the rate of earning capacity of the shares., Difficulties in obtaining necessary capital to the business concern., It leads to fall in the market price of the shares., It creates problems on re-organization., It leads under or misutilisation of available resources., , Remedies for Over Capitalization, Over capitalization can be reduced with the help of effective management and systematic, design of the capital structure. The following are the major steps to reduce over capitalization., •, •, •, •, , Efficient management can reduce over capitalization., Redemption of preference share capital which consists of high rate of dividend., Reorganization of equity share capital., Reduction of debt capital., , Under Capitalization, Under capitalization is the opposite concept of over capitalization and it will occur when, the company’s actual capitalization is lower than the capitalization as warranted by its, earning capacity. Under capitalization is not the so called inadequate capital., Under capitalization can be defined by Gerstenberg, “a corporation may be under, capitalized when the rate of profit is exceptionally high in the same industry”., Hoagland defined under capitalization as “an excess of true assets value over the, aggregate of stocks and bonds outstanding”., Causes of Under Capitalization, Under capitalization arises due to the following important causes:, • Under estimation of capital requirements., • Under estimation of initial and future earnings., • Maintaining high standards of efficiency., • Conservative dividend policy., • Desire of control and trading on equity., Effects of Under Capitalization, Under Capitalization leads certain effects in the company and its shareholders., • It leads to manipulate the market value of shares., • It increases the marketability of the shares.
Page 61 :
Capitalization, , 45, , • It may lead to more government control and higher taxation., • Consumers feel that they are exploited by the company., • It leads to high competition., Remedies of Under Capitalization, Under Capitalization may be corrected by taking the following remedial measures:, 1. Under capitalization can be compensated with the help of fresh issue of shares., 2. Increasing the par value of share may help to reduce under capitalization., 3. Under capitalization may be corrected by the issue of bonus shares to the existing, shareholders., 4. Reducing the dividend per share by way of splitting up of shares., Watered Capitalization, If the stock or capital of the company is not mentioned by assets of equivalent value, it is, called as watered stock. In simple words, watered capital means that the realizable value of, assets of the company is less than its book value., According to Hoagland’s definition, “A stock is said to be watered when its true value, is less than its book value.”, Causes of Watered Capital, Generally watered capital arises at the time of incorporation of a company but it also arises, during the life time of the business. The following are the main causes of watered capital:, 1. Acquiring the assets of the company at high price., 2. Adopting ineffective depreciation policy., 3. Worthless intangible assets are purchased at higher price., , MODEL QUESTIONS, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., , What is capital and define the capital?, Explain the types of capital., What is capitalization?, What are the kinds of capitalization?, Explain the effects of under capitalization., Discuss the causes of over capitalization.

INTRODUCTION, Capital is the major part of all kinds of business activities, which are decided by the size,, and nature of the business concern. Capital may be raised with the help of various sources., If the company maintains proper and adequate level of capital, it will earn high profit and, they can provide more dividends to its shareholders., Meaning of Capital Structure, Capital structure refers to the kinds of securities and the proportionate amounts that make, up capitalization. It is the mix of different sources of long-term sources such as equity, shares, preference shares, debentures, long-term loans and retained earnings., The term capital structure refers to the relationship between the various long-term, source financing such as equity capital, preference share capital and debt capital. Deciding, the suitable capital structure is the important decision of the financial management because, it is closely related to the value of the firm., Capital structure is the permanent financing of the company represented primarily by, long-term debt and equity., Definition of Capital Structure, The following definitions clearly initiate, the meaning and objective of the capital structures., According to the definition of Gerestenbeg, “Capital Structure of a company refers, to the composition or make up of its capitalization and it includes all long-term capital, resources”., According to the definition of James C. Van Horne, “The mix of a firm’s permanent, long-term financing represented by debt, preferred stock, and common stock equity”., According to the definition of Presana Chandra, “The composition of a firm’s, financing consists of equity, preference, and debt”.
Page 64 :
Financial Management, , 48, , According to the definition of R.H. Wessel, “The long term sources of fund employed, in a business enterprise”., , FINANCIAL STRUCTURE, The term financial structure is different from the capital structure. Financial structure, shows the pattern total financing. It measures the extent to which total funds are available, to finance the total assets of the business., Financial Structure = Total liabilities, Or, Financial Structure = Capital Structure + Current liabilities., The following points indicate the difference between the financial structure and capital, structure., Financial Structures, , Capital Structures, , 1. It includes both long-term and short-term sources of funds, 2. It means the entire liabilities side of the balance sheet., 3. Financial structures consist of all sources of capital., 4.

It consist of equity, preference and, retained earning capital., 4. It is one of the major determinations of, the value of the firm., , Example, From the following information, calculate the capitalization, capital structure and financial, structures., Balance Sheet, Liabilities, Equity share capital, Preference share capital, Debentures, Retained earnings, Bills payable, Creditors, , Assets, 50,000, 5,000, 6,000, 4,000, 2,000, 3,000, 70,000, , Fixed assets, Good will, Stock, Bills receivable, Debtors, Cash and bank, , (i) Calculation of Capitalization, S.

Maximize the value of the firm., 2. Minimize the overall cost of capital., Forms of Capital Structure, Capital structure pattern varies from company to company and the availability of finance., Normally the following forms of capital structure are popular in practice., • Equity shares only., • Equity and preference shares only., • Equity and Debentures only., • Equity shares, preference shares and debentures.
Page 66 :
50, , Financial Management, , FACTORS DETERMINING CAPITAL STRUCTURE, The following factors are considered while deciding the capital structure of the firm., Leverage, It is the basic and important factor, which affect the capital structure. It uses the fixed cost, financing such as debt, equity and preference share capital. It is closely related to the, overall cost of capital., Cost of Capital, Cost of capital constitutes the major part for deciding the capital structure of a firm., Normally long- term finance such as equity and debt consist of fixed cost while mobilization., When the cost of capital increases, value of the firm will also decrease. Hence the firm, must take careful steps to reduce the cost of capital., (a) Nature of the business: Use of fixed interest/dividend bearing finance depends, upon the nature of the business. If the business consists of long period of, operation, it will apply for equity than debt, and it will reduce the cost of capital., (b) Size of the company: It also affects the capital structure of a firm. If the firm, belongs to large scale, it can manage the financial requirements with the help of, internal sources. But if it is small size, they will go for external finance. It consists, of high cost of capital., (c) Legal requirements: Legal requirements are also one of the considerations while, dividing the capital structure of a firm. For example, banking companies are, restricted to raise funds from some sources., (d) Requirement of investors: In order to collect funds from different type of, investors, it will be appropriate for the companies to issue different sources of, securities., Government policy, Promoter contribution is fixed by the company Act. It restricts to mobilize large, longterm funds from external sources. Hence the company must consider government policy, regarding the capital structure., , CAPITAL STRUCTURE THEORIES, Capital structure is the major part of the firm’s financial decision which affects the value of, the firm and it leads to change EBIT and market value of the shares. There is a relationship, among the capital structure, cost of capital and value of the firm. The aim of effective capital, structure is to maximize the value of the firm and to reduce the cost of capital., There are two major theories explaining the relationship between capital structure,, cost of capital and value of the firm.

Hence, it is also, called as intermediate approach. According to the traditional approach, mix of debt and, equity capital can increase the value of the firm by reducing overall cost of capital up to, certain level of debt. Traditional approach states that the Ko decreases only within the, responsible limit of financial leverage and when reaching the minimum level, it starts, increasing with financial leverage., Assumptions, Capital structure theories are based on certain assumption to analysis in a single and, convenient manner:, • There are only two sources of funds used by a firm; debt and shares., • The firm pays 100% of its earning as dividend., • The total assets are given and do not change., • The total finance remains constant., • The operating profits (EBIT) are not expected to grow., • The business risk remains constant., • The firm has a perpetual life., • The investors behave rationally., Exercise 1, ABC Ltd., needs Rs. 30,00,000 for the installation of a new factory. The new factory, expects to yield annual earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of Rs.5,00,000. In choosing, a financial plan, ABC Ltd., has an objective of maximizing earnings per share (EPS). The, company proposes to issuing ordinary shares and raising debit of Rs. 3,00,000 and Rs., 10,00,000 of Rs. 15,00,000. The current market price per share is Rs. 250 and is expected, to drop to Rs. 200 if the funds are borrowed in excess of Rs. 12,00,000. Funds can be, raised at the following rates.

Therefore, the company is advised to revise Rs. 10,00,000 through debt amount Rs. 20,00,000 through, ordinary shares., Exercise 2, Compute the market value of the firm, value of shares and the average cost of capital from, the following information., Net operating income, Rs. 1,00,000, Total investment, Rs. 5,00,000, Equity capitalization Rate:, (a) If the firm uses no debt 10%, (b) If the firm uses Rs. 25,000 debentures 11%, (c) If the firm uses Rs. 4,00,000 debentures 13%, Assume that Rs. 5,00,000 debentures can be raised at 6% rate of interest whereas, Rs. 4,00,000 debentures can be raised at 7% rate of interest., Solution, Computation of market value of firm value of shares and the average cost of capital.

But, if more debt is used to finance in place of equity i.e.,, Rs. 4,00,000 debentures, the value of the firm decreases and the overall cost of capital, increases., Net Income (NI) Approach, Net income approach suggested by the Durand. According to this approach, the capital, structure decision is relevant to the valuation of the firm. In other words, a change in the, capital structure leads to a corresponding change in the overall cost of capital as well as the, total value of the firm., According to this approach, use more debt finance to reduce the overall cost of capital, and increase the value of firm., Net income approach is based on the following three important assumptions:, 1. There are no corporate taxes., 2. The cost debt is less than the cost of equity., 3. The use of debt does not change the risk perception of the investor.

Calculate the value of, the firm and overall capitalization rate according to the net income approach, (ignoring income tax)., (b) If the debenture debts are increased to Rs. 4,00,000. What shall be the value of, the firm and the overall capitalization rate?, Solution, (a) Capitalization of the value of the firm, Net income, Less: Interest on 8% Debentures of Rs. 2,50,000, Earnings available to equality shareholders, Equity capitalization rate, =, , 80,000, × 100, 10, , Rs., 1,00,000, 20,000, 80,000, 10%

This is just the opposite, to the Net Income approach. According to this approach, Capital Structure decision is, irrelevant to the valuation of the firm. The market value of the firm is not at all affected by, the capital structure changes., According to this approach, the change in capital structure will not lead to any change, in the total value of the firm and market price of shares as well as the overall cost of capital.

In other words MM approach maintains, that the average cost of capital does not change with change in the debt weighted equity mix, or capital structures of the firm., Modigliani and Miller approach is based on the following important assumptions:, • There is a perfect capital market., • There are no retained earnings., • There are no corporate taxes., • The investors act rationally., • The dividend payout ratio is 100%., • The business consists of the same level of business risk., Value of the firm can be calculated with the help of the following formula:, EBIT, ( l − t), Ko, , Where, EBIT = Earnings before interest and tax, Ko = Overall cost of capital, t = Tax rate

In the given problem, the arbitrage will work out as below., 1. The investor will sell in the market 10% of shares in company ‘X’ for, 75,000×10/100×1.25=Rs. 9375, 2. He will raise a loan of Rs. 40,000×10/100=Rs. 4000, To take advantage of personal leverage as against the corporate leverage the company, ‘Y’ does not use debt content in its capital structure. He will put 13375 shares in company, ‘Y’ with the total amount realized from 1 and 2 i.e., Rs. 9375 plus Rs. 4000. Thus he will, have 10.7% of shares in company ‘Y’., The investor will gain by switching his holding as below:, Present income of the investor in company ‘X’, Rs., Profit before Interest of the Company, 25,000, Less: Interest on Debentures 5%, 2,000, Profit after Interest, 23,000, Share of the investor = 10% of Rs. 23,000 i.e., Rs. 2300, Income of the investor after switching holding to company, Profit before Interest of the company, Rs. 25,000, Less Interest, ——, Profit after Interest, 25,000, , 13,375, Share of the investor : 25,000× 1,25,000, , = Rs. 2,675, , Interest paid on loan taken 4000×5/100, Net Income of the Investor, , 200, 2,475

X and Y belonging to the same, risk class., X, , Y, , No. of ordinary shares, Market price/share (Rs.), 6% debentures, , 90,000, 1.2, 60,000, , 1,50,000, 1.0, –, , Profit before interest, , 18,000, , 18,000, , All profits after interest are distributed as dividend., Explain how under Modigliani & Miller Approach an investor holding 10% of shares, in Company X will be better off in switching his holding to Company Y., (CA Final Nov. 1993), , Solution, Both the firms have EBIT of Rs. 18,000. Company X has to pay interest of Rs. 3600, (i.e., 6% on Rs. 60,000) and the remaining profit of Rs. 14,400 is being distributed among, the shareholders. The Company Y on the other hand has no interest liability and therefore, is distributing Rs.18,000 among the shareholders., The investor will be well off under MM Model by selling the shares of X and shifting to, shares of Y company through the arbitrage process as follows. If he sells shares of X, Company He gets Rs. 10,800 (9,000 shares @ Rs.1.2 per share). He now takes a 6% loan, of Rs.6,000, (i.e. 105 of Rs. 60,000) and out of the total cash of Rs. 16,800 he purchases 10% of, shares of Company Y for Rs. 15,000; his position with regard to Company Y would be as, follows:, Dividends (10% of Profits), Less:Interest (6% on Rs. 6,000), Net Income, , X, , Y, , 1,440, , 1,800, , –, 1,440, , 360, 1,440, , Thus by shifting from Company Y the investor is able to get the same income of Rs., 1,440 and still having funds of Rs. 1,800 (i.e., Rs. 16,800 – 15,000) at his disposal. He is, better off not in terms of income but in terms of having capital of Rs. 1,800 with him, which he can invest elsewhere., Exercise 10, Gentry Motors Ltd., a producer of turbine generators, is in this situation; EBIT = Rs. 40, lac. rate =35%, dept. outstanding = D = Rs. 20 lac., rate of Interest =10%, Ke = 15%,, shares of stock outstanding = No. = Rs. 6,00,000 and book value per share = Rs. 10., Since Gentry’s product market is stable and the Company expects no growth, all earnings are, paid out as dividends. The debt consists of perpetual bonds. What are the Gentry’s EBS and, (CS Final Dec. 1998), its price per share, Po?

EBIT will remain, constant, should this Company change its capital structure., If Company decides to increase its debt by Rs. 80 lacs, the Company may buy back, 80,00,000 ÷ 27.47 = 2,91,226 shares. Thereafter the remaining no. of shares would be, 3,08,774 (i.e., 6,00,000 – 2,91,226)., The market price of the share may be ascertained as follows:, EBIT, 40,00,000, Interest @ 12% on Rs. 1 crore, Tax @ 35%, No. of equity shares, EPS, Ke, Po (i.e., D/Ke), , 12,00,000, 28,00,000, 9,80,000, 18,20,000, 3,08,774, Rs. 5.89, 17%, 5.89, .17, , = Rs. 34.64, As the price is expected to rise from 27.47 to Rs 34.64, the Company may change its, capital structure by raising debt and retaining some number of shares.

INTRODUCTION, Cost of capital is an integral part of investment decision as it is used to measure the worth, of investment proposal provided by the business concern. It is used as a discount rate in, determining the present value of future cash flows associated with capital projects. Cost of, capital is also called as cut-off rate, target rate, hurdle rate and required rate of return., When the firms are using different sources of finance, the finance manager must take, careful decision with regard to the cost of capital; because it is closely associated with the, value of the firm and the earning capacity of the firm., Meaning of Cost of Capital, Cost of capital is the rate of return that a firm must earn on its project investments to, maintain its market value and attract funds., Cost of capital is the required rate of return on its investments which belongs to equity,, debt and retained earnings. If a firm fails to earn return at the expected rate, the market, value of the shares will fall and it will result in the reduction of overall wealth of the, shareholders., Definitions, The following important definitions are commonly used to understand the meaning and, concept of the cost of capital., According to the definition of John J. Hampton “ Cost of capital is the rate of return, the firm required from investment in order to increase the value of the firm in the market, place”., According to the definition of Solomon Ezra, “Cost of capital is the minimum required, rate of earnings or the cut-off rate of capital expenditure”.
Page 82 :
Financial Management, , 66, , According to the definition of James C. Van Horne, Cost of capital is “A cut-off rate for, the allocation of capital to investment of projects. It is the rate of return on a project that, will leave unchanged the market price of the stock”., According to the definition of William and Donaldson, “Cost of capital may be defined, as the rate that must be earned on the net proceeds to provide the cost elements of the, burden at the time they are due”., Assumption of Cost of Capital, Cost of capital is based on certain assumptions which are closely associated while calculating, and measuring the cost of capital. It is to be considered that there are three basic concepts:, 1. It is not a cost as such. It is merely a hurdle rate., 2. It is the minimum rate of return., 3. It consis of three important risks such as zero risk level, business risk and financial risk., Cost of capital can be measured with the help of the following equation., K = rj + b + f., Where,, K = Cost of capital., rj = The riskless cost of the particular type of finance., b = The business risk premium., f = The financial risk premium., , CLASSIFICATION OF COST OF CAPITAL, Cost of capital may be classified into the following types on the basis of nature and usage:, •, •, •, •, , Explicit and Implicit Cost., Average and Marginal Cost., Historical and Future Cost., Specific and Combined Cost., , Explicit and Implicit Cost, The cost of capital may be explicit or implicit cost on the basis of the computation of cost, of capital., Explicit cost is the rate that the firm pays to procure financing. This may be calculated, with the help of the following equation;, n, , CIo =, , CO, , t, ∑, t, t 1 (t + C), =, , Where,, CIo = initial cash inflow, C = outflow in the period concerned
Page 83 :
Cost of Captial, , 67, , N = duration for which the funds are provided, T = tax rate, Implicit cost is the rate of return associated with the best investment opportunity for, the firm and its shareholders that will be forgone if the projects presently under, consideration by the firm were accepted., Average and Marginal Cost, Average cost of capital is the weighted average cost of each component of capital employed, by the company. It considers weighted average cost of all kinds of financing such as equity,, debt, retained earnings etc., Marginal cost is the weighted average cost of new finance raised by the company. It is, the additional cost of capital when the company goes for further raising of finance., Historical and Future Cost, Historical cost is the cost which as already been incurred for financing a particular project., It is based on the actual cost incurred in the previous project., Future cost is the expected cost of financing in the proposed project. Expected cost is, calculated on the basis of previous experience., Specific and Combine Cost, The cost of each sources of capital such as equity, debt, retained earnings and loans is, called as specific cost of capital. It is very useful to determine the each and every specific, source of capital., The composite or combined cost of capital is the combination of all sources of capital., It is also called as overall cost of capital. It is used to understand the total cost associated, with the total finance of the firm., , IMPORTANCE OF COST OF CAPITAL, Computation of cost of capital is a very important part of the financial management to, decide the capital structure of the business concern., Importance to Capital Budgeting Decision, Capital budget decision largely depends on the cost of capital of each source. According to, net present value method, present value of cash inflow must be more than the present, value of cash outflow. Hence, cost of capital is used to capital budgeting decision., Importance to Structure Decision, Capital structure is the mix or proportion of the different kinds of long term securities., A firm uses particular type of sources if the cost of capital is suitable. Hence, cost of capital, helps to take decision regarding structure.
Page 84 :
Financial Management, , 68, , Importance to Evolution of Financial Performance, Cost of capital is one of the important determine which affects the capital budgeting, capital, structure and value of the firm. Hence, it helps to evaluate the financial performance of the firm., Importance to Other Financial Decisions, Apart from the above points, cost of capital is also used in some other areas such as, market, value of share, earning capacity of securities etc. hence, it plays a major part in the financial, management., , COMPUTATION OF COST OF CAPITAL, Computation of cost of capital consists of two important parts:, 1. Measurement of specific costs, 2. Measurement of overall cost of capital, Measurement of Cost of Capital, It refers to the cost of each specific sources of finance like:, •, •, •, •, , Cost, Cost, Cost, Cost, , of, of, of, of, , equity, debt, preference share, retained earnings, , Cost of Equity, Cost of equity capital is the rate at which investors discount the expected dividends of the, firm to determine its share value., Conceptually the cost of equity capital (Ke) defined as the “Minimum rate of return, that a firm must earn on the equity financed portion of an investment project in order to, leave unchanged the market price of the shares”., Cost of equity can be calculated from the following approach:, • Dividend price (D/P) approach, • Dividend price plus growth (D/P + g) approach, • Earning price (E/P) approach, • Realized yield approach., Dividend Price Approach, The cost of equity capital will be that rate of expected dividend which will maintain the, present market price of equity shares., Dividend price approach can be measured with the help of the following formula:, Ke =, , D, Np
Page 85 :
Cost of Captial, , 69, , Where,, Ke = Cost of equity capital, D = Dividend per equity share, Np = Net proceeds of an equity share, Exercise 1, A company issues 10,000 equity shares of Rs. 100 each at a premium of 10%. The, company has been paying 25% dividend to equity shareholders for the past five years and, expects to maintain the same in the future also. Compute the cost of equity capital. Will it, make any difference if the market price of equity share is Rs. 175?, Solution, Ke =, , D, Np, , 25, × 100, 100, = 22.72%, If the market price of a equity share is Rs. 175., =, , Ke =, , D, Np, , 25, × 100, 175, = 14.28%, , =, , Dividend Price Plus Growth Approach, The cost of equity is calculated on the basis of the expected dividend rate per share plus, growth in dividend. It can be measured with the help of the following formula:, , Ke =, , D, +g, Np, , Where,, Ke = Cost of equity capital, D = Dividend per equity share, g = Growth in expected dividend, Np = Net proceeds of an equity share, Exercise 2, (a) A company plans to issue 10000 new shares of Rs. 100 each at a par. The, floatation costs are expected to be 4% of the share price. The company pays a, dividend of Rs. 12 per share initially and growth in dividends is expected to be 5%., Compute the cost of new issue of equity shares.

Calculate the cost of, existing equity share capital, Solution, (a), , Ke=, =, , (b), , Ke=, , D, +g, Np, 12, +5=17.5%, 100 − 4, D, +g, Np, , =, , 12, +5%=15%, 120, , Exercise 3, The current market price of the shares of A Ltd. is Rs. 95. The floatation costs are, Rs. 5 per share amounts to Rs. 4.50 and is expected to grow at a rate of 7%. You are, required to calculate the cost of equity share capital., Solution, Market price Rs. 95, Dividend Rs. 4.50, Growth 7%., Ke =, =, , D, +g, Np, , 4.50, × 100 + 7%, 95, , = 4.73% + 7% = 11.73%, Earning Price Approach, Cost of equity determines the market price of the shares. It is based on the future earning, prospects of the equity. The formula for calculating the cost of equity according to this, approach is as follows., , Ke =, , E, Np, , Where,, Ke = Cost of equity capital, E = Earning per share, Np = Net proceeds of an equity share

Financial Management, , 72, , Cost of Debt, Cost of debt is the after tax cost of long-term funds through borrowing. Debt may be issued, at par, at premium or at discount and also it may be perpetual or redeemable., Debt Issued at Par, Debt issued at par means, debt is issued at the face value of the debt. It may be calculated, with the help of the following formula., Kd = (1 – t) R, Where,, Kd = Cost of debt capital, t = Tax rate, R = Debenture interest rate, Debt Issued at Premium or Discount, If the debt is issued at premium or discount, the cost of debt is calculated with the help of, the following formula., , I, Kd = N (1 – t), p, Where,, Kd = Cost of debt capital, I = Annual interest payable, Np = Net proceeds of debenture, t = Tax rate, Exercise 5, (a) A Ltd. issues Rs. 10,00,000, 8% debentures at par. The tax rate applicable to the, company is 50%. Compute the cost of debt capital., (b) B Ltd. issues Rs. 1,00,000, 8% debentures at a premium of 10%. The tax rate, applicable to the company is 60%.

INTRODUCTION, Financial decision is one of the integral and important parts of financial management in, any kind of business concern. A sound financial decision must consider the board coverage, of the financial mix (Capital Structure), total amount of capital (capitalization) and cost of, capital (Ko). Capital structure is one of the significant things for the management, since it, influences the debt equity mix of the business concern, which affects the shareholder’s, return and risk. Hence, deciding the debt-equity mix plays a major role in the part of the, value of the company and market value of the shares. The debt equity mix of the company, can be examined with the help of leverage., The concept of leverage is discussed in this part. Types and effects of leverage is discussed, in the part of EBIT and EPS., Meaning of Leverage, The term leverage refers to an increased means of accomplishing some purpose.

It is caused, due to fixed operating expenses in the company. Operating leverage may be defined as the, company’s ability to use fixed operating costs to magnify the effects of changes in sales on, its earnings before interest and taxes. Operating leverage consists of two important costs, viz., fixed cost and variable cost. When the company is said to have a high degree of, operating leverage if it employs a great amount of fixed cost and smaller amount of variable, cost. Thus, the degree of operating leverage depends upon the amount of various cost, structure. Operating leverage can be determined with the help of a break even analysis., Operating leverage can be calculated with the help of the following formula:, OL =, , C, OP, , Where,, OL = Operating Leverage, C = Contribution, OP = Operating Profits, Degree of Operating Leverage, The degree of operating leverage may be defined as percentage change in the profits resulting, from a percentage change in the sales.

Hence, it is also called as positive, financial leverage., Unfavourable financial leverage occurs when the company does not earn as much as, the funds cost. Hence, it is also called as negative financial leverage., Financial leverage can be calculated with the help of the following formula:, FL =, , OP, PBT, , Where,, FL = Financial leverage, OP = Operating profit (EBIT), PBT = Profit before tax., Degree of Financial Leverage, Degree of financial leverage may be defined as the percentage change in taxable profit as a, result of percentage change in earning before interest and tax (EBIT). This can be calculated, by the following formula, , DFL=, , Percentage change in taxable Income, Precentage change in EBIT

INTRODUCTION, The financial manager must take careful decisions on how the profit should be distributed, among shareholders. It is very important and crucial part of the business concern, because, these decisions are directly related with the value of the business concern and shareholder’s, wealth. Like financing decision and investment decision, dividend decision is also a major, part of the financial manager. When the business concerns decide dividend policy, they, have to consider certain factors such as retained earnings and the nature of shareholder of, the business concern., Meaning of Dividend, Dividend refers to the business concerns net profits distributed among the shareholders. It, may also be termed as the part of the profit of a business concern, which is distributed, among its shareholders., According to the Institute of Chartered Accountant of India, dividend is defined as, “a distribution to shareholders out of profits or reserves available for this purpose”., , TYPES OF DIVIDEND/ FORM OF DIVIDEND, Dividend may be distributed among the shareholders in the form of cash or stock. Hence,, Dividends are classified into:, A., B., C., D., , Cash dividend, Stock dividend, Bond dividend, Property dividend

Financial Management, , 100, , Dividend, , Cash Dividend, , Bond Dividend, , Stock Dividend, , Property Dividend, , Fig. 8.1 Types of Dividend, , Cash Dividend, If the dividend is paid in the form of cash to the shareholders, it is called cash dividend. It, is paid periodically out the business concerns EAIT (Earnings after interest and tax). Cash, dividends are common and popular types followed by majority of the business concerns., Stock Dividend, Stock dividend is paid in the form of the company stock due to raising of more finance., Under this type, cash is retained by the business concern. Stock dividend may be bonus, issue. This issue is given only to the existing shareholders of the business concern., Bond Dividend, Bond dividend is also known as script dividend. If the company does not have sufficient, funds to pay cash dividend, the company promises to pay the shareholder at a future, specific date with the help of issue of bond or notes., Property Dividend, Property dividends are paid in the form of some assets other than cash. It will distributed, under the exceptional circumstance. This type of dividend is not published in India., , DIVIDEND DECISION, Dividend decision of the business concern is one of the crucial parts of the financial manager,, because it determines the amount of profit to be distributed among shareholders and amount, of profit to be treated as retained earnings for financing its long term growth. Hence,, dividend decision plays very important part in the financial management., Dividend decision consists of two important concepts which are based on the, relationship between dividend decision and value of the firm.

Dividend Decision, , 101, Dividend Theories, , Irrelevance of Dividend, , Solomon Approach, , Relevance of Dividend, , MM Approach, , Walter’s Model, , Gordon’s Model, , Fig. 8.2 Dividend Theories, , Irrelevance of Dividend, According to professors Soloman, Modigliani and Miller, dividend policy has no effect, on the share price of the company. There is no relation between the dividend rate and, value of the firm. Dividend decision is irrelevant of the value of the firm. Modigliani and, Miller contributed a major approach to prove the irrelevance dividend concept., Modigliani and Miller’s Approach, According to MM, under a perfect market condition, the dividend policy of the company is, irrelevant and it does not affect the value of the firm., “Under conditions of perfect market, rational investors, absence of tax discrimination, between dividend income and capital appreciation, given the firm’s investment policy, its, dividend policy may have no influence on the market price of shares”., Assumptions, MM approach is based on the following important assumptions:, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., , Perfect capital market., Investors are rational., There are no tax., The firm has fixed investment policy., No risk or uncertainty., , Proof for MM approach, MM approach can be proved with the help of the following formula:, , Po =, , D1 + P1, (1 + K e ), , Where,, Po = Prevailing market price of a share., Ke = Cost of equity capital., D1 = Dividend to be received at the end of period one., P1 = Market price of the share at the end of period one.
Page 118 :
Financial Management, , 102, , P1 can be calculated with the help of the following formula., P1 = Po (1+Ke) – D1, The number of new shares to be issued can be determined by the following formula:, M × P1 = I – (X – nD1), Where,, M = Number of new share to be issued., P1 = Price at which new issue is to be made., I = Amount of investment required., X = Total net profit of the firm during the period., nD1= Total dividend paid during the period., Exercise 1, X Company Ltd., has 100000 shares outstanding the current market price of the shares, Rs. 15 each. The company expects the net profit of Rs. 2,00,000 during the year and it, belongs to a rich class for which the appropriate capitalisation rate has been estimated to, be 20%. The company is considering dividend of Rs. 2.50 per share for the current year., What will be the price of the share at the end of the year (i) if the dividend is paid and, (ii) if the dividend is not paid., Solution, D + P1, Po = 1, (1 + K e ), (i) If the dividend is paid, Po =, Ke =, D1 =, P1 =, , Rs.15, 20%, 2.50, ?, , 15 =, , 2.50 + P1, 1 + 20%, , 15 =, , 2.50 + P1, 1.2, , 2.50 + P1 =, P1 =, P1 =, (ii) If the dividend is not paid, Po =, Ke =, D1 =, , 15 × 1.2, 18 – 2.50, Rs. 15.50, 15, 20%, 0

The following are the major criticisms of, MM approach.
Page 123 :
Dividend Decision, , 107, , MM approach assumes that tax does not exist. It is not applicable in the practical life of, the firm., MM approach assumes that, there is no risk and uncertain of the investment. It is also, not applicable in present day business life., MM approach does not consider floatation cost and transaction cost. It leads to affect, the value of the firm., MM approach considers only single decrement rate, it does not exist in real practice., MM approach assumes that, investor behaves rationally. But we cannot give assurance, that all the investors will behave rationally., , RELEVANCE OF DIVIDEND, According to this concept, dividend policy is considered to affect the value of the firm., Dividend relevance implies that shareholders prefer current dividend and there is no direct, relationship between dividend policy and value of the firm. Relevance of dividend concept, is supported by two eminent persons like Walter and Gordon., , Walter’s Model, Prof. James E. Walter argues that the dividend policy almost always affects the value of, the firm., Walter model is based in the relationship between the following important factors:, • Rate of return I, • Cost of capital (k), According to the Walter’s model, if r > k, the firm is able to earn more than what the, shareholders could by reinvesting, if the earnings are paid to them. The implication of, r > k is that the shareholders can earn a higher return by investing elsewhere., If the firm has r = k, it is a matter of indifferent whether earnings are retained or, distributed., Assumptions, Walters model is based on the following important assumptions:, 1. The firm uses only internal finance., 2. The firm does not use debt or equity finance., 3. The firm has constant return and cost of capital., 4. The firm has 100 recent payout., 5. The firm has constant EPS and dividend., 6. The firm has a very long life., Walter has evolved a mathematical formula for determining the value of market share., r, D+ (E − D), Ke, P=, Ke
Page 124 :
Financial Management, , 108, , Where,, P = Market price of an equity share, D = Dividend per share, r = Internal rate of return, E = Earning per share, Ke = Cost of equity capital, Exercise 5, From the following information supplied to you, ascertain whether the firm is following, an optional dividend policy as per Walter’s Model?, Total Earnings, Rs. 2,00,000, No. of equity shares (of Rs. 100 each 20,000), Dividend paid, Rs. 1,00,000, P/E Ratio, 10, Return Investment, 15%, The firm is expected to maintain its rate on return on fresh investments. Also find out, what should be the E/P ratio at which the dividend policy will have no effect on the value, of the share? Will your decision change if the P/E ratio is 7.25 and interest of 10 %?, Solution, , 200000, Earnings, =, = Rs. 10, 20000, No. of Shares, P/E Ratio = 10, EPS =, , Ke =, , DPS =, , =, , 1, P/E Ratio, , 1, = 0.10, 10, , Total Dividends paid, No. of Shares, 100000, = Rs. 5, 20000, , The value of the share as per Walter’s Model is, P=, =, , D+r/ke(E D), Ke, 5+.15/.10 (10 5), 0.10

In this case, the optional dividend policy for the firm would be to pay zero, dividend and the Market Price would be:, Dividend Payout =, , P=, , =, , 5+.15/.10 (100), .10, 5 + 15, .10, , 20, .10, P = Rs. 200, So, the MP of the share can be increased by following a zero payout, of the P/E is 7.25, instead of 10 then the Ke =1=0.138 and in this case Ke>r and the MP of the share is 7.25., =, , 5+, P=, , .15, (105), .138, .138, .138, , = 5 + 5.435, , P=Rs. 75.62, Exercise 6, The earnings per share of a company are Rs. 80 and the rate of capitalization applicable, to the company is 12%. The company has before it an option of adopting a payment ratio, of 25% (or) 50%(or) 75%. Using Walter’s formula of dividend payout, compute the market, value of the company’s share of the productivity of retained earnings (i) 12% (ii) 8%, (iii) 5%., Solution, E = 10 and Ke=12%=0.12

It is not, practically applicable., There is no possibility of constant return. Return may increase or decrease, depending, upon the business situation. Hence, it is applicable., According to Walter model, it is based on constant cost of capital. But it is not applicable, in the real life of the business., Gordon’s Model, Myron Gorden suggest one of the popular model which assume that dividend policy of a, firm affects its value, and it is based on the following important assumptions:, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., 7., , The firm is an all equity firm., The firm has no external finance., Cost of capital and return are constant., The firm has perpectual life., There are no taxes., Constant relation ratio (g=br)., Cost of capital is greater than growth rate (Ke>br).

Discount rate of the firm is, 10% and it has a policy of retaining 40% of the earnings. Determine the price of its share, using Gordon’s Model. What shall happen to the price of the share if the company has, payout of 60% (or) 20%?, Solution, According to Gordon’s Model, the price of a share is, P=, Given:, , E, r, K, t, b, , =, =, =, =, =, , E (1 b), K e br, , 12% of Rs. 10=Rs. 1.20, 12%=0.12, 10%=0.10, 10%=0.10, 40%=0.40, , Put the values in formula, , 1.20 (1.40), P = 10(.40×.12), =, , 1.20×(0.60), .100.048, , =, , 0.72, 0.052, , = Rs. 13.85

Dividend Decision, , 115, , Criticism of Gordon’s Model, Gordon’s model consists of the following important criticisms:, Gordon model assumes that there is no debt and equity finance used by the firm. It is, not applicable to present day business., Ke and r cannot be constant in the real practice., According to Gordon’s model, there are no tax paid by the firm. It is not practically applicable., FACTORS DETERMINING DIVIDEND POLICY, Profitable Position of the Firm, Dividend decision depends on the profitable position of the business concern. When the, firm earns more profit, they can distribute more dividends to the shareholders., Uncertainty of Future Income, Future income is a very important factor, which affects the dividend policy. When the, shareholder needs regular income, the firm should maintain regular dividend policy., Legal Constrains, The Companies Act 1956 has put several restrictions regarding payments and declaration, of dividends. Similarly, Income Tax Act, 1961 also lays down certain restrictions on payment, of dividends., Liquidity Position, Liquidity position of the firms leads to easy payments of dividend. If the firms have high, liquidity, the firms can provide cash dividend otherwise, they have to pay stock dividend., Sources of Finance, If the firm has finance sources, it will be easy to mobilise large finance. The firm shall not, go for retained earnings., Growth Rate of the Firm, High growth rate implies that the firm can distribute more dividend to its shareholders., Tax Policy, Tax policy of the government also affects the dividend policy of the firm. When the, government gives tax incentives, the company pays more dividend., Capital Market Conditions, Due to the capital market conditions, dividend policy may be affected. If the capital market, is prefect, it leads to improve the higher dividend.

Financial Management, , 116, , TYPES OF DIVIDEND POLICY, Dividend policy depends upon the nature of the firm, type of shareholder and profitable, position. On the basis of the dividend declaration by the firm, the dividend policy may be, classified under the following types:, •, •, •, •, , Regular dividend policy, Stable dividend policy, Irregular dividend policy, No dividend policy., , Regular Dividend Policy, Dividend payable at the usual rate is called as regular dividend policy. This type of policy is, suitable to the small investors, retired persons and others., Stable Dividend Policy, Stable dividend policy means payment of certain minimum amount of dividend regularly., This dividend policy consists of the following three important forms:, Constant dividend per share, Constant payout ratio, Stable rupee dividend plus extra dividend., Irregular Dividend Policy, When the companies are facing constraints of earnings and unsuccessful business operation,, they may follow irregular dividend policy. It is one of the temporary arrangements to meet, the financial problems. These types are having adequate profit. For others no dividend is, distributed., No Dividend Policy, Sometimes the company may follow no dividend policy because of its unfavourable working, capital position of the amount required for future growth of the concerns., , MODEL QUESTIONS, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., 7., , What is dividend?

INTRODUCTION, The word Capital refers to be the total investment of a company of firm in money, tangible, and intangible assets. Whereas budgeting defined by the “Rowland and William” it may, be said to be the art of building budgets. Budgets are a blue print of a plan and action, expressed in quantities and manners., The examples of capital expenditure:, 1. Purchase of fixed assets such as land and building, plant and machinery, good will, etc., 2. The expenditure relating to addition, expansion, improvement and alteration to, the fixed assets., 3. The replacement of fixed assets., 4. Research and development project., Definitions, According to the definition of Charles T. Hrongreen, “capital budgeting is a long-term, planning for making and financing proposed capital out lays., According to the definition of G.C. Philippatos, “capital budgeting is concerned with, the allocation of the firms source financial resources among the available opportunities., The consideration of investment opportunities involves the comparison of the expected, future streams of earnings from a project with the immediate and subsequent streams of, earning from a project, with the immediate and subsequent streams of expenditure”., According to the definition of Richard and Green law, “capital budgeting is acquiring, inputs with long-term return”., According to the definition of Lyrich, “capital budgeting consists in planning, development of available capital for the purpose of maximizing the long-term profitability, of the concern”.
Page 136 :
Financial Management, , 120, , It is clearly explained in the above definitions that a firm’s scarce financial resources, are utilizing the available opportunities. The overall objectives of the company from is to, maximize the profits and minimize the expenditure of cost., Need and Importance of Capital Budgeting, 1. Huge investments: Capital budgeting requires huge investments of funds, but, the available funds are limited, therefore the firm before investing projects, plan, are control its capital expenditure., 2. Long-term: Capital expenditure is long-term in nature or permanent in nature., Therefore financial risks involved in the investment decision are more. If higher, risks are involved, it needs careful planning of capital budgeting., 3. Irreversible: The capital investment decisions are irreversible, are not changed, back. Once the decision is taken for purchasing a permanent asset, it is very, difficult to dispose off those assets without involving huge losses., 4. Long-term effect: Capital budgeting not only reduces the cost but also increases, the revenue in long-term and will bring significant changes in the profit of the, company by avoiding over or more investment or under investment. Over, investments leads to be unable to utilize assets or over utilization of fixed assets., Therefore before making the investment, it is required carefully planning and, analysis of the project thoroughly., CAPITAL BUDGETING PROCESS, Capital budgeting is a difficult process to the investment of available funds. The benefit, will attained only in the near future but, the future is uncertain. However, the following, steps followed for capital budgeting, then the process may be easier are., , Identification of Various Investments, , Identification of Various, Investment Proposals, , Steps, , Screening or Matching the Available Resources, , Evaluation of Proposals, Fixing Property, Final Approval, Implementation, , Fig. 9.1 Capital Budgeting Process, , Feedback

Capital Budgeting, , 121, , 1. Identification of various investments proposals: The capital budgeting may, have various investment proposals. The proposal for the investment opportunities, may be defined from the top management or may be even from the lower rank., The heads of various department analyse the various investment decisions, and, will select proposals submitted to the planning committee of competent authority., 2. Screening or matching the proposals: The planning committee will analyse the, various proposals and screenings. The selected proposals are considered with the, available resources of the concern. Here resources referred as the financial part, of the proposal. This reduces the gap between the resources and the investment, cost., 3. Evaluation: After screening, the proposals are evaluated with the help of various, methods, such as pay back period proposal, net discovered present value method,, accounting rate of return and risk analysis. Each method of evaluation used in, detail in the later part of this chapter. The proposals are evaluated by., (a) Independent proposals, (b) Contingent of dependent proposals, (c) Partially exclusive proposals., Independent proposals are not compared with another proposals and the same, may be accepted or rejected. Whereas higher proposals acceptance depends upon, the other one or more proposals. For example, the expansion of plant machinery, leads to constructing of new building, additional manpower etc. Mutually exclusive, projects are those which competed with other proposals and to implement the, proposals after considering the risk and return, market demand etc., 4. Fixing property: After the evolution, the planning committee will predict which, proposals will give more profit or economic consideration. If the projects or, proposals are not suitable for the concern’s financial condition, the projects are, rejected without considering other nature of the proposals., 5. Final approval: The planning committee approves the final proposals, with the, help of the following:, (a) Profitability, (b) Economic constituents, (c) Financial violability, (d) Market conditions., The planning committee prepares the cost estimation and submits to the, management., 6. Implementing: The competent autherity spends the money and implements the, proposals. While implementing the proposals, assign responsibilities to the proposals,, assign responsibilities for completing it, within the time allotted and reduce the cost, for this purpose. The network techniques used such as PERT and CPM. It helps, the management for monitoring and containing the implementation of the proposals.
Page 138 :
Financial Management, , 122, , 7. Performance review of feedback: The final stage of capital budgeting is actual, results compared with the standard results. The adverse or unfavourable results, identified and removing the various difficulties of the project. This is helpful for, the future of the proposals., , KINDS OF CAPITAL BUDGETING DECISIONS, The overall objective of capital budgeting is to maximize the profitability. If a firm, concentrates return on investment, this objective can be achieved either by increasing the, revenues or reducing the costs. The increasing revenues can be achieved by expansion or, the size of operations by adding a new product line. Reducing costs mean representing, obsolete return on assets., , METHODS OF CAPITAL BUDGETING OF EVALUATION, By matching the available resources and projects it can be invested. The funds available, are always living funds. There are many considerations taken for investment decision, process such as environment and economic conditions., The methods of evaluations are classified as follows:, (A) Traditional methods (or Non-discount methods), (i) Pay-back Period Methods, (ii) Post Pay-back Methods, (iii) Accounts Rate of Return, (B) Modern methods (or Discount methods), (i) Net Present Value Method, (ii) Internal Rate of Return Method, (iii) Profitability Index Method, Methods of Capital Budgeting, , Traditional, Method, , Pay-back, Method, , Post pay-back, Method, , Modern, Methods, , Accounting, Rate of Return, , Net present, Value, Method, , Internal Rate, of Return, Method, , Profitability, Index, Method, , Fig. 9.2 Capital Budgeting Methods, , Pay-back Period, Pay-back period is the time required to recover the initial investment in a project.
Page 139 :
Capital Budgeting, , 123, , (It is one of the non-discounted cash flow methods of capital budgeting)., Pay-back period =, , Initial investment, Annual cash inflows, , Merits of Pay-back method, The following are the important merits of the pay-back method:, 1. It is easy to calculate and simple to understand., 2. Pay-back method provides further improvement over the accounting rate return., 3. Pay-back method reduces the possibility of loss on account of obsolescence., Demerits, 1. It ignores the time value of money., 2. It ignores all cash inflows after the pay-back period., 3. It is one of the misleading evaluations of capital budgeting., Accept /Reject criteria, If the actual pay-back period is less than the predetermined pay-back period, the project, would be accepted. If not, it would be rejected., Exercise 1, Project cost is Rs. 30,000 and the cash inflows are Rs. 10,000, the life of the project is, 5 years. Calculate the pay-back period., Solution, , =, , Rs. 30,000, = 3 Years, Rs. 10,000, , The annual cash inflow is calculated by considering the amount of net income on the, amount of depreciation project (Asset) before taxation but after taxation. The income, precision earned is expressed as a percentage of initial investment, is called unadjusted rate, of return. The above problem will be calculated as below:, Unadjusted rate of return =, , =, , Annual Return, × 100, Investment, Rs. 10,000, × 100, Rs. 30,000, , = 33.33%, Exercise 2, A project costs Rs. 20,00,000 and yields annually a profit of Rs. 3,00,000 after, depreciation @ 12½% but before tax at 50%. Calculate the pay-back period.

In those cases the pay-back, period is calculated, cumulative cash inflows will be calculated and then interpreted., Exercise 3, Certain projects require an initial cash outflow of Rs. 25,000. The cash inflows for 6, years are Rs. 5,000, Rs. 8,000, Rs. 10,000, Rs. 12,000, Rs. 7,000 and Rs. 3,000., Solution, Year, , Cash Inflows (Rs.), , Cumulative Cash Inflows (Rs.), , 1, , 5,000, , 5,000, , 2, , 8,000, , 13,000, , 3, , 10,000, , 23,000, , 4, , 12,000, , 35,000, , 5, , 7,000, , 42,000, , 6, , 3,000, , 45,000, , The above calculation shows that in 3 years Rs. 23,000 has been recovered Rs. 2,000, is, balance out of cash outflow. In the 4th year the cash inflow is Rs. 12,000. It means the, pay-back period is three to four years, calculated as follows, Pay-back period = 3 years+2000/12000×12 months, = 3 years 2 months., Post Pay-back Profitability Method, One of the major limitations of pay-back period method is that it does not consider the cash, inflows earned after pay-back period and if the real profitability of the project cannot be, assessed. To improve over this method, it can be made by considering the receivable after, the pay-back period. These returns are called post pay-back profits.

It gives the results in percentage., Exercise 11, The initial of an equipment is Rs. 10,000. Cash inflow for 5 years are estimated to be Rs., 3,500 per year. The management is desired minimum rate of excess present value index., Solution, Present value of Rs. 1 received annually for 5 years can be had form the annuity, table., Present value of 3,500 received annually for 5 years., Excess present value index =, =, , Total present value of cash inflows, Total present value of cash outflows, 11,732, 10,000 × 100, , = 117,32%, Capital Rationing, In the rationing the company has only limited investment the project are selected according, to the profitability. The project has selected the combination of proposal that will yield the, greatest portability., Exercise 12 Let us assume that a firm has only Rs. 20 lakhs to invest and funds cannot, be provided. The various proposals along with the cost and profitability index are as follows., Proposal, , Pool of the project, , Profitability Index, , 1, 2, 3, 4, , 6,00,000, 2,00,000, 10,00,000, 4,00,000, , 1.46, .098, 2.31, 1.32, , 5, , 3,00,000, , 1.25
Page 152 :
Financial Management, , 136, , Solution, In this example all proposals expect number 2 give profitability exceeding one and are, profitable investments. The total outlay required to be invested in all other (profitable), project is Rs. 25,00,000(1+2+3+4+5) but total funds available with the firm are Rs. 20, lakhs and hence the firm has to do capital combination of project within a total which has, the lowest profitability index along with the profitable proposals cannot be taken., , RISK AND UNCERTAINLY IN CAPITAL BUDGETING, Capital budgeting requires the projection of cash inflow and outflow of the future., The future in always uncertain, estimate of demand, production, selling price, cost etc.,, cannot be exact., For example: The product at any time it become obsolete therefore, the future in, unexpected. The following methods for considering the accounting of risk in capital budgeting., Various evaluation methods are used for risk and uncertainty in capital budgeting are as, follows:, (i) Risk-adjusted cut off rate (or method of varying discount rate), (ii) Certainly equivalent method., (iii) Sensitivity technique., (iv) Probability technique, (v) Standard deviation method., (vi) Co-efficient of variation method., (vii) Decision tree analysis., (i) Risk-adjusted cutoff rate (or Method of varying), This is one of the simplest method while calculating the risk in capital budgeting, increase cut of rate or discount factor by certain percentage an account of risk., Exercise 13 The Ramakrishna Ltd., in considering the purchase of a new investment., Two alternative investments are available (X and Y) each costing Rs. 150000. Cash inflows, are expected to be as follows:, Cash Inflows, Year, , Investment X, Rs., , Investment Y, Rs., , 1, , 60,000, , 65,000, , 2, , 45,000, , 55,000, , 3, , 35,000, , 40,000, , 4, , 30,000, , 40,000, , The company has a target return on capital of 10%. Risk premium rate are 2% and, 8% respectively for investment X and Y. Which investment should be preferred?
Page 153 :
Capital Budgeting, , 137, , Solution, The profitability of the two investments can be compared on the basis of net present, values cash inflows adjusted for risk premium rates as follows:, Investment X, , Investment Y, , Year, , Discount, Factor10% + 2%, = 12%, , Cash, Inflow, Rs., , Present, Value, Rs., , Discount, Factor, 10% +, 8%=18%, , Cash, Inflow, Rs., , 1, 2, 3, 4, , 0.893, 0.797, 0.712, 0.635, , 60,000, 45,000, 35,000, 30,000, , 53,580, 35,865, 24,920, 19,050, 1,33,415, , 0.847, 0.718, 0.609, 0.516, , 85,000, 55,000, 40,000, 40,000, , Present, Values, , 71,995, 39,490, 24,360, 20,640, 1,56,485, , Investment X, Net present value = 133415 – 150000, = – Rs. 16585, Investment Y, Net present value = 156485 – 150000, = Rs. 6485, As even at a higher discount rate investment Y gives a higher net present value,, investment Y should be preferred., (ii) Certainly equivalent method, It is also another simplest method for calculating risk in capital budgeting info, reduceds expected cash inflows by certain amounts it can be employed by, multiplying the expected cash inflows by certainly equivalent co-efficient in order, the uncertain cash inflow to certain cash inflows., Exercise 14, There are two projects A and B. Each involves an investment of Rs. 50,000. The, expected cash inflows and the certainly co-efficient are as under:, Project A, Year, , Cash inflows, , Project B, , Certainly, co-efficient, , Cash inflows, , Certainly, Co-efficient, , 1, 2, , 35,000, 30,000, , .8, .7, , 25,000, 35,000, , .9, .8, , 3, , 20,000, , .9, , 20,000, , .7, , Risk-free cutoff rate is 10%.

Project A should, be preferred:, (iii) Sensitivity technique, When cash inflows are sensitive under different circumstances more than one, forecast of the future cash inflows may be made. These inflows may be regarded, on ‘Optimistic’, ‘most likely’ and ‘pessimistic’. Further cash inflows may be, discounted to find out the net present values under these three different situations., If the net present values under the three situations differ widely it implies that, there is a great risk in the project and the investor’s is decision to accept or reject, a project will depend upon his risk bearing activities., Exercise 15, Mr. Selva is considering two mutually exclusive project ‘X’ and ‘Y’. You are required to, advise him about the acceptability of the projects from the following information.

But at the same time during favourable condition, it is more profitable, also. The acceptability of the project will depend upon Mr. Selva’s attitude towards risk. If, he could afford to take higher risk, project Y may be more profitable., (iv) Probability technique, Probability technique refers to the each event of future happenings are assigned, with relative frequency probability. Probability means the likelihood of future, event. The cash inflows of the future years further discounted with the probability., The higher present value may be accepted., Exercise 16, Two mutually exclusive investment proposals are being considered.

INTRODUCTION, Working capital management is also one of the important parts of the financial management., It is concerned with short-term finance of the business concern which is a closely related, trade between profitability and liquidity. Efficient working capital management leads to, improve the operating performance of the business concern and it helps to meet the shortterm liquidity. Hence, study of working capital management is not only an important part, of financial management but also are overall management of the business concern., Working capital is described as the capital which is not fixed but the more common, uses of the working capital is to consider it as the difference between the book value of, current assets and current liabilities., This chapter deals with the following important aspects of the working capital, management., • Meaning of Working Capital, • Concept of Working Capital, • Types of Working Capital, • Needs of Working Capital, • Factors determining Working Capital, • Computation of Working Capital, • Sources of Working Capital, • Working Capital Management Policy, • Working Capital and Banking Committee, , MEANING OF WORKING CAPITAL, Capital of the concern may be divided into two major headings.
Page 166 :
Financial Management, , 150, , Capital, , Fixed Capital, , Working Capital, , Fig. 10.1 Capital of the Business, , Fixed capital means that capital, which is used for long-term investment of the business, concern. For example, purchase of permanent assets. Normally it consists of non-recurring, in nature., Working Capital is another part of the capital which is needed for meeting day to day, requirement of the business concern. For example, payment to creditors, salary paid to, workers, purchase of raw materials etc., normally it consists of recurring in nature. It can, be easily converted into cash. Hence, it is also known as short-term capital., Definitions, According to the definition of Mead, Baker and Malott, “Working Capital means Current, Assets”., According to the definition of J.S.Mill, “The sum of the current asset is the working, capital of a business”., According to the definition of Weston and Brigham, “Working Capital refers to a, firm’s investment in short-term assets, cash, short-term securities, accounts receivables, and inventories”., According to the definition of Bonneville, “Any acquisition of funds which increases, the current assets, increase working capital also for they are one and the same”., According to the definition of Shubin, “Working Capital is the amount of funds, necessary to cover the cost of operating the enterprises”., According to the definition of Genestenberg, “Circulating capital means current assets, of a company that are changed in the ordinary course of business from one form to another,, for example, from cash to inventories, inventories to receivables, receivables to cash”., , CONCEPT OF WORKING CAPITAL, Working capital can be classified or understood with the help of the following two important, concepts.
Page 167 :
Working Capital, , 151, , Gross, Net, Working Working, Capital Capital, , Fig. 10.2 Working Capital Concept, , Gross Working Capital, Gross Working Capital is the general concept which determines the working capital concept., Thus, the gross working capital is the capital invested in total current assets of the business, concern., Gross Working Capital is simply called as the total current assets of the concern., GWC = CA, Net Working Capital, Net Working Capital is the specific concept, which, considers both current assets and, current liability of the concern., Net Working Capital is the excess of current assets over the current liability of the, concern during a particular period., If the current assets exceed the current liabilities it is said to be positive working, capital; it is reverse, it is said to be Negative working capital., NWC = C A – CL, Component of Working Capital, Working capital constitutes various current assets and current liabilities. This can be, illustrated by the following chart.

It is the capital; the business concern must, maintain certain amount of capital at minimum level at all times. The level of Permanent, Capital depends upon the nature of the business. Permanent or Fixed Working Capital will, not change irrespective of time or volume of sales.

It is the amount of capital which is required to, meet the Seasonal demands and some special purposes. It can be further classified into, Seasonal Working Capital and Special Working Capital., The capital required to meet the seasonal needs of the business concern is called as, Seasonal Working Capital. The capital required to meet the special exigencies such as, launching of extensive marketing campaigns for conducting research, etc., , Amount, of Working, Capital, , Temporary, Working, Capital, , Time, , Fig. 10.5 Temporary Working Capital, , Semi Variable Working Capital, Certain amount of Working Capital is in the field level up to a certain stage and after that it, will increase depending upon the change of sales or time., Semi Variable Working Capital, Amount of, Working Capital, , Time, , Fig. 10.6 Semi Variable Working Capital

Financial Management, , 154, , NEEDS OF WORKING CAPITAL, Working Capital is an essential part of the business concern. Every business concern must, maintain certain amount of Working Capital for their day-to-day requirements and meet, the short-term obligations., Working Capital is needed for the following purposes., 1. Purchase of raw materials and spares: The basic part of manufacturing process, is, raw materials. It should purchase frequently according to the needs of the, business concern. Hence, every business concern maintains certain amount as, Working Capital to purchase raw materials, components, spares, etc., 2. Payment of wages and salary: The next part of Working Capital is payment of, wages and salaries to labour and employees. Periodical payment facilities make, employees perfect in their work. So a business concern maintains adequate the, amount of working capital to make the payment of wages and salaries., 3. Day-to-day expenses: A business concern has to meet various expenditures, regarding the operations at daily basis like fuel, power, office expenses, etc., 4. Provide credit obligations: A business concern responsible to provide credit, facilities to the customer and meet the short-term obligation. So the concern must, provide adequate Working Capital., Working Capital Position/ Balanced Working Capital Position., A business concern must maintain a sound Working Capital position to improve the efficiency, of business operation and efficient management of finance. Both excessive and inadequate, Working Capital lead to some problems in the business concern., A. Causes and effects of excessive working capital., (i) Excessive Working Capital leads to unnecessary accumulation of raw, materials, components and spares., (ii) Excessive Working Capital results in locking up of excess Working Capital., (iii) It creates bad debts, reduces collection periods, etc., (iv) It leads to reduce the profits., B. Causes and effects of inadequate working capital, (i) Inadequate working capital cannot buy its requirements in bulk order., (ii) It becomes difficult to implement operating plans and activate the firm’s, profit target., (iii) It becomes impossible to utilize efficiently the fixed assets., (iv) The rate of return on investments also falls with the shortage of Working, Capital., (v) It reduces the overall operation of the business.

Working Capital, , 155, , FACTORS DETERMINING WORKING CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS, Working Capital requirements depends upon various factors. There are no set of rules or, formula to determine the Working Capital needs of the business concern. The following, are the major factors which are determining the Working Capital requirements., Factors, , Factors, , Working, Capital, Determinants, , Factors, , Factors, , Fig. 10.7 Factors Determining Working Capital Requirements, , 1. Nature of business: Working Capital of the business concerns largely depend, upon the nature of the business. If the business concerns follow rigid credit policy, and sell goods only for cash, they can maintain lesser amount of Working Capital., A transport company maintains lesser amount of Working Capital while a, construction company maintains larger amount of Working Capital., 2. Production cycle: Amount of Working Capital depends upon the length of the, production cycle. If the production cycle length is small, they need to maintain, lesser amount of Working Capital. If it is not, they have to maintain large amount, of Working Capital., 3. Business cycle: Business fluctuations lead to cyclical and seasonal changes in the, business condition and it will affect the requirements of the Working Capital. In, the booming conditions, the Working Capital requirement is larger and in the, depression condition, requirement of Working Capital will reduce. Better business, results lead to increase the Working Capital requirements., 4. Production policy: It is also one of the factors which affects the Working Capital, requirement of the business concern. If the company maintains the continues, production policy, there is a need of regular Working Capital. If the production, policy of the company depends upon the situation or conditions, Working Capital, requirement will depend upon the conditions laid down by the company.
Page 172 :
Financial Management, , 156, , 5. Credit policy: Credit policy of sales and purchase also affect the Working Capital, requirements of the business concern. If the company maintains liberal credit, policy to collect the payments from its customers, they have to maintain more, Working Capital. If the company pays the dues on the last date it will create the, cash maintenance in hand and bank., 6. Growth and expansion: During the growth and expansion of the business, concern, Working Capital requirements are higher, because it needs some additional, Working Capital and incurs some extra expenses at the initial stages., 7. Availability of raw materials: Major part of the Working Capital requirements, are largely depend on the availability of raw materials. Raw materials are the basic, components of the production process. If the raw material is not readily available,, it leads to production stoppage. So, the concern must maintain adequate raw, material; for that purpose, they have to spend some amount of Working Capital., 8. Earning capacity: If the business concern consists of high level of earning, capacity, they can generate more Working Capital, with the help of cash from, operation. Earning capacity is also one of the factors which determines the, Working Capital requirements of the business concern., , COMPUTATION (OR ESTIMATION) OF WORKING CAPITAL, Working Capital requirement depends upon number of factors, which are already discussed, in the previous parts. Now the discussion is on how to calculate the Working Capital needs, of the business concern. It may also depend upon various factors but some of the common, methods are used to estimate the Working Capital., A. Estimation of components of working capital method, Working capital consists of various current assets and current liabilities. Hence,, we have to estimate how much current assets as inventories required and how, much cash required to meet the short term obligations., Finance Manager first estimates the assets and required Working Capital for a, particular period., B. Percent of sales method, Based on the past experience between Sales and Working Capital requirements, a, ratio can be determined for estimating the Working Capital requirement in future., It is the simple and tradition method to estimate the Working Capital requirements., Under this method, first we have to find out the sales to Working Capital ratio and, based on that we have to estimate Working Capital requirements. This method also, expresses the relationship between the Sales and Working Capital., C. Operating cycle, Working Capital requirements depend upon the operating cycle of the business., The operating cycle begins with the acquisition of raw material and ends with, the collection of receivables.
Page 173 :
Working Capital, , 157, , Operating cycle consists of the following important stages:, 1. Raw Material and Storage Stage, (R), 2. Work in Process Stage, (W), 3. Finished Goods Stage, (F), 4. Debtors Collection Stage, (D), 5. Creditors Payment Period Stage.

Conservative Working Capital Policy., 2. Moderate Working Capital Policy., 3. Aggressive Working Capital Policy., 1. Conservative working capital policy: Conservative Working Capital Policy refers, to minimize risk by maintaining a higher level of Working Capital. This type of, Working Capital Policy is suitable to meet the seasonal fluctuation of the, manufacturing operation.
Page 176 :
Financial Management, , 160, , 2. Moderate working capital policy: Moderate Working Capital Policy refers to the, moderate level of Working Capital maintainance according to moderate level of sales., It means one percent of change in Working Capital, that is Working Capital is equal, to sales., 3. Aggressive working capital policy: Aggressive Working Capital Policy is one, of the high risky and profitability policies which maintains low level of Aggressive, Working Capital against the high level of sales, in the business concern during, a particular period., Current Assets, , Conservative Policy, Moderate Policy, Aggressive, Policy, , Sales, , Fig. 10.9 Working Capital Policies, , SOURCES OF WORKING CAPITAL, Working Capital requirement can be normalized from short-term and long-term sources., Each source will have both merits and limitations up to certain extract. Uses of Working, Capital may be differing from stage to stage., Sources, , Long-term, , Shares, , Debenture Public, Deposit, , Short-term, , Loans, from, Financial, Institutions, , Retained, Earning, , Arrangements, Bank, Loan and, Credit, , Installment, Credit, Advances, Short-term, Instruments, , Fig. 10.10 Sources of Working Capital
Page 177 :
Working Capital, , 161, , The above sources are also classified into internal sources and external sources of, working capital., Internal sources such as:, • Retained Earnings, • Reserve and Surplus, • Depreciation Funds etc., External sources such as:, • Debentures and Public Deposits, • Loans from Banks and Financial Institutions, • Advances and Credit, • Financial arrangements like Factoring, etc., Determining the Finance Mix, Determining the finance mix is an important part of working capital management. Under, this decision, the relationship among risk, return and liquidity are measured and also which, type of financing is suitable to meet the Working Capital requirements of the business, concern. There are three basic approaches for determining an appropriate Working Capital, finance mix., 1. Hedging or matching approach, 2. Conservative approach, 3. Aggressive approach., Hedging Approach, Hedging approach is also known as matching approach. Under this approach, the, business concern can adopt a financial plan which matches the expected life of assets with, the expected life of the sources of funds raised to finance assets., When the business follows matching approach, long-term finance shall be used to fixed, assets and permanent current assets and short-term financing to finance temporary or, variable assets., Temporary Current Assets, Short-term, Financing, , Assets, Permanent Current Assets, Long-term, Financing, Fixed Assets, Time, , Fig. 10.11 Financing under Matching Approach
Page 178 :
Financial Management, , 162, , Conservative Approach, Under this approach, the entire estimated finance in current assets should be financed, from long-term sources and the short-term sources should be used only for emergency, requirements. This approach is called as “Low Profit – Low Risk” concept., Temporary Current Assets, Short-term, Financing, , Assets, Permanent Current Assets, , Fixed Assets, , Long-term, Financing, , Time, , Fig. 10.12 Conservative Approach, , Aggressive Approach, Under this approach, the entire estimated requirement of current assets should be, financed from short-term sources and even a part of fixed assets financing be financed, from short- term sources. This approach makes the finance mix more risky, less costly and, more profitable., Temporary Current Assets, Short-term, Financing, , Long-term, Financing, , Assets, Permanent Current Assets, , Fixed Assets, Time, , Fig. 10.13 Aggressive Approach

Working Capital, , 163, , WORKING CAPITAL AND BANKING COMMITTEE, Banking finance to working capital requirements is a very important part of the business, concern. Banks provide finance to business concerns to meet the requirements. To regulate, and control bank finance, RBI constitute committees. These committees submit reports, with findings and recommendations to formulate the finance policy of the banks. The, major committee and the recommendations are as follows:, Committee, , Year, , Major Recommendations, , DEHEJIA, , 1969, , Appraisal of credit applications received by banks for granting loan., , TANDON, , 1975, , Banks must carry out the realize appraisal for granting loan Fixation, of norms for bank lending to industry., , CHORE, , 1980, , No bifurcation of cash credit accounts separate limits for peak, level and non peak level requirements., , MARATHE, , 1984, , Second method of lending to industry, introduction of fast track, concept., , KANNAN, , 1997, , Regular conduct with the borrowers, periodical monitoring the credit, disposition., , MODEL QUESTIONS, 1.

Management of Working Capital is also an important part of financial manager. The main, objective of the Working Capital Management is managing the Current Asset and Current, Liabilities effectively and maintaining adequate amount of both Current Asset and Current, Liabilities. Simply it is called Administration of Current Asset and Current Liabilities of the, business concern., Management of key components of working capital like cash, inventories and receivables, assumes paramount importance due to the fact the major potion of working capital gets, blocked in these assets., Meaning, Working capital management is an act of planning, organizing and controlling the, components of working capital like cash, bank balance inventory, receivables, payables,, overdraft and short-term loans., Definition, According to Smith K.V, “Working capital management is concerned with the problems, that arise in attempting to manage the current asset, current liabilities and the interrelationship that exist between them”., According to Weston and Brigham, “Working capital generally stands for excess of, current assets over current liabilities. Working capital management therefore refers to all, aspects of the administration of both current assets and current liabilities”., , INVENTORY MANAGEMENT, Introduction, Inventories constitute the most significant part of current assets of the business concern., It is also essential for smooth running of the business activities.
Page 182 :
166, , Financial Management, , A proper planning of purchasing of raw material, handling, storing and recording is to be, considered as a part of inventory management. Inventory management means, management, of raw materials and related items. Inventory management considers what to purchase,, how to purchase, how much to purchase, from where to purchase, where to store and, when to use for production etc., Meaning, The dictionary meaning of the inventory is stock of goods or a list of goods. In accounting, language, inventory means stock of finished goods. In a manufacturing point of view,, inventory includes, raw material, work in process, stores, etc., Kinds of Inventories, Inventories can be classified into five major categories., A. Raw Material, It is basic and important part of inventories. These are goods which have not yet, been committed to production in a manufacturing business concern., B. Work in Progress, These include those materials which have been committed to production process, but have not yet been completed., C. Consumables, These are the materials which are needed to smooth running of the manufacturing, process., D. Finished Goods, These are the final output of the production process of the business concern. It, is ready for consumers., E. Spares, It is also a part of inventories, which includes small spares and parts., Objectives of Inventory Management, Inventory occupy 30–80% of the total current assets of the business concern. It is also, very essential part not only in the field of Financial Management but also it is closely, associated with production management. Hence, in any working capital decision regarding, the inventories, it will affect both financial and production function of the concern. Hence,, efficient management of inventories is an essential part of any kind of manufacturing process, concern., The major objectives of the inventory management are as follows:, • To efficient and smooth production process., • To maintain optimum inventory to maximize the profitability., • To meet the seasonal demand of the products.
Page 183 :
Working Capital Management, , •, •, •, •, , To, To, To, To, , 167, , avoid price increase in future., ensure the level and site of inventories required., plan when to purchase and where to purchase, avoid both over stock and under stock of inventory., , Techniques of Inventory Management, Inventory management consists of effective control and administration of inventories., Inventory control refers to a system which ensures supply of required quantity and quality, of inventories at the required time and at the same time prevent unnecessary investment, in inventories. It needs the following important techniques., Inventory management techniques may be classified into various types:, Inventory Management Technique, , Techniques Based on, Order Quantity, , Techniques Based on, the Classification, , ABC, Analysis, , Determination, of Stock Level, , Determination, of Stock, , VED, Analysis, , HML, Analysis, , Techniques Based on, the Records, , Aging, Schedule, , Inventory, Report, , Inventory, Budget, , Economic Order, Quality, , Fig. 11.1 Inventory Management Techniques, , A. Techniques based on the order quantity of Inventories, Order quantity of inventories can be determined with the help of the following, techniques:, Stock Level, Stock level is the level of stock which is maintained by the business concern at all times., Therefore, the business concern must maintain optimum level of stock to smooth running, of the business process. Different level of stock can be determined based on the volume of, the stock.
Page 184 :
Financial Management, , 168, , Minimum Level, The business concern must maintain minimum level of stock at all times. If the stocks are, less than the minimum level, then the work will stop due to shortage of material., Re-order Level, Re-ordering level is fixed between minimum level and maximum level. Re-order level is the, level when the business concern makes fresh order at this level., Re-order level=maximum consumption × maximum Re-order period., Maximum Level, It is the maximum limit of the quantity of inventories, the business concern must maintain., If the quantity exceeds maximum level limit then it will be overstocking., Maximum level = Re-order level + Re-order quantity, – (Minimum consumption × Minimum delivery period), Danger Level, It is the level below the minimum level. It leads to stoppage of the production process., Danger level=Average consumption ×, , Maximum re-order period for, emergency purchase, , Average Stock Level, It is calculated such as,, Average stock level= Minimum stock level +, , ½ of re-order quantity, maximum level, , 75, 500, , Optimum Level/Re-order Level, Average Stock Level, , Stock Level, Minimum Level, 25, 10, , Danger Level, , 0, Time, , Fig. 11.2 Determining the Stock Level, , Lead Time, Lead time is the time normally taken in receiving delivery after placing orders with suppliers., The time taken in processing the order and then executing it is known as lead time.
Page 185 :
Working Capital Management, , 169, , Safety Stock, Safety stock implies extra inventories that can be drawn down when actual lead time and/, or usage rates are greater than expected. Safety stocks are determined by opportunity cost, and carrying cost of inventories. If the business concerns maintain low level of safety, stock, it will lead to larger opportunity cost and the larger quantity of safety stock involves, higher carrying costs., Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), EOQ refers to the level of inventory at which the total cost of inventory comprising ordering, cost and carrying cost. Determining an optimum level involves two types of cost such as, ordering cost and carrying cost. The EOQ is that inventory level that minimizes the total, of ordering of carrying cost., EOQ can be calculated with the help of the mathematical formula:, EOQ =, , 2ab/c, , Where,, a = Annual usage of inventories (units), b = Buying cost per order, c = Carrying cost per unit, Minimum, Total Cost, , Carrying Cost, , Cost, , Ordering Cost, Q, , Order Size, , Fig. 11.3 Economic Order Quantity, , Exercise 1, (a) Find out the economic order quantity and the number of orders per year from, the following information:, Annual consumption:, 36,000 units, Purchase price per units: Rs. 54
Page 186 :
Financial Management, , 170, , Ordering cost per order: Rs. 150, Inventory carrying cost is 20% of the average inventory., Solution, Inventory =, , 2AO, C, A = 36,000 units, O = Rs. 150, C = 20% of 54×10×8, , 2×36,000×150 = 1,000 units, EOQ = 1,000 units, Exercise 2, From the following information calculate, (1) Re-order level (2) Maximum level, (3) Minimum level (4) Average level, Normal usage: 100 units per week, Maximum usage: 150 units per week, Minimum usage: 50 units per week, Re-order quantity (EOQ) 500: units, Log in time: 5 to 7 weeks, Solution, (1) Re-order Level, = Maximum consumption × Maximum Re-order period, = 150×7=1050 units, (2) Maximum Level, = Re-order level+Re-order quantity, –( Minimum consumption×Minimum delivery period), = 1050 + 500 – (50 × 5) = 1300 units, (3) Minimum Level, = Re-order level – (Normal consumption×Normal delivery period), = 1050 – (100 × 6 ) = 450 units, (4) Average Level, =, , =, , Maximum level + Minimum level, 2, 1300 + 450, = 875 units., 2

Working Capital Management, , 171, , TECHNIQUES BASED ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF INVENTORIES, A-B-C analysis, It is the inventory management techniques that divide inventory into three categories, based on the value and volume of the inventories; 10% of the inventory’s item contributs, to 70% of value of consumption and this category is known as A category. About 20% of, the inventory item contributes about 20% of value of consumption and this category is, called category B and 70% of inventory item contributes only 10% of value of consumption, and this category is called C category., Inventory Breakdown Between Value and Volume, Category, , Volume (%), , Value (%), , A, , 10, , 70, , B, , 20, , 20, , C, , 70, , 10, , Total, , 100, , 100, , ABC analysis can be explained with the help of the following Graphical presentation., , Value of, Inventory (%), , A, , B, , C, , Volume of Inventory (%), , Fig. 11.4 ABC Analysis, , Aging Schedule of Inventories, Inventories are classified according to the period of their holding and also this method, helps to identify the movement of the inventories. Hence, it is also called as, FNSD analysis—, where,, F, N, S, D, , = Fast moving inventories, = Normal moving inventories, = Slow moving inventories, = Dead moving inventories
Page 188 :
Financial Management, , 172, , This analysis is mainly calculated for the purpose of taking disposal decision of the, inventories., VED Analysis, This technique is ideally suited for spare parts in the inventory management like ABC, analysis. Inventories are classified into three categories on the basis of usage of the, inventories., V = Vital item of inventories, E = Essential item of inventories, D = Desirable item of inventories, HML Analysis, Under this analysis, inventories are classified into three categories on the basis of the value, of the inventories., H = High value of inventories, M = Medium value of inventories, L = Low value of inventories, , TECHNIQUES ON THE BASIS OF RECORDS, A. Inventory budget, It is a kind of functional budget which facilitates the estimated inventory required for the, business concern during a particular period. This budget is prepared based on the past, experience., B. Inventory reports, Preparation of periodical inventory reports provides information regarding the order level,, quantity to be procured and all other information related to inventories. On the basis of, these reports, Management takes necessary decision regarding inventory control and, Management in the business concern., Valuation of Inventories, Inventories are valued at different methods depending upon the situation and nature of, manufacturing process. Some of the major methods of inventory valuation are mentioned, as follows:, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., , First in First Out Method (FIFO), Last in First Out Method (LIFO), Highest in First Out Method (HIFO), Nearest in First Out Method (NIFO), Average Price Method

Cash is one of the important and key parts of the, current assets., Cash is the money which a business concern can disburse immediately without any, restriction. The term cash includes coins, currency, cheques held by the business concern, and balance in its bank accounts. Management of cash consists of cash inflow and outflows,, cash flow within the concern and cash balance held by the concern etc., Motives for Holding Cash, 1. Transaction motive, It is a motive for holding cash or near cash to meet routine cash requirements, to finance transaction in the normal course of business. Cash is needed to make, purchases of raw materials, pay expenses, taxes, dividends etc., 2. Precautionary motive, It is the motive for holding cash or near cash as a cushion to meet unexpected, contingencies. Cash is needed to meet the unexpected situation like, floods, strikes etc.

Financial Management, , 176, , 3. Speculative motive, It is the motive for holding cash to quickly take advantage of opportunities, typically outside the normal course of business. Certain amount of cash is needed, to meet an opportunity to purchase raw materials at a reduced price or make, purchase at favorable prices., 4. Compensating motive, It is a motive for holding cash to compensate banks for providing certain services, or loans. Banks provide variety of services to the business concern, such as, clearance of cheque, transfer of funds etc., Cash Management Techniques, Managing cash flow constitutes two important parts:, A. Speedy Cash Collections., B. Slowing Disbursements., Speedy Cash Collections, Business concern must concentrate in the field of Speedy Cash Collections from customers., For that, the concern prepares systematic plan and refined techniques. These techniques, aim at, the customer who should be encouraged to pay as quickly as possible and the, payment from customer without delay. Speedy Cash Collection business concern applies, some of the important techniques as follows:, Prompt Payment by Customers, Business concern should encourage the customer to pay promptly with the help of, offering discounts, special offer etc. It helps to reduce the delaying payment of customers, and the firm can avoid delays from the customers. The firms may use some of the techniques, for prompt payments like billing devices, self address cover with stamp etc., Early Conversion of Payments into Cash, Business concern should take careful action regarding the quick conversion of the, payment into cash. For this purpose, the firms may use some of the techniques like postal, float, processing float, bank float and deposit float., Concentration Banking, It is a collection procedure in which payments are made to regionally dispersed collection, centers, and deposited in local banks for quick clearing. It is a system of decentralized, billing and multiple collection points., Lock Box System, It is a collection procedure in which payers send their payment or cheques to a nearby, post box that is cleared by the firm’s bank. Several times that the bank deposit the cheque
Page 193 :
Working Capital Management, , 177, , in the firms account. Under the lock box system, business concerns hire a post office lock, box at important collection centers where the customers remit payments. The local banks, are authorized to open the box and pick up the remittances received from the customers., As a result, there is some extra savings in mailing time compared to concentration bank., Slowing Disbursement, An effective cash management is not only in the part of speedy collection of its cash and, receivables but also it should concentrate to slowing their disbursement of cash to the, customers or suppliers. Slowing disbursement of cash is not the meaning of delaying the, payment or avoiding the payment. Slowing disbursement of cash is possible with the help, of the following methods:, 1. Avoiding the early payment of cash, The firm should pay its payable only on the last day of the payment. If the firm, avoids early payment of cash, the firm can retain the cash with it and that can, be used for other purpose., 2. Centralised disbursement system, Decentralized collection system will provide the speedy cash collections. Hence, centralized disbursement of cash system takes time for collection from our accounts, as well as we can pay on the date., Cash Management Models, Cash management models analyse methods which provide certain framework as to how, the cash management is conducted in the firm. Cash management models are the, development of the theoretical concepts into analytical approaches with the mathematical, applications. There are three cash management models which are very popular in the field, of finance., 1. Baumol model, The basic objective of the Baumol model is to determine the minimum cost amount of cash, conversion and the lost opportunity cost., It is a model that provides for cost efficient transactional balances and assumes that the, demand for cash can be predicated with certainty and determines the optimal conversion size., Total conversion cost per period can be calculated with the help of the following formula:, t=, , Tb, C, , where,, T = Total transaction cash needs for the period, b = Cost per conversion, C = Value of marketable securities
Page 194 :
Financial Management, , 178, , Opportunity cost can be calculated with the help of the following formula;, i=, , C, 2, , where,, i = interest rate earned, C/2 = Average cash balance, Optimal cash conversion can be calculated with the help of the following formula;, C=, , 2bT, i, , where,, C, b, T, i, , =, =, =, =, , Optimal conversion amount, Cost of conversion into cash per lot or transaction, Projected cash requirement, interest rate earned, , 2. Miller-Orr model, This model was suggested by Miller Orr. This model is to determine the optimum cash, balance level which minimises the cost of management of cash. Miller-Orr Model can be, calculated with the help of the following formula;, , C=, , bE (N), + iE (M), t, , where,, C=, b=, E(M) =, E (N) =, t=, i=, , Total cost of cash management, fixed cost per conversion, expected average daily cash balance, expected number of conversion, Number of days in the period, lost opportunity cost, , 3. Orgler’s model, Orgler model provides for integration of cash management with production and other, aspects of the business concern. Multiple linear programming is used to determine the, optimal cash management., Orgler’s model is formulated, based on the set of objectives of the firm and specifing the, set of constrains of the firm.

Working Capital Management, , 179, , RECEIVABLE MANAGEMENT, The term receivable is defined as debt owed to the concern by customers arising from sale, of goods or services in the ordinary course of business. Receivables are also one of the, major parts of the current assets of the business concerns. It arises only due to credit sales, to customers, hence, it is also known as Account Receivables or Bills Receivables., Management of account receivable is defined as the process of making decision resulting, to the investment of funds in these assets which will result in maximizing the overall return, on the investment of the firm., The objective of receivable management is to promote sales and profit until that point is, reached where the return on investment in further funding receivables is less than the cost, of funds raised to finance that additional credit., The costs associated with the extension of credit and accounts receivables are identified, as follows:, A. Collection Cost, B. Capital Cost, C. Administrative Cost, D. Default Cost., Collection Cost, This cost incurred in collecting the receivables from the customers to whom credit sales, have been made., Capital Cost, This is the cost on the use of additional capital to support credit sales which alternatively, could have been employed elsewhere., Administrative Cost, This is an additional administrative cost for maintaining account receivable in the form of, salaries to the staff kept for maintaining accounting records relating to customers, cost of, investigation etc., Default Cost, Default costs are the over dues that cannot be recovered. Business concern may not be, able to recover the over dues because of the inability of the customers., Factors Considering the Receivable Size, Receivables size of the business concern depends upon various factors. Some of the important, factors are as follows:
Page 196 :
Financial Management, , 180, , 1. Sales Level, Sales level is one of the important factors which determines the size of receivable of the firm. If, the firm wants to increase the sales level, they have to liberalise their credit policy and terms and, conditions. When the firms maintain more sales, there will be a possibility of large size of receivable., 2. Credit Policy, Credit policy is the determination of credit standards and analysis. It may vary from firm to, firm or even some times product to product in the same industry. Liberal credit policy leads, to increase the sales volume and also increases the size of receivable. Stringent credit policy, reduces the size of the receivable., 3. Credit Terms, Credit terms specify the repayment terms required of credit receivables, depend upon the, credit terms, size of the receivables may increase or decrease. Hence, credit term is one of, the factors which affects the size of receivable., 4. Credit Period, It is the time for which trade credit is extended to customer in the case of credit sales., Normally it is expressed in terms of ‘Net days’., 5. Cash Discount, Cash discount is the incentive to the customers to make early payment of the due date. A, special discount will be provided to the customer for his payment before the due date., 6. Management of Receivable, It is also one of the factors which affects the size of receivable in the firm. When the management, involves systematic approaches to the receivable, the firm can reduce the size of receivable., Exercise 4, The board of directors of Aravind mills limited request you to prepare a statement, showing the working capital requirements for a level of activity of 30,000 units of output for, the year.

However, the, word ‘factoring’ has a Roman root. It is derived from the Latin verb ‘facio’ which can be, translated as “he who does things”. In Roman times this referred to agent of a property, owner, i.e., his business manager. Though the root word has nothing to do with the industry,, as they attempt to help their clients through their financial problem., Factoring in United States, Factoring arose in the United States during 19th century, as direct result of the inability of, manufacturers to maintain constant and timely communications with their sales forces in, the field. At that time, as the case today, the sales force was paid by communications. If all, sales were at the risk of the manufacturer, the salesman had no incentive to exercise prudence, in connection with whom to sell to on credit., On the other hand, the distant manufacturer was not in the position to make the credit, risk on sales. The risk of defective or non-conforming merchandise remained with the, manufacturer. The credit risk was now separated from disputes as to quality, workmanship, and conformity of goods. Soon after, the salesman began to act as independent sales agencies., It was common for them to act for more than one manufacturer. Still later the sales function, was separated from the credit function and “Traditional Factoring” as the people know, it, had, at that point, developed in the United States., Factoring in India, Banks provide generally bill collection and bill discounting and with recourse. They provide, working capital finance based on these bills classified by amounts maturity wise. Such bills, if accumulated in large quantities will burden the liquidity and solvency position of the, company and reduces the credit limits from the banks. It is therefore felt necessary that the, company assigns these book debts to a factor for taking them off from the balance sheet., This reduces the workload, increases the solvency and improves the liquidity position of, the company.

Financial Management, , 208, , In 1998 a study group under the chairmanship of C.S. Kalyana Sundram was constituted, to examine the feasibility of factoring services in India, their constitution, organizational, set up and scope of activities. The group recommended the setting up of specialized agencies, or subsidiaries for providing the factoring services in India with a professional expertise in, credit assessment, debt collection and management of sales ledger, and other related services., Defaults or delays in collection and repayment can still remain which is the risk to be, taken by the factor for a fee. The group has estimated a good potential for this service to, the tune of about Rs. 4000 crores mainly emerging a collection problem, and delays in, collection and consequential liquidity problems., Later the Vaghul Committee report on money market reforms has confirmed the need, for factoring services to be developed in India as part of the money market instruments., Many new instruments were already introduced like Participation certificates, Commercial, papers, Certificate of deposits etc., but the factoring service has not developed to any, significant extent in India., The Reserve Bank allowed some banks to set up subsidiaries on a zonal basis to take care, of the requirements of companies in need of such service. Thus Canara Bank, State Bank of, India, Punjab National Bank and a few other banks have been permitted to set up jointly, some factor, for Eastern, Western, Northern, and Southern Zones. The progress of the activity, did not show any worth while dimension, so far., Modus of Operations, If a company wants to factor its receivables it submits a list of customers, their credit, rating, amount involved in maturity and other terms. If the factor scrutinizes the list of, buyers and they are in the approved list, the factor gives its decision of the clients and the, amounts they may take all receivables on wholesale discounting basis. The factor then, takes all the documents in respect of approved list and pays up to 80% to 90% of the, amount due less commission to the company which in turn removes these instruments,, from base of accounts and shows cash flow as against bills receivables written off., Factoring services rendered the following services:, 1., 2., 3., 4., 5., 6., , Purchase of book debts and receivables., Administration of sales ledger of the clients., Prepayments of debts partially or fully., Collection of book debts or receivables or with or without documents., Covering the credit risk of the suppliers., Dealing in book debts of customers without recourse., , Why Factoring?, Factoring is one of the most important and unavoidable part of the business concern which, meets the short-term financial requirement of the concern.

Financial Management, , 210, , The following are the steps for factoring:, 1. The customer places an order with the seller (client)., 2.

The buyer settles the invoices on the expiry of the credit period allowed., 9. The balance 20% less the cost of factoring is paid by the factor to the client., Types of factoring, (1) Notified factoring: Here, the customer is intimated about the assignment of debt, to a factor, also directed to make payments to the factor instead of to the firm., This is invariably done by a legend and the invoice has been assigned to or sold, to the factor., (2) Non-notified or confidential factoring: Under this facility, the supplier/factor, arrangement is not declared to the customer unless or until there is a breach of, the agreement on the part of the client, or exceptionally, where the factor considers, himself to be at risk., (3) With recourse or without recourse factoring: Under recourse arrangements,, the client will carry the credit risk in respect of debts sold to the factor. In without, recourse factoring, the bad debts are borne by the factor., (4) Bank Participation Factoring: The client creates a floating charge on the, factoring reserves in favour of banks and borrow against these reserves., (5) Export Factoring: There is usually the presence of two factors: an export factor, and an import factor. The former buys the invoices of a client exporter and assumes, the risk in case of default by the overseas customers. Because of distance, different, condition or lake of information, the export factor usually forms out to an agent,, known as the import factor, the administrative job of servicing the debts owed to, its exporting clients., , FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT, According to the definition given by JMF, FDI is the category of international investment, that reflects the objective of a resident entity in one economy (direct investor or parent, enterprise) by obtaining a ‘lasting interest’ and control in an enterprise resident in another, economy (direct investment enterprise).

The Primary objective of nationalization was to protect the interest, of policy-holders against misuses and embezzlement of funds by private insurance companies., Secondly, the object of nationalization was to direct investment of funds in government, securities, leaving a meager part for the private sector., What marks and distinguishes the LIC from other long-term financial institutions is, this that it discharges the two fold function of mobilization of long-term savings and their, effective channelisation as well. The other agencies are suppliers of fund obtained from, government and the Reserve Bank of India., Role of LIC, The activities of the LIC can be broadly classified into two categories. First, it mobilizes longterm contractual savings. Its policy-holders view the LIC as a trustee of their funds, a source, of emergency fund to guard against any financial misfortune and a way to accumulates, funds by the time of retirement from work. As an agency it is designed to the inculcation of, savings for the sake of rainy days.
Page 258 :
242, , Financial Management, , During the last forty years of its operations, there has been concentration of colossal, funds in hands of this monolithic state owned corporation., The resources thus obtained by the LIC from policy-holders are invested in diverse, ways for different purposes. Basically LIC is an investment institution. It is a big investor, of funds in government marketable securities. Since April, 1975 the amended Section 27A, of the Insurance Act, 1938 the LIC is required to invest to not less than 50% of its accruals, of premium income in government marketable securities. Of this not less than 25% in, central government securities. Besides it has to give loans to approved authorities like, electricity boards or state government for socially oriented schemes like electricity, housing,, water supply etc. These loans and investments should not exceed 87.5 percent of accretion, to the controlled fund of the LIC., The remaining 12.5 percent can be made to the private sector directly in the form of, purchase of shares and debentures. Besides it grants loans to the private corporate sector, and finances projects by subscribing shares and debentures of private industries. Its, contribution to financing of industries in the private corporate sector is also indirect. The, investment in the share capital and bonds of IFCI, SFCs, UTI and IDBI flow back to private, sector in the form of direct loans. The LIC is also engaged in underwriting new issues., The LIC plays an important role in the securities market in India. It purchases even, when the market is dull (bearish) and prices are low in order to reap the benefit of future, price appreciation. Nor does it usually sell shares from its stock when the market is spturn at, higher prices., Although Income Tax concessions provide incentive to higher income groups through, LIC policies, the insuring public does not get the real value of its long-term savings because, of chronic inflation. Barring risk coverage, the rate of return offered by LIC is much lower, compared to other savings media. It is true LIC has grown at a fast speed yet it can grow at a, faster rate if it can make the message of life insurance more attractive by its operational, efficiency and innovative attitude., GENERAL INSURANCE COMPANIES, The General Insurance Corporation of India(GIC) was formed as a government company, in 1972 under the General Insurance Business (Nationalization) Act 1972. Before, nationalization a few big companies and about 100 small companies were in this business., All these units were merged together and reorganized into four subsidies of GIC. They are:, • National Insurance Company, • New India Assurance Company, • Oriental Fire and General Insurance Company, • United India Fire and General Insurance Company., On January 1, 1973 of all the Indian insurance companies were transferred to the GIC., The feature of the GIC is this that it sell insurance service against some forms of risk like
Page 259 :
Financial System, , 243, , loss of physical assets of various kinds from fire or accident and against personal sickness, and accident. The insurer just purchases a service and not any financial asset. They draw, vast resources in the other approved securities., As a financial intermediary, the GIC invests funds in a prudent way looking after national, priorities and meeting unforeseen claims under their policies. The GIC is required by law, to hold central government securities to the tune of 25 percent of new accrual and at least, 10% in other approved securities., The companies can invest in the shares and debentures of the corporate sector. But, shall not exceed 5%of the subscribed capital of a single company. It also participates in the, underwriting of new issues and in granting term loans to industries., , UNIT TRUST OF INDIA, Origin, Unit trust was set up in 1964 by a special act passed in the parliament under the name of, Unit Trust of India Act 1963, for the purpose to promote and regulate the mutual fund, activities in India., Capital, The initial capital of Unit Trust of India was Rs. 5 crores which was contributed by Reserve, Bank of India, Life Insurance Corporation, State Bank of India, Schedule Commercial Banks, and foreign banks.

It, may be variously classified as primary and secondary, money markets and capital markets,, organised and unorganised markets official and parallel markets, and foreign and domestic, markets. Financial market provides money and capital supply to the industrial concern, as well as promote the savings and investments habits of the public. In simple censes, financial market is a market which deals with various financial instruments (share,, debenture, bonds, treasury bills, commercial bills etc.) and financial services (merchant, banking, underwriting etc)., Financial markets may be divided into two major classifications:, A. Capital market B. Money market

The development of a effective capital market depends upon the availability, of savings, well organised financial system and the entrepreneurship quantities of its people., Capital market is a market for long-term funds, just as the money market is the market, for short-term funds. It refers to all the facilities and the institutional arrangements for, borrowing and lending term funds (medium-term and long-term funds). It does not deal in, capital for purpose of investment., The demand for long-term money capital comes predominantly from private sector, manufacturing industries and agriculture and from the government largely for the purpose, of economic development. As the central and state governments investment are not only on, economic overheads as transport, irrigation and power development but also on basic, industries and some times, even consumer goods industries, they require substantial sums, from the capital market. The supply of funds for the capital market comes largely from, individual savers, corporate savings, banks, insurance companies, specialized financing, agencies and government., Among institutions, we may refer to the following:, 1. Commercial banks are important investors, but are largely interested in government, securities and, to a small extent, debentures of companies., 2. LIC and GIC are growing importance in the Indian capital market, though their, major interest is still in government securities., 3. Provident funds constitute a major medium of savings but their investments are, mostly in government securities.
Page 263 :
Financial System, , 247, , 4. Special institutions set up since Independence, viz. the IFCI, ICICI, IDBI, UTI etc.,, all these aim at providing long-term capital to the private sector., The capital market in India can be classified into, •, •, •, •, , Gilt-edged Market on Government and Semi-government Securities;, Industrial Securities Market;, Development Financial Institutions (DFI), and, Non-banking Financial Companies (NBFC), Capital Market in India, , Gilt-edged, Market, , Industrial Securities, Market, , New Issues, Market, , IFCI, , Merchant, Banks, , Stock, Exchange, , ICICI, , Mutual, Funds, , Development Financial, Institutions (DFI), , Financial, Intermediaries, , Old Issues, Market, , SFCs, , Leasing, Companies, , IDBI, , IIBI, , Venture, Capital, , UTI, , Others, Companies, , Fig. 13.8 Capital Market in India, , The Gilt-edged market is the market for Government and semi-government securities,, which carry fixed interest rates and backed by RBI . The securities traded in this market, are stable in value and are much sought after by banks and other institutions., The industrial securities market is the market for equities and debentures of, companies of the corporate sector. This market further classified into (a) New Issues, Markets; for raising fresh capital in the form of shares and debentures, and (b) Old Issues, Market; for buying and selling shares and debentures of existing companies–this market is, commonly known as the stock market or stock exchange., Both markets are equally important, but often the new issues market will be facilitated, only when there are abundant facilities for transfer of existing securities. The capital market, is also classified into Primary Capital Market and Secondary Capital Market., The primary capital market refers to the new issues market, which relates to the, issue of shares, preference shares and debentures of non-government public limited companies,, and also to the raising of fresh capital by Government companies, and also to the raising of, fresh capital by Government companies and the issue of public sector bonds.
Page 264 :
248, , Financial Management, , The secondary capital market, on the other hand, is the market for old or already, issued securities. It is composed of Industry Security Market or the stock exchange in, where industrial securities are bought and sold, and the Gilt-edged Market where the, government and semi-government, securities are traded., MIBOR and MIBID, On June 15, 1998 National Stock Exchange launched two new Reference Rates for the, loans of Inter-Bank Call Money Market. These rates are Mumbai Inter-Bank Offer Rate, (MIBOR) and Mumbai Inter-Bank Bid Rate (MIBID)., MIBOR will be the indicator of Landing Rate for loans which MIBID will be the landing, rate of receipts., Share Market, India has a well developed share market system, which is one of the best in the developing, world. It has one of the oldest stock markets in Asia. The first stock exchange was established, in 1875 in Bombay (Mumbai), when the stock brokers against at their plight following the, severe depression in securities, decided to form an association to protect the character and, interest of native share and stock brokers., India has the second largest share holding population with around 1.5 crore shareholders;, next only to the United States of America which has about 5 crore shareholders. India is, significantly ahead of countries like Japan, United Kingdom and France in this regard, the, Indian figure may look impressive, but it constitutes only 1.5 percent of the total population., The country also has a large number of debenture holders, whose figure stands at around, 50 lakhs (5 million). Here, it is important to note that most of the debenture holders are, prospective shareholders as they are waiting for the conversion of their debentures into, equity shares. The enhanced interest in capital market is a result of increasing, industrialization, growing awareness among people and globalization of the capital market., Indian capital market can be divided into primary market (new issues market) and secondary, market., Primary Market, The primary market refers to the set up by which the industry raises funds by issuing, different types of securities. These securities are issued directly to the investors, both, individual and institutions. The primary market discharges the important function of, transfer of savings, especially of the individual, Government and public sector undertakings., In the primary market, the new issues of securities are presented in the form of Public, issues, Right issues and Private Placements. Its efficient operation is made possible by the, financial intermediaries and financial institutions, who arrange long-term financial, transactions for the clients. Issues of the securities in the primary market may be made, through (i) Prospectus, (ii) Offer for sale, and (iii) Private placement. The securities offered
Page 265 :
Financial System, , 249, , to the public through prospectus are directly subscribed by the investor. The issuing, companies widely publicise the offer through various media. The Securities Exchange, Board of India (SEBI) has classified various issues in three groups i.e., New issues, Right, issues and Preferential issues., The SEBI has issued various guidelines regarding proper disclosure for investor’s, protection. These guidelines are required to be duly observed by the companies making issue, of capital. The guidelines issued by the SEBI broadly cover the requirements regarding issue, of capital by the companies. The guidelines are applicable to all the companies after the, repeal of Controller of Capital Issues (CCI ) Act 1947., The boom in the primary capital market, that started in the mid-eighties and accelerated, thereafter, started slowing down by 1995. There are several reasons for this slowing down of, resource mobilization in the primary market. In particular, the low return on new issues,, some resulting in stock market fiasco, seems to have shattered the confidence of the investors., Secondary Market, The secondary market refers to the network system for the subsequent sale and purchase, of securities. An investor can apply and get allotted, a specified number of securities by the, issuing company in the primary market. However, once allotted, the securities can thereafter, be sold and purchased in the secondary market only., A security emerges in the primary market, but its subsequent movement takes place in, the secondary market. Secondary market is represented by stock exchanges in the capital, market. Stock exchanges provide an organized market place for investors to trade in securities., A stock exchange permits the prices of the securities to be determined by the market forces., The bidding process flows from demand and supply, underlying each security. This means, that the specific price of a security is determined, more or less, in the manner of an auction., Stock exchange provides a market in which the members (share brokers) and investors, participate to ensure liquidity to the latter. At present, there are 22 stock exchanges operating, in India. Approved Stock Exchanges in India as follows:, 1. Meerut Stock Exchange, Meerut (UP), 2. UP Stock Exchange, Kanpur (UP), 3. Mumbai Stock Exchange, Mumbai (Maharashtra), 4. Over the Counter Exchange of India, Mumbai (Maharashtra), 5. National Stock Exchange, Mumbai (Maharashtra), 6. Pune Stock Exchange, Pune (Maharashtra), 7. Ahmedabad Stock Exchange, Ahmedabad (Gujarat), 8. Sourashtra Stock Exchange, Rajkot (Gujarat), 9. Vadodara Stock Exchange, Vadodara (Gujarat), 10. Bangalore Stock Exchange, Bangalore(Karnataka), 11. Canara Stock Exchange, Mangalore (Karnataka)

Cochin Stock Exchange, Cochin (Kerala), Secondary market in India got a boost when Over The Counter Exchange of India, (OTCEI) and National Stock Exchange (NSE) were established. It may be noted that NSE, and OTCEI have been established by the all India Financial Institution, while other stock, exchanges are in the form of associations., Methods of Raising Capital, Shares: Otherwise known as ‘ordinary shares’ these are shares in the issued capital of, company which are held on terms that make the holder a ‘member’ of the company, entitled, to vote at annual meetings and elect directors, and to participate through dividends in the, profits of the company. The holders of the ordinary shares carry the residual risk of the, business: they rank after debenture holders and preference shareholders for the payment, of dividends and they are liable for losses, although this liability is limited to the value of, the share and to the limit of guarantee given by them., Debentures: Fixed-interest securities issued by limited companies in return for, long-term loans. The term is sometimes also used to refer to any title on a secured interest–, bearing loan. Debentures are dated for redemption (i.e. repayment of their nominal value, by the borrower to the holder), debentures are usually secured. Debenture interest must, be paid whether the company makes a profit or not. In the event of non-payment debenture, holders can force liquidation and rank ahead of all shareholders in their claims on the, company’s assets. The interest which debentures bear depends partly on long-term rates, of interest prevailing at the time and partly on the type of debenture, but will in any case,, because of the lower risk involved is less than borne by preference shares. Debenture, shares are most appropriate for financing companies whose profits are stable and which, have substantial fixed assets, such property companies.
Page 267 :
Financial System, , 251, , Convertible debentures: These carry an option at a fixed future date to convert the, stock into ordinary shares at a fixed price. This option is compensated for by a lower rate, of interest than an ordinary debenture, but convertible debentures are attractive since, they offer the investor, without sacrificing his security, the prospect of purchasing equity, shares cheaply in the future. For this reason, convertible debentures are issued at a time, when it is difficult to raise capital either by equity or fixed interest securities. There are, three ways in which a company may raise capital in the primary market., PUBLIC ISSUE, By far the most important mode of issuing securities, a public issue involves sale of securities, to the public at large. A company making a public issue informs the public about it through, statutory announcements in the newspapers, makes application forms available through, stock brokers and others and keeps the subscription open for a period of three to seven, days. If the issue is over-subscribed, the pattern of allotment is decided in consultation, with the stock exchange where the issue is proposed to be listed., After the allotment pattern is finalized the company mails the allotment advice/letter, alongwith refund order, if any. This is supposed to be done within 10 weeks of the closure, of subscription. If the full amount is not asked for at the time of allotment, the balance is, called in one or two calls later. The letter of allotment is exchangeable for share certificates, (or debenture certificates, as the case may be), after it is duly stamped by the bank where, the balance payment is made., Of course, if the allottee wants he can sell the letter of allotment itself by transmitting, it alongwith a transfer deed. If the allottee fails to pay to call money as and when called by, the company, the shares are liable to be forfeited. In such a case, the allottee is not eligible, for any refund of the amounts already paid. While a new company set up by promoters, without a track record is required to issue its shares at par, other companies are allowed to, make a public issue at a premium., Right Issue, A right issue involves selling securities in the primary market by issuing rights to the, existing shareholders. When a company issues additional equity capital, it has to be offered, in the first instance to the existing shareholders on a pro rata (proportional) basis. This is, required under Section 81 of the Companies Act 1956. The shareholders however, may by, a special resolution forfeit this right, partially or fully, to enable a company to issue additional, capital to the public., Private Placement, In a private placement, funds are raised in the primary market by issuing securities privately, to some investors without resorting to underwriting (insurance against risk by a guarantor)., The investors in this case may by financial institutions, commercial banks, other companies,, shareholders of promoting companies, and friends and associates of the promoters.
Page 268 :
Financial Management, , 252, , Group A and Group B Shares, The listed shares are divided into two categories: Group A shares (also referred to as, cleared securities or specified shares) and Group B shares (also referred to as non-cleared, securities or non-specified shares)., For Group A shares, the facility for carrying forward a transaction from one account, period to another is available; for Group B shares, it is not. Group A shares basically represent, large, well-established companies that have a broad investor base and are very actively traded., Since transactions in these shares can be carried forward, these shares attract a lot of, speculative trading., This seems to be the reason why these shares, other things being equal, tend to command, higher price-earning multiples. This is clear from the fact that whenever a share is moved, from Group B to Group A, its market price rises; likewise, when a share is shifted from group, A to Group B market price declines., The Mumbai Stock Exchange employs several criteria for shifting stocks from the, non-specified list to the specified list. The key ones are that the company must have an, equity base of Rs. 10 crore, a market capitalization of Rs. 25–30 crore, a public holding of, 35 to 40 percent, a shareholding population of 15,000 to 20,000 a dividend paying status, and a good growth potential., , SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INDIA (SEBI), In 1988, SEBI was created by an administrative feat of the Ministry of Finance. Since then, SEBI has gradually been granted more and more powers. With the repeal of the Capital, Issues Control Act and the enactment of the SEBI Act in 1992, the regulation of the primary, market has become the preserve of SEBI. Further, the Ministry of Finance has transferred, a number of powers under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act 1956 also to SEBI., Before the establishment of the SEBI, the principal legislations governing the securities, markets in India were the Capital Issues Control Act 1956 (governing the primary market), and the Securities Contract (Regulation) Act 1956 (governing the secondary market). The, regulatory powers were vested with the Controller of Capital Issues (for the primary market), and the Stock Exchange Division (for the secondary market) in the Ministry of Finance,, Government of India., Functions, 1. The SEBI Act armed SEBI with statutory powers., 2. It has entrusted SEBI with the responsibility of dealing with various matters, relating to the capital market., SEBI’s principle tasks are to:, 1. regulate the business in stock exchanges and any other securities market., 2. register and regulate the working of capital market intermediaries (brokers,, merchant bankers, portfolio mangers and so on).
Page 269 :
Financial System, , 3., 4., 5., 6., 7., 8., 9., , 253, , register and regulate the working of mutual funds., promote and regulate self-regulatory organizations., prohibit fraudulent and unfair trade practices in securities markets., promote investors’ education and training of intermediaries of securities markets., prohibit insider trading in securities., regulate substantial acquisition of shares and take-over of companies., perform such other functions as may be prescribed., , Trading Procedure at Stock Exchanges, Securities can be traded at a stock exchange only if it is listed at that stock exchange or any, of the other stock exchanges. Listing is a procedure by which, the issuing company has to, enter into an agreement, called the listing agreement, with a stock exchange and has to abide, by the clauses of the listing agreement regarding disclosure of information, payment of listing, fees redressal of investor’s grievance etc., Once listed, the security can be traded at other stock exchanges too. The sale and purchase, (transaction) of securities at the stock exchange can be done only through registered share, brokers. An investor desiring to enter into a transaction has to place an order with one of the, share brokers. In the ‘outcry’ system where the brokers used to shout, the deals are confirmed, in few hours but in the screen-based system, the deals are confirmed immediately. The investor, then gives the delivery of the securities in case of sale, or makes the payment in case of, purchase of security, to the stock broker., The stock broker in turn makes the payment for the securities sold or delivers the security, certificate purchased on the completion of settlement programme of the stock exchange., Generally, it takes 15 to 20 days for completion of the transaction. The National Stock Exchange, and the Over The Counter Exchange of India (OTCEI) have been operating since their, inception at the national level through satellite-linked computer based system. To be in tune, with the NSE, the stock exchanges at Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedebad, and Calcutta, have already, converted their operations from the ‘outcry’ system to the computerised one. The transactions, at these stock exchanges now take place through computer based online screen system., Recent Trends in Capital Market, In recent years, Non-Banking Finance companies, variously called as “finance companies, or corporations”. Finance companies have mushroomed all over the country and have, been making rapid progress. These finance companies or corporations, with very little, capital of their own–less than Rs. 1 lakh have been raising deposits from the public by, offering attractive rates of interest and other incentives., They advance loans to wholesale and retail traders, small-scale industries and selfemployed persons. Bulk of their loans is given to parties which do not either approach, commercial banks or are denied credit facilities by the latter. The finance companies give, loans which are generally unsecured and the rate of interest charged by the then generally, range between 24 to 36 percent per annum.

Financial Management, , 254, , The number of official stock exchanges (SEs) in India has increased from nine in 1979–80, to 23 as at the end of March 2003. In fact, the number of SEs has remained to be 23 during, 1993-94 to 2000-03. India has not the largest number of organized and recognized SEs in, the world. All of them are regulated by the SEBI. They are organized either as voluntary,, non-profit-making associations (viz., Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Indore), or public limited, companies (viz., Calcutta, Delhi, Bangalore), or company limited by guarantee (viz., Chennai,, Hyderabad)., The BSE is the premier or apex stock exchange in India. It is the biggest in size in terms, of the amount of fresh capital raised, secondary market turnover and captialisation and the, total listed companies and their paid-up capital. It is also the oldest market and has been, recognized permanently, while the recognition for other exchanges is renewed every five, years. Its business is no longer confined to Mumbai alone; at the end of 1997, there were, 100 other cities in which it had set up business., The NSEI has a fully automated, electronic, screen-based trading system. It is sponsored, by the IDBI and co-sponsored by other term-lending institutions, LIC, GIC, other insurance, companies, commercial banks, and other financial institutions; viz., SBI Caps, SHCIL, and, ILFs. Its objectives are : (a) to provide nation-wide equal access and fair, efficient, completely, transparent securities trading system to investors by using suitable communication network,, (b) to provide shorter settlement cycles and book entry settlement system, (c) to bring the, Indian stock market in line with international markets, (d) to promote the secondary market, in debt instruments such as government and corporate bonds., It was set up in 1992 and was the first stock exchange in India to introduce screen-based, automated ring less trading system.

Money market again subdivided into, the following categories on the basis of the instruments used in the money market.
Page 274 :
Financial Management, , 258, , A well-organised money market is the basis for an effective monetary policy. A money, market may be defined as the market for lending and borrowing of short-term funds. It is the, place where the short-term surplus investable funds at the disposal of banks and other financial, institutions are bid by borrowers comprising companies, individuals and the government., The Reserve Bank occupies a pivotal position in the Indian money market as it controls, the flow of currency and credit into the market. The Indian money market is classified into, the following ways:, Indian money market consists of two parts: The unorganised and the organised sectors., The unorganised sector consists of indigenous bankers who pursue the banking business on, traditional lines. The organised sector comprises the Reserve Bank, the State Bank of India, and its associate banks, the 19 nationalised banks and other private sector banks, both Indian, and foreign., The organised money market in India has a number of sub-markets such as the Treasury, Bills Market: the Commercial Bills Market and the Inter-Bank Call Money Market., On the recommendations of the Sukhmoy Chakravarty Committee on the Review of the, working of the Monetary System, the RBI has initiated a series of money market reforms., The Narasimhan Committee report on the Working of the Financial System in India,, (1991) also made important recommendations on the Indian money market., As par of its anti-inflationary policy, the RBI has followed a strict policy of interest rate, control and regulations. Deposit rates of banks, lending rates of banks and financial institutionsin fact, all kinds of interest rates were subject to strict control and regulation by the RBI., Since 1988, the RBI has removed the ceiling stipulation (of 16.5% per annum) for all bank, advances and instead has fixed a minimum of 16% per annum., Banks have been asked to ensure that the interest rates charged remain within reasonable, limits. Subsequently, the ceiling on interest rates on inter-bank call and short notice money,, inter short-term deposits, bills rediscounting and inter-bank participation were removed from, May 1989 and the rates were permitted to be determined by market forces., Indian Money Market, , Organised Banking, Sector, , Call Money, Market, , Commercial, Bill, , Unorganised Banking, Sector, , Bill Market, , 364 Days Bill, Market, , Sub-markets, , Certificates of, Deposits (CDs), , Treasury, Bills (91 days), , Fig. 13.9 Indian Money Market, , Commercial, Papers (CPs)
Page 275 :
Financial System, , 259, , 1. Call money market: It is the market for very short-term funds repayable on, demand and with the maturity period is less than 15 days. Call money market, is mainly located in major industrial and commercial areas like Delhi, Mumbai,, Kolkatta, Chennai and Ahmedabad., 2. Treasury bill market: Treasury bills are also one of the short-term financial, instruments, which deal in money market. Treasury bill is a kind of finance bill, or promissory note issued by the government to raise short-term funds. Treasury, bills duration vary from 14 days to 364 days., Traditionally, the Indian money market had suffered from inadequacy of shortterm credit instruments. On the recommendations of the Vaghul Working Group,, the RBI has introduced many new money market instruments., Treasury bills: Instruments for short-term borrowing by the government. The, bills are promissory notes to pay to the bearer after the maturity period. The bills, are issued by tender to the Money Market and to Government Departments., Tenders are invited every week from bankers, discount houses and brokers. The, Treasury Bills provide the government with a highly flexible and relatively cheap, means of borrowing money to meet its fluctuating needs for cash., In the past there were only 91days treasury bills, which were traded in the Indian, money market. The new instruments introduced by the RBI are: 182 days treasury, bills, 364 days treasury bills, longer maturity treasury bills, dated Governments, securities, certificates of deposits and commercial paper., At one time, the demand for the treasury bills by commercial banks was solely, governed by Statutory Liquidity Ration (SLR) considerations. This is not true any, more. Besides, the secondary market transactions in them are being increasingly, driven by the felt-need for effective management of short-term liquidity by the, commercial banks., 182 days treasury bills were variable interest bills and were sold through, fortnightly auctions. The yield of these long-dated papers had become attractive, for a highly liquid instrument. These were replaced by 364 days treasury bills., 364 days treasury bills there is a considerable scope for banks and financial, institutions to be interested in long-dated bills, as they are far superior to their loan, assets and investments which cannot be easily liquidated in times of need, without, incurring heavy loses. The 364 days Treasury Bills have thus become an important, instrument of Government borrowing from the market and also leading money, market instrument in the sense that their yield is most reflective of market conditions., Financial institutions recongnise the yield rate on 364 days Treasury Bills–at, present around 12.5 to 13 percent–as anchor rate on the basis of which interest, rate instruments are floated., The fortnightly offerings of these bills bring in, annually, about Rs. 20,000 crores, to the Government. These bills are entirely held by the market and RBI does not, subscribe to them. RBI introduced two more Treasury Bills in 1997: (i) 14 days
Page 276 :
260, , Financial Management, , Intermediate Treasury Bills from April 1997 at a discount rate equivalent to, the rate of interest on ways and means advances to the Government of India–these, bills cater to the needs of State Governments, foreign central banks and other, specified bodies (these have surplus funds which can be invested for very short, periods), (ii) A new category of 14 days Treasury Bills, sold through action, for the first time in June 1997 to meet the cash management requirements of, various sections of the economy., Dated Government Securities: The Government of India has also decided to, sell dated securities (of 5 year maturity and 10 maturity) on an auction basis. The, purpose of this Government decision is:, (i) to develop dated securities as a monetary instrument with flexible yields;, (ii) to provide financial instruments to suit investors’ expectations; and, (iii) to meet Government needs directly from the market., A very interesting development is the introduction of repurchase auctions (Repos, for, short), since December 1992, in respect of Central Government dated securities. Repos are, now a regular feature of RBI’s market operations. One purpose of Repos is to even out shortterm fluctuations in liquidity of the money market., When Government securities are repurchased from the market, RBI makes payment to, commercial banks and this adds to their liquidity. Repos are developing into a useful, instrument to even out sharp fluctuations in the money market., Discount and Finance House of India Ltd. (DFHI), DFHI has been set up as a port of the package of reform of the money market. It fills the, long-standing need of a discount house in India, which will buy bills and other short-term, paper from banks and financial institutions. In this way, DFHI enables banks and financial, institutions to invest their idle funds for short periods in bills and short dated paper., Banks can sell their short-term securities to DFHI and get funds, in case they need them,, without disturbing their investments. The DFHI has been very active in the short-term, money market and has effectively contributed to the overall stability of the money market., 3. Commercial bills market: Another Sub-division of money market is commercial, bill market. A commercial bill or a bill of exchange is a short-term, negotiable,, and self liquidating money market instrument. It may be classified into clean bills,, document bills, inland bills, foreign bills, accommodation bills and supply bills etc., Commercial Paper (CP), The commercial paper (CP) is issued by companies with a net worth of Rs. 5 crores. The CP, is issued in multiples of Rs. 25 lakhs subject to a minimum issue of Rs. 1 crore. The maturity, of CP is between 3 to 6 months. The CPs are issued at a discount rate is freely determined., The maximum amount of CP that a company can raise was limited to 20% (now raised, to 30%) of the maximum permissible bank finance. The purpose of introducing CP is to
Page 277 :
Financial System, , 261, , enable high-level corporate borrowers to diversify their sources of short-term borrowings, on the one hand, and provide an additional instrument to the banks and financial institutions, in the money market, on the other., 4. Certificate of deposits(CDs): The CDs are another important instrument of, money market. They are issued by banks in multiples of Rs. 25 lakhs subject to, a minimum amount of Rs. 1 crore. The maturity is between 3 months and one, year. They are issued at a discount to the face value and the discount rate is freely, determined according to market conditions. CDs are freely transferable after 45, days from the date of issue., Money Market Mutual Funds(MMMFs), In April 1992 the Government announced the setting up of Money Market Mutual Funds, (MMMFs) with the purpose of bringing Money Market instruments within the reach of, individuals. Scheduled commercial banks and public financial institutions would set up the, MMMFs. The shares/units of MMMFs would be issued only to individuals. In this respect,, they will differ from UTI and other mutual funds which have been mobilizing the savings of, the middle classes (and also of others including companies) for investment in equities in, the capital market., Mutual funds have emerged as an important segment of financial markets in India,, especially following the initiatives taken by Government in the 1999–2000. Budget to resolve, problems associated with UTIs US 64 scheme and to liberalise tax treatment of incomes, earned through mutual funds. The now plays a crucial role in channeling savings of millions, of individuals/households form different parts of the country into investment in both equity, and debt instruments., The mutual fund industry has witnessed several innovations in the current financial, year. The monetary and credit policy for 1999–2000 has permitted money market mutual, funds to offer cheque writing facility to unit holders. Some of the Mutual Funds have, introduced limited cheque writing facility by allowing its unit holders to issue cheques against, a savings account with a designated bank., The Mid-term Review of Monetary and Credit Policy announced the decision to permit, scheduled commercial banks to offer “cheque writing” facility to Gilt Funds and those Liquid, income Schemes of Mutual Funds which predominantly (not less than 80 percent of the, corpus) invest in money market instruments. Another significant development related to, the emergence of sector funds targeting sectors such as information technology,, pharmaceuticals, fast moving consumer goods, etc. Equally important was the emergence of, Dedicated Gilt Fund envisaging 100 percent investment in Government securities, which, has made the Gilt Market accessible to small investors. In order to promote dematerialization,, the mutual fund industry introduced an innovative product facilitating investment solely in, dematerialized securities and exchange of any security in dematerialised segment for the, units of the scheme.

Financial Management, , 262, , Venture Capital Funds (VCFs), The Union Budget for 1999–2000 stressed the need for higher investment in venture, capital activity (investment in economic activities where risk is high and there is considerable, innovation involved e.g. in the knowledge based enterprises). As it is difficult to access, capital market to raise funds for technology development/demonstration, especially for small, and medium industries, VCF has a major role to play in this area., The National Venture Fund for Software and IT industry (NVFSIT) launched in the, current financial year merits mention in this context. The Small Industry Development, Bank of India (SIDBI) Venture Capital Ltd. (SVCL) manages NVFSIT, which is a wholly, owned subsidiary of SIDBI. In the backdrop of these developments, SEBI initiated a process, of interaction with industry participants and experts to identify the various issues and key, areas for the development of the VCF industry in India., Financial Services, Financial Services are the another and unavoidable component of the financial system of, the country. Normally financial services are provided by the non-banking financial companies, and later it is called as non-banking financial service companies. Financial services are, divided into two major categories such as:, Financial Services, , Fund Based, , Mutual, Fund, , Venture, Capital, , Fee Base, , Leasing, Finance, , Hire, Purchase, , Merchant, Banking, , Credit, Rating, , Project, Counselling, , Fig. 13.10 Financial Services, , Fund Based Financial Services, Fund based financial services such as leasing, venture capital, hire purchasing, insurance, and mutual funds etc. Because, these services are related to the funds transfer from one, place to another place and one person to another person., Fee Based Financial Services, Fee based financial services such as merchant banking, underwriting, project counseling,, credit rating etc., because, these services such as merchant banking, underwriting, project, counseling, credit rating etc., because, these services are not related to any funds transfer, activities.
