All rights reserved. 1-5 Major Areas & Opportunities in Finance: Managerial Finance Managerial finance is concerned with the duties of the financial manager in any organization. The financial manager actively manages the financial affairs of any organization, whether private or public, large or small, profit-seeking or not-for-profit. They are also more involved in developing corporate strategy and improving the firm’s competitive position.

In small companies, the finance function may be performed by the company president or accounting department. As the business expands, finance typically evolves into a separate department linked to the president as was previously described in Figure 1.1.

In fact, finance is sometimes referred to as financial economics. Financial managers must understand the economic framework within which they operate in order to react or anticipate to changes in conditions.

The primary economic principal used by financial managers is marginal cost-benefit analysis which says that financial decisions should be implemented only when _____________________________________ _____________________________________.

All rights reserved The Managerial Finance Function: Relationship to Accounting The firm’s finance (treasurer) and accounting (controller) functions are closely-related and overlapping. In smaller firms, the financial manager generally performs both functions.

One major difference in perspective and emphasis between finance and accounting is that accountants generally use the accrual method while in finance, the focus is on ____________________________________.

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved The Managerial Finance Function: Relationship to Accounting (cont.) Finance and accounting also differ with respect to decision-making. While accounting is primarily concerned with the presentation of financial data, the financial manager is primarily concerned with analyzing and interpreting this information for decision-making purposes. The financial manager uses this data as a vital tool for making decisions about the financial aspects of the firm.

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved The Agency Issue: The Agency Problem Whenever a manager owns less than 100% of the firm’s equity, a potential agency problem exists. In theory, managers would agree with shareholder wealth maximization. However, managers are also concerned with their personal wealth, job security, fringe benefits, and lifestyle. This would cause managers to act in ways that do not always benefit the firm shareholders.

All rights reserved The Agency Issue: Resolving the Problem Market Forces such as major shareholders and the threat of a hostile takeover act to keep managers in check. Agency Costs are the costs borne by stockholders to maintain a corporate governance structure that minimizes agency problems and contributes to the maximization of shareholder wealth.

A stock option is an incentive allowing managers to purchase stock at the market price set at the time of the grant. Performance plans tie management compensation to measures such as EPS growth; performance shares and/or cash bonuses are used as compensation under these plans.
