Corporate finance provides the skills managers need to: Identify and select the corporate strategies and individual projects that add value to their firm. Forecast the funding requirements of their company, and devise strategies for acquiring those funds.

4 Business Organization from Start- up to a Major Corporation Sole proprietorship Partnership Corporation (More..)

5 Starting as a Proprietorship Advantages: Ease of formation Subject to few regulations No corporate income taxes Disadvantages: Limited life Unlimited liability Difficult to raise capital to support growth

6 Starting as or Growing into a Partnership A partnership has roughly the same advantages and disadvantages as a sole proprietorship.

7 Becoming a Corporation A corporation is a legal entity separate from its owners and managers. File papers of incorporation with state. Charter Bylaws

8 Advantages and Disadvantages of a Corporation Advantages: Unlimited life Easy transfer of ownership Limited liability Ease of raising capital Disadvantages: Double taxation Cost of set-up and report filing

9 Becoming a Public Corporation and Growing Afterwards Initial Public Offering (IPO) of Stock Raises cash Allows founders and pre-IPO investors to “harvest” some of their wealth Subsequent issues of debt and equity

10 Agency Problems and Corporate Governance Agency problem: managers may act in their own interests and not on behalf of owners (stockholders) Corporate governance is the set of rules that control a company’s behavior towards its directors, managers, employees, shareholders, creditors, customers, competitors, and community. Corporate governance can help control agency problems.

11 What should be management’s primary objective? The primary objective should be shareholder wealth maximization, which translates to maximizing the fundamental stock price. Should firms behave ethically? YES! Do firms have any responsibilities to society at large? YES! Shareholders are also members of society.

12 Is maximizing stock price good for society, employees, and customers? Employment growth is higher in firms that try to maximize stock price. On average, employment goes up in: firms that make managers into owners (such as LBO firms) firms that were owned by the government but that have been sold to private investors (Continued)

13 Is maximizing stock price good? (Continued) Consumer welfare is higher in capitalist free market economies than in communist or socialist economies. Fortune lists the most admired firms. In addition to high stock returns, these firms have: high quality from customers’ view employees who like working there

14 What three aspects of cash flows affect an investment’s value? Amount of expected cash flows (bigger is better) Timing of the cash flow stream (sooner is better) Risk of the cash flows (less risk is better)

15 Free Cash Flows (FCF) Free cash flows are the cash flows that are available (or free) for distribution to all investors (stockholders and creditors). FCF = sales revenues - operating costs - operating taxes - required investments in operating capital.

16 Cost of Money What do we call the price, or cost, of debt capital? The interest rate What do we call the price, or cost, of equity capital? Cost of equity = Required return = dividend yield + capital gain

17 Financial Securities DebtEquityDerivatives Money Market T-Bills CD’s Eurodollars Fed Funds Options Futures Forward contract Capital Market T-Bonds Agency bonds Municipals Corporate bonds Common stock Preferred stock LEAPS Swaps

18 What are some types of markets? A market is a method of exchanging one asset (usually cash) for another asset. Physical assets vs. financial assets Spot versus future markets Money versus capital markets Primary versus secondary markets

19 Primary vs. Secondary Security Sales Primary New issue (IPO or seasoned) Key factor: issuer receives the proceeds from the sale. Secondary Existing owner sells to another party. Issuing firm doesn’t receive proceeds and is not directly involved.
