Financial Management
Techniques:
1. Horizontal Analysis (trend ratios and percentages)
2. Vertical Analysis (common-size statements)
3. Ratio Analysis
4. Analysis of variation in gross profit and net income 5.
Ratio Analysis - Ratios are calculated from the financial statements to
provide users with relevant information about the firm's liquidity, use of
leverage, asset management, cost control, profitability, growth, and
valuation.
Capital Budgeting
It is the process of identifying, evaluating, planning, and financing capital
investment projects of an organization.
When evaluating projects, identify the following:
1. Net-Investment = Cost/Cash outlay less savings/cash inflows
incidental to acquiring the projects.
2. Cost of Capital – Required rate of return / WACC of financing used /
discount rate
3. Net-Returns – Either accounting net-income or net-cash inflows.
Example:
Ysabelle Corporation is planning to buy production machinery costing
P380,000. The machine's estimated useful life is five (5) years, with a
residual value of P5,000 at the end of its useful life.
Ysabelle Corporation requires a rate of return of 12% and has calculated the
following annual cash inflows, net of income tax, pertaining to the operations
of the new machine:
The cost of using funds; it is also called hurdle rate, required rate of
return, cut-off rate.
The weighted average rate of return the company must pay to its long-
term creditors and shareholders for the use of their funds.
Example:
Avie Corporation is considering a project for the coming year that will require
an investment cost of P10M. The company plans to finance the project by a
combination of debt and equity, as follows:
*Issue P2M of 10-year bonds at a price of 102, with ar interest rate of 10%,
and flotation cost of 3% of par.
*Issue 10,000 5%, preferred stock. The issuance price is P100 per share.
*Use P7M of funds generated from earnings retained in the business.
The expected market rate of return is 14%. The current rate of Treasury Bills
is 8%. The beta coefficient for Aye Corporation is 1.2. The corporate income
tax rate is 30%.
Trade-off:
1. More credit sales (benefits)
2. Cost of accounts receivable (in terms of collection, interest and bad
debts).
Example:
The variable cost ratio, even for the incremental sales, will be the same as in
the past. The cost of borrowing is estimated at 25% per year. The company
uses 360 days in a year in all its computations.
Required: Recommend whether or not May should relax its credit policy with
supporting calculations.
Example:
UrbanStyles Apparel estimates that 120,000 buttons will be needed in the
manufacture of their popular clothing line for the upcoming year. Their
supplier has quoted a price of P0.40 per button. UrbanStyles initially planned
to purchase 10,000 units per month, but the supplier cannot guarantee this
delivery schedule. To ensure a steady supply of buttons, UrbanStyles is
contemplating buying all 120,000 units on January 1. UrbanStyles can invest
their cash at an annual rate of 10%.
