It involves finance: the activity of acquiring, spending, and managing money and other financial assets. 68 Keep in Mind Financial management is the effective and efficient management of assets, liabilities, and equity to achieve the company’s primary goal: the maximization of shareholders’ wealth. To do this, financial managers consider the long-term results, the risks or uncertainty, the timing of returns, and the stockholders’ return. 69 Keep in Mind Financial managers also make decisions based on the information they obtain from the financial system. The financial system is a mix of institutions and mechanisms that expedite the flow of funds from saving to investments. 70 Keep in Mind The four important roles of a financial manager are financing, investing, operating, and dividend policy. 71 Practice Your Skills Briefly answer the following questions in NOT MORE THAN five (5) sentences. 1. You are the financial manager of Company JKL, which posted a consistent increase in profits for the whole year. However, the business environment is still full of uncertainties because of the pandemic. You are tasked to propose how much the shareholders should receive and how much should be retained for future contingencies. As a financial manager, what factors should you consider in determining Company JKL’s dividend policy? 94 Practice Your Skills Financial managers should consider the following in making dividend policy of a company: earnings, stability of dividends, growth prospects, cash flow positions, and preference of shareholders. In this particular case, the pandemic could affect almost all these factors, especially the company’s growth prospects. 95 Practice Your Skills Briefly answer the following questions in NOT MORE THAN five (5) sentences. 2. A small and mid-size enterprise (SMEs) conference was organized to educate them on the importance of setting up their business goals. You were invited to speak in one of the sessions and encourage them to increase their business value rather than just going for higher profits. How would you explain to them the difference between wealth maximization and profit maximization? 96 Practice Your Skills Wealth maximization is the company’s long-term objective to increase the value of the company’s stock, while profit maximization is to increase the company’s capability of earning profit in the short run to sustain survival and growth. 97 Challenge Yourself Answer the following questions briefly and concisely. 1. Why is it important for start-up entrepreneurs to have a good understanding of finance? Provide a business situation and assess the impact of good financial management. 98 Challenge Yourself Sample answer. Answers may vary. Start-up entrepreneurs need to have a good understanding of finance to make sound decisions as they grow their business. For example, businesses should not simply borrow their funds from any bank or financial institution in acquiring start-up funds. They should consider first their profitability and the prospects of growth vis-à-vis the financial environment (i.e. the interest rates and monetary policies). It could be detrimental to a business’s health and survival if financial decisions do not match the situation. 99 Challenge Yourself Answer the following questions briefly and concisely. 2. Over the past years, people have increasingly used digital money for their financial transactions. How does this affect the financial system? Evaluate its effect based on how the financial system works. 100 Challenge Yourself Sample answer. Answers may vary. The financial system consists of people, businesses, and governments that interact to facilitate and expedite the flow of funds. The increased use of digital money in financial transactions could make financial transactions easier and much more accessible in a financial system. For instance, creditors and savers can easily put funds into financial markets, which could expedite the release of funds to debtors and spenders. On the other hand, digital money may pose problems in financial transactions. For example, the use of digital money is not easily traceable. As hackers know that they can be traced, they transfer the digital money in multiple transactions. Money laundering may arise as a problem here. Security is another reason: hackers have the chance to break into transactions. 101 Photo Credits Slide 3: supermarket cart on aisle, by Eduardo Soares is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slide 4: towfiqu-barbhuiya-jpqyfK7GB4w-unsplash, by Towfiqu barbhuiya is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slide 5: man looking at marketing analytics by Adeolu Eletu is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slides 19-20, 31-32: Singapore by the River by Aditya Chinchure is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slides 22-23: George Drachas The Uncomplicated Guide to Investing drachas.com, by Yiorgos Ntrahas is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slides 24-25: Business section of a newspaper, by Annie Spratt is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash Slides 27-28, 33: supermarket cart on aisle, by Carlos Muza is licensed under Unsplash License via Unsplash 102 Bibliography Bragg, Steven.
