2。
财务管理的目标:最大化现有股票的每股现值。
3。
公司理财可以看做对一下几个问题进行研究:1。
资本预算:公司应该投资什么样的长期资产。
2. 资本结构:公司如何筹集所需要的资金。
3. 净运营资本管理:如何管理短期经营活动产生的现金流。
4. 公司制度的优点:有限责任,易于转让所有权,永续经营。

第二章会计报表与现金流量资产= 负债+ 所有者权益(非现金项目有折旧、递延税款)EBIT(经营性净利润)= 净销售额—产品成本—折旧EBITDA = EBIT + 折旧及摊销现金流量总额CF(A) = 经营性现金流量—资本性支出—净运营资本增加额= CF(B)+ CF(S)经营性现金流量OCF = 息税前利润+ 折旧- 税资本性输出= 固定资产增加额+ 折旧净运营资本= 流动资产- 流动负债第三章财务报表分析与财务模型1. 短期偿债能力指标(流动性指标)流动比率= 流动资产/流动负债(一般情况大于一)速动比率= (流动资产—存货)/流动负债(酸性实验比率)现金比率= 现金/流动负债流动性比率是短期债权人关心的,越高越好;但对公司而言,高流动性比率意味着流动性好,或者现金等短期资产运用效率低下。
对于一家拥有强大借款能力的公司,看似较低的流动性比率可能并非坏的信号2。
长期偿债能力指标(财务杠杆指标)负债比率= (总资产—总权益)/总资产or (长期负债+ 流动负债)/总资产权益乘数= 总资产/总权益= 1 + 负债权益比利息倍数= EBIT/利息现金对利息的保障倍数(Cash coverage radio)= EBITDA/利息3。

公司金融课后习题罗斯

第一章Corporate finance(公司财务)是金融学的分支学科,用于考察公司如何有效地利用各种融资渠道,获得最低成本的资金来源,并形成合适的资本结构(capital structure);还包括企业投资、利润分配、运营资金管理及财务分析等方面。
它会涉及到现代公司制度中的一些诸如委托-代理结构的金融安排等深层次的问题。
为什么说公司理财研究的就是如下三个问题:(1) 公司应该投资于什么样的长期资产?涉及资产负债表的左边。
我们使用“资本预算(capital budgeting)”和“资本性支出”这些专业术语描述这些长期固定资产的投资和管理过程。
(2) 公司如何筹集资本性支出所需的资金呢?涉及资产负债表的右边。
回答这一问题又涉及到资本结构(Capital structure),它表示公司短期及长期负债与股东权益的比例。
(3) 公司应该如何管理它在经营中的现金流量?涉及资产负债表的上方。
首先,经营中的现金流入量和现金流出量在时间上不对等。
此外,经营中现金流量的数额和时间都具有不确定性,难于确切掌握。
财务经理必须致力于管理现金流量的缺口。
从资产负债表的角度看,现金流量的短期管理与净营运资本(net working capital)有关。
净营运资本定义为短期资本与短期负债之差。
从财务管理的角度看,短期现金流量问题是由于现金流量和现金流量之间不对等所引起的,属于短期理财问题。
资本结构公司可以事先发行比股权多的债权,筹集所需的资金;可以考虑改变二者的比例,买回它的一些债权。
融资决策在原先投资决策前就可以独立设定。
这些发行债权和股权的决策影响到公司的资本结构。
资金主管负责处理现金流量、投资预算和制定财务计划。
财务主管负责会计工作职能,包括税收、成本核算、财务会计和信息系统。
现金流量的时点公司投资的价值取决于现金流量的时点。
一个最重要的假设是任何人都偏好早一点收到现金流量。
今天收到的一美元比明天收到的一美元更有价值。

FINS5514 corporate finance 考点知识总结

1. Agency TheoryJensen & Meckling (1976) state that the firm is a nexus of contracts• All stakeholders of the firm are concerned only with self-interest• This creates conflicts of interest between:– Shareholders and managers– Shareholders and debtholders• Managers prefer to:• Increase their job security• Increase their own power and status• Consume excessive perquisites• They may do this at the expense of SWM• Sharehol ders know this, and therefore attempt to protect against it by:• Linking managerial salaries to firm performance• Limit the free cash flows under managerial discretion•Monitor managers through, for example, audits or tighter shareholder concentration• All of the activities of shareholders to decrease agency conflicts occur at a cost, called, agency costs.• Changes in policy• Opportunity costs if managers unable to invest in positive NPV projects• Monitoring costs2. Investment Criteria• Net Present Value• The Payback Rule• The Discounted Payback• The Average Accounting Return• The Internal Rate of Return• The Profitability Index• The Practice of Capital BudgetingWe need to ask the following questions:• Does the decision rule ad just for the time value of money?• Does the decision rule adjust for risk?• Does the decision rule provide information on whether we are creating value for the firm?3. What-if Analysis• Scenario Analysis: determination of what happens to NPV when we ask what-if analysis. Best, base, worst case.• Sensitivity Analysis: investigation of what happens to NPV when only one variable is changed.• Simulation Analysis: a combination of scenario and sensitivity analysis.4. DGM, CAPM and WACC5. Types of Underwriting• Firm Commitment Underwriting▪Issuer sells entire issue to underwriting syndicate▪The syndicate then resells the issue to the public▪The underwriter makes money on the spread between the price paid to the issuer and the price received from investors when the stock is sold▪The syndicate bears the risk of not being able to sell the entire issue for more than the cost▪Most common type of underwriting in the United States• Best Efforts Underwriting▪Underwriter must make their “best effort” to sell the securities at an agreed-upon offering price ▪The company bears the risk of the issue not being sold▪The offer may be pulled if there is not enough interest at the offer price and the company does not get the capital and they have still incurred substantial flotation costs▪Not as common as it used to be• Dutch Auction Underwriting▪Underwriter accepts a series of bids that include number of shares and price per share▪The price that everyone pays is the highest price that will result in all shares being sold▪There is an incentive to bid high to make sure you get in on the auction but knowing that you willprobably pay a lower price than you bid▪The Treasury has used Dutch auctions for years▪Google was the first large Dutch auction IPO6. M&M Theory, Pecking-Order Theory, Static Trade-off theoryPecking-Order Theory:• Many, if not most, large profitable firms such as Google and Microsoft use very little, if any, debtThe higher the market valuation, generally the less the debt• Raising capital is expensiveSuccessful firms do not have to resort to external sources of finance-use internally generated cash • If stock is overvalued, management will prefer to issue new equity• Anticipating this, prospective new shareholders will downgrade the stock and price will fall• Pecking order: retained earnings first; external debt second; external equity, last resort• Implications:No target capital structureProfitable companies use less debtCompanies try to create financial slackStatic Trade-off theory:It is the theory that a firm borrows up to the point where the tax benefit from an extra dollar in debt is exactly equal to the cost that comes from the increased probability of financial distress. We call this the static theory because it assumes that the firm is fixed in terms of its assets and operations and it considers only possible changes in the debt-equity ratio.7. The saying is “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush”, that is, a cash dividend in the hand is worth more than the promise of higher dividends in the future if the firm uses excessive retained cash to make negative NPV investments (i.e., essentially to “steal” shareholder income). U nder M&M this is assumed not to happen, but it does in reality. If the retained cash yields the firm’s cost of capital then the “two in the bush” pays-off and M&M goes through.8. The “clientele effect” refers to the tendency under the “classical” tax system in use in the US for investors subject to high personal tax on dividends to prefer to hold companies that retain the majority of their income and generate more lightly taxed realized capital gains when the stock is sold. Investors in a moretax-advantageous position would prefer to hold more relatively high dividend paying stock. If an individual company switches its dividend policy from high to low, it may reallocate itself from one clientele to another but not have a significant effect on the overall supply of dividends to that clientele. In which case, its change in policy will have no effect on its valuation.9. “Dividend signaling” refers to the idea that it will be costly to management (and sh areholders) if a company announces a high payout (dividend) policy and then in future has to reverse this policy because the firm cannot generate enough cash. If this is true, the firm may be able to credibly signal improved earnings prospects by raising its dividend. Dividend signaling may not be very credible because if the firm discovers it has far more positive NPV projects than expected, it may need to limit its dividends in order to finance its now better prospects.10.

The Annual Meeting as a disciplinary venue
The power of stockholders to act at annual meetings is diluted by three factors
• Most small stockholders do not go to meetings because the cost of going to the meeting exceeds the value of their holdings.
Directors often hold only token stakes in their companies. The Korn/Ferry survey found that 5% of all directors in 1992 owned less than five shares in their firms. Most directors in companies today still receive more compensation as directors than they gain from their stockholdings. While share ownership is up among directors today, they usually get these shares from the firm (rather than buy them).
2
The Classical Viewpoint
Van Horne: "In this book, we assume that the objective of the firm is to maximize its value to its stockholders" Brealey & Myers: "Success is usually judged by value: Shareholders are made better off by any decision which increases the value of their stake in the firm... The secret of success in financial management is to increase value." Copeland & Weston: The most important theme is that the objective of the firm is to maximize the wealth of its stockholders." Brigham and Gapenski: Throughout this book we operate on the assumption that the management's primary goal is stockholder wealth maximization which translates into maximizing the price of the common stock.
Many directors are themselves CEOs of other firms. Worse still, here are cases where CEOs sit on each other’s boards.

Why traditional corporate financial theory focuses on maximizing stockholder wealth.
Stock price is easily observable and constantly updated (unlike other measures of performance, which may not be as easily observable, and certainly not updated as frequently). If investors are rational (are they?), stock prices reflect the wisdom of decisions, short term and long term, instantaneously. The objective of stock price performance provides some very elegant theory on:
• For large stockholders, the path of least resistance, when confronted by managers that they do not like, is to vote with their feet.

I. Stockholder Interests vs. Management Interests
In theory: The stockholders have significant control over management. The mechanisms for disciplining management are the annual meeting and the board of directors. In Practice: Neither mechanism is as effective in disciplining management as theory posits.
• Are a majority of the directors outside directors? • Is the chairman of the board independent of the company (and not the CEO of the
company)? • Are the compensation and audit committees composed entirely of outsiders?
A 1992 survey by Korn/Ferry revealed that 74% of companies relied on recommendations from the CEO to come up with new directors; Only 16% used an outside search firm. While that number has changed in recent years, CEOs still determine who sits on their boards. While more companies have outsiders involved in picking directors now, CEOs still exercise significant influence over the process.

What can go wrong?
STOCKHOLDERS
Have little control over managers
Managers put their interests above stockholders
In most boards, the CEO continues to be the chair. Not surprisingly, the CEO sets the agenda, chairs the meeting and controls the information provided to directors. The search for consensus overwhelms any attempts at confrontation.
The Objective in Corporate Finance
“If you don’t know where you are going, it does not matter how you get there”
