CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCATION
CONCEPTUAL BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
expected output. This input is termed as capital/financial capital. The source of financial
capital can be of two types- owned capital and borrowed capital. Owned capital is raised from
owners (promoters/shareholders) also known as owner’s equity and borrowed capital is raised from
lenders or investors known as debt fund or outsider’s equity. The capital can be of various types on
the basis of time such as long-term capital, medium term capital & short-term capital. Long term
capital is basically obtained by issuing share capital, debenture capital, venture capital mortgage,
retained earnings etc. The term loan, leasing, Bank overdraft, trade credit, factoring etc. are the
sources of medium- and short-term capital. All these mixes of sources of funds are known as
financial structure. The portion of finance structure consisting of long-term capital can be said as
capital structure. The capital structure is the combination of equity capital and debt capital. The
proportion of debt and equity in capital structure varies from firm to firm and time to time. A firm
can adopt a capital mix of either 100% equity and zero debt or 100% debt with zero equity or any
combination of both. Equity financing is less risky in the sense of cash flow commitments, but results
in a dilution of ownership and earnings whereas debt capital creates an obligation or liability with
low-cost and high risk. It is a very important component of corporate finance. Long before 50 years
financial management has not got that much importance and deals with only procurement of funds
but at present it has taken the basics of any business including procurement, utilization and control of
finance. So, it directly affects the performance of business organization. That’s why finance manager
should take a decision of optimal capital mix which will increase the financial Performance.
Business uncertainties. However, a company can earn maximum profits even in the long-term, if:
Dividend Decision:
In order to achieve the wealth maximization objective, an appropriate dividend policy must
be developed. One aspect of dividend policy is to decide whether to distribute all the profits in the
form of dividends or to distribute a part of the profits and retain the balance. While deciding the
optimum dividend pay-out ratio (proportion of net profits to be paid out to shareholders). The
finance manager should consider the investment opportunities available to the firm, plans for
expansion and growth, etc. Decisions must also be made with respect to dividend stability, form of
dividends, i.e., cash dividends or stock dividends, etc.
of its financial position before it can determine what its capital structure should look like. It is not
uncommon for two companies in the same industry to have identical debt-to- equity ratios, but
significantly different cash flow capabilities because of difference in growth rate, cost structure,
profitability and asset turn over. Any analysis should therefore include a review of how operating
and financial leverage will affect a company’s ability to make loan payments. Once a company
decides to access the capital markets, it needs to be educated as to the various capital providers and to
appropriate market terms and pricing in each layer of a capital structure.
1.1.9 MEANING OF FINANCING DECISION
The financing decision involves two sources from where the funds can be raised: using a company’s
own money, such as share capital, retained earnings or borrowing funds from the outside in the form
debenture, loan, bond, etc. The objective of financial decision is to maintain an optimum capital
structure
1.2 MEANING OF CAPITAL STRUCUTRE
Capital structure is the composition of long-term liabilities, specific short-term liabilities like bank
notes, common equity, and preferred equity which makes up the funds with which a business firm
finances its operations and its growth. The capital structure of a business firm is essentially the right
side of its balance sheet.
Capital structure refers to the combination of debt and equity which a company uses to finance its
long- term operations. The capital structure is how a firm finances its overall operations and growth
byusing different sources of funds. Raising of capital from different sources and their use in different
assets by a company is make on the basis of certain principles that provide a system of capital so that
the maximum rate of return can be earned at a minimum cost. This sort of system of capital is known
as capital structure.
Market:
IT plays a vital role in terms of sources of finance. Efficient market can always provide
required quantum of funds in different combination. When the firm formulated the capital structure it
has to consider the prevailing market environment and act accordingly.
Investor’s behavior:
Capital structure of the firm is purely based on the behaviour aspect of the investor. Human
behavior changes frequently, thereby investors demand on the rate of return on investment may
change frequently. Company has to change its capital structure policy according to the behavior of
the investors.
Required rate of return:
As the investors well informed about the investment opportunities in the market is the demand
for the return-on-investment increases. The company capital structure should provide for the
variation in the rate of return.
Growth opportunities:
The mix of assets in place versus growth opportunities has four implications for capital
structure. First high assets in place make the firm have better collateral for loans. Second bankruptcy
costs and disruption caused by managers know more about their company’s prospectus than outsiders.
Fourth, financial flexibility is more important for firms with growth opportunities.
1.2.9 A COMPLEX CAPITAL STRCTURE PATTERN
Absence of close control: In case the company makes any default in paying dividend to
preference shareholder. They will earn the right to attend the general meeting and to vote on
matters affecting their interest
the financing structure includes equity and long-term external capital as well as current liabilities.
Thus, the capital structure corresponds to the structure of the liabilities less the current liabilities. The
fact that the current liabilities are excluded from the consideration is a result of the fact that their value
fluctuates; therefore, the capital structure is determined by equity and long-term liabilities in the
longer term. A different approach to the capital structure takes equity, long-term liabilities, and
interest- bearing short-term liabilities into account. This results from the assumption that the entities
that invest capital in an enterprise are oriented towards obtaining income that they can obtain from
this account.
company, which is often associated with stock prices. High stock prices could show shareholder
value. The Firm's value can be estimated with Tobin's Q, which is the replacement cost required to
obtain the same assets with the assets of the company. The purpose of this study was conducted to
examine the relationship between capital structure (DER), the company's performance (ROE) and
Firm value (Tobin's Q) of companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange.
Khemiri and Noubbigh (2018)
Khemiri and Noubbigh Indicated that capital structure is represented by the average debt–
equity ratio of companies and capital structure is the optimal combination of equity and long-term
debt according to Khémiri and Noubbigh. Basically, the division of the capital structure theory may
concern the following

Metro Cash and Carry is among the leading firms within its industry, and it needs to retain this
position. Metro Cash and Carry is carefully reviewing its SWOT analysis and using it to make strategic
decisions. For a SWOT analysis to be conducted of the firm, an interactive process needs to be
undertaken by coordinating among all the departments of the firm such as finance, marketing, operations,
human resource, logistics, strategic planning, management information systems etc.
A SWOT matrix is a 2x2 matrix that has the internal strategic factors listed in the first row; Strengths
and Weaknesses. It has the external strategic factors listed in the second row; Opportunities and Threats.

weaknesses, opportunities and threats in one matrix.

Strengths-Opportunities Strategies (SO): This involves using internal strengths to take advantage
of opportunities.
Weaknesses-Opportunities Strategies (WO): This involves improving on the company’s
weaknesses by making use of the opportunities.
Strengths-Threats Strategies (ST): This involves the using of strengths to minimize the weaknesses.
Weaknesses-Threats Strategies (WT): This involves the elimination of weaknesses to combat the
threats.
The main objective of the SWOT analysis is to help in identifying the strategies that can be used by the
company to build on its strengths, eliminate its weaknesses while making the most of opportunities and
countering threats.

few players within the industry that have had a significant advantage as a result of their
innovative products.
High Day Sales Inventory: The time it takes for products to be purchased and sold are higher than
the industry average, meaning that Metro Cash and Carry builds up on inventory adding
unnecessary costs to the business.

rented rather than purchased. It has to pay large amounts of rent on these adding to its costs.
Low current ratio: The current ratio that shows the company’s ability to meet its short term
financial obligations, is lower than the industry average. This could mean that the company could
have liquidity problems in the future.
The company has low levels of current assets compared to current liabilities, and this can create
liquidity problems for it in operations.
Cash flow problems: There is a lack of proper financial planning at Metro Cash and Carry
regarding cash flows, leading to certain circumstances where there isn’t enough cash flow as
required leading to unnecessary unplanned borrowing.
Integration: Metro Cash and Carry's current structure and culture have resulted in the failure of
various mergers aimed at vertical integration.

that is serves since the past 2 years. As a result, it is making decisions based on 2 years old data,
while customer needs may have evolved over time.

growth potential in the future. This has reduced the costs of transportation, which is beneficial for
Metro Cash and Carry as it will lower its overall costs.

use of this opportunity.

customers that it can target in order to gain market share.

amount of skilled labor available within the country. This means that if Metro Cash and Carry is
able to hire skilled labor, it would have to spend less on training and development, therefore,
saving costs.

Cash and Carry's products.
44
Increased promotions by competitors have been a threat for Metro Cash and Carry. On most
media, there is more clutter than ever, and customers are bombarded with multiple messages. This
reduces the effectiveness of promotional messages by Metro Cash and Carry.
Constant technological developments require the workforce to be trained accordingly as the
inability to keep up with these changes can lead to loss of business for Metro Cash and Carry.
Its major limitation is the fact that there can be an overlap of strengths and weakness, with a
single factor being both a strength and a weakness. For example, a large number of outlets can be
a strength in a growing economy or a weakness if the economy is going through a recession.
The matrix is not an end as it does not show how to achieve the objectives. It should be used as a
starting point to make strategic decisions.
The assessment done through a SWOT analysis is a static one and does not take into
consideration the changes that take place in the competitive environment.
The factors listed down in a SWOT analysis may be overemphasized by the company.
46
The limitation of the weighted SWOT analysis is that it does not look at how holistically different factors
affect the business when combined.
