Explain the goal of the financial manager and the three main types of
decisions a financial manager makes
Individuals take charge of their personal finances with decisions such as:
When to start saving and how much to save for retirement
Whether a car loan or a lease is more advantageous
Whether a particular stock is a good investment
How to evaluate the terms for a home mortgage
In your business career, you may face such questions such as:
Should your firm launch a new product?
Which supplier should your firm choose?
Should your firm produce a part or outsource production?
Should your firm issue new stock or borrow money instead?
How can you raise money for your start-up firm?
Sole proprietorship
A business owned and run by one person
(General) Partnership
It is identical to a sole proprietorship except it has more than one owner
Often firms, in which the owners’ personal reputations are the basis for the business, remain as
partnerships → law firms, accounting firms, or consulting firms, etc.
Limited partnership
A partnership with two kinds of owners, general partner and limited partner
General partner
She/he has the same rights and privileges as partners in any general partnership
She/he is personally liable for the firm’s debt obligations
Limited partner
She/he has a limited liability and her/his ownership interest is transferable
She/he has no management authority
Private company
A company consisting only of limited partners (or limited liability employees)
It is a type of firm suitable for small and medium companies rather than large
companies
LLCs were introduced for small businesses, knowledge-based industries and other
companies where ownership and management are concentrated in individuals and
where human capital is more important
It is only necessary for the executive to execute the work without the need to establish a
director or an employee general meeting
It is easy to utilize the human ability of employees because the profit distribution can be
different regardless of their investments
The stake can not be securitized and the stake can be transferred to another freely only when
that is permitted in the Articles of Incorporation
In U.S., there are private limited companies and public limited companies
Public limited companies are allowed to have their shares traded on an exchange
But most companies choose not to be listed
The owners of private limited companies are not allowed to trade their shares on an organized
exchange
Private limited companies are a relatively new phenomena in the U.S.
Corporation
A company consisting of only shareholders who are obligated to contribute to the
capital of the company and who are not responsible for the creditors (limited liability)
Features of corporations
A corporation is a legally defined, artificial being, separate from its owners
A corporation is a legal entity separate and distinct from its owners
A corporation is solely responsible for its own obligations
The owners of a corporation are not liable for any obligations the corporation enters into
The corporation is not liable for any personal obligations of its owners
No limitation on who can own its shares in most countries, not all
