2. Read and translate the text.
To carry on business, corporations need an almost endless variety of real assets. Many of these assets are tangible, such as machinery, factories, and offices; others are intangible, such as technical expertise, trademarks, and patents. All of them need to be paid for. To obtain the necessary money, the corporation sells claims on its real assets and on the cash those assets will generate. These claims are called financial assets or securities. For example, if the company borrows money from the bank, the bank gets a written promise that the money will be repaid with interest. Thus the bank trades cash for a financial asset. Financial assets include not only bank loans but also shares of stock, bonds, and a dizzying variety of specialized securities.
The financial manager stands between the firm’s operations and the financial (or capital) markets, where investors hold the financial assets issued by the firm. The financial manager’s role is illustrated in Figure 1, which traces the flow of cash from investors to the firm and back to investors again. The flow starts when the firm sells securities to raise cash (arrow 1 in the figure). The cash is used to purchase real assets used in the firm’s operations (arrow 2). Later, if the firm does well, the real assets generate cash inflows which more than repay the initial investment (arrow 3). Finally, the cash is either reinvested (arrow 4a) or returned to the investors who purchased the original security issue (arrow 4b). Of course, the choice between arrows 4a and 4b is not completely free. For example, if a bank lends money at stage 1, the bank has to be repaid the money plus interest at stage 4b.
Flow of cash between financial markets and the firm’s operations. Key: (1) Cash raised by selling financial assets to investors; (2) cash invested in the firm’s operations and used to purchase real assets; (3) cash generated by the firm’s operations; (4a) cash reinvested; (4b) cash returned to investors. |

Our diagram takes us back to the financial manager’s two basic questions. First, what real assets should the firm invest in? Second, how should the cash for the investment be raised? The answer to the first question is the firm’s investment, or capital budgeting, decision. The answer to the second is the firm’s financing decision.
