FINANCING A COMPANY

1. Finance is central to the operation of any business. Finance is needed to rent or buy premises, to purchase capital equipment, to hire labor and obtain raw materials. Therefore, without finance a new business could not be set up and an existing business could not continue to function. The money needed to start and continue operating a business is known as capital. This is usually divided into working capital and fixed capital.

2. Working capital is for purchasing single-use factors or «variable factors». They are labor, raw materials, petrol, stationery, fertilizers, etc. Finance for working capital can be obtained from a variety of sources: banks, trade, credit, finance companies, factor houses, advance deposits from customers and the government.

3. Fixed capital covers factors which are used many times, such as factories, machines, land, lorries, etc. Some finance for fixed capital is therefore required initially for advance payments on factory buildings, machinery and so on before the firm is earning revenue. It is possible to convert fixed capital into working capital by renting buildings, hiring plant and vehicles or by leasing through a finance company.

4. Many companies, especially new ones, raise capital, both working and fixed, by borrowing or by selling their shares. When a company obtains capital from external sources, the financing can be either on a short-term or a long-term arrangement. In financing business operations and expansion, a business uses both short-term and long-term capital.

5. A company utilizes short-term capital to pay for salaries and office expenses that last a relatively short period of time. On the other hand, a company seeks long-term financing to pay for new assets that are expected to last many years. Generally, short-term financing must be repaid in less than one year, while long-term financing can be repaid over a longer period of time.

6. The sale of business’s goods or services generates finance which is used to purchase more materials, pay wages and so on in order to generate more production, more sales and hence more income. If the business is successful then the amount received from sales will be greater than the costs of production and therefore a profit will be made.
