उत्तर
Definition:
‘‘corporate finance deals primarily with the acquisition and use of capital by business corporation.’’
Meaning:
The term corporate finance also includes financial planning, study of the capital market, money market and share market. It also covers capital formation and foreign capital management.
Two decisions that are the basis of corporate finance.
- Financing Decision: The business firm has access to the capital market to fulfil its financial needs. The firm has multiple choices of sources of financing. The firm can choose whether it wants to raise equity capital or debt capital. Firms can even opt for a bank loan, public deposits, debentures, etc. to raise funds. The finance manager ensures that the firm is well capitalised, i.e. they have the right amount of capital, and that the firm has the right combination of debt and equity.
- Investment Decision: Once the business firm has gained access to capital, the finance manager has to take a decision regarding the use of the funds in a systematic manner so that it will bring a maximum return for its owners. For this, the firm has to take into consideration the cost of capital. Once they know the cost of capital, the firm can deploy or use the funds in such a way that returns are more than the cost of capital.
