13
The Goals of Business Finance To make use of shareholders’ money to make more money for them Primary objective is to maximize the long- term wealth of the shareholders by increasing the share price of the company An increase in share price is achieved by earning an attractive return subject to an acceptable level of risk
14
The Agency Problem Management (agents for the shareholders in managing the business) may be more interested in their short-term compensation, power, autonomy, etc To align the interest of the management with the shareholders, corporation may tie executive salary to stock price of the company and/or issue stock options as bonuses.

16
How to raise money for a company? For long-term purpose (> 1 year), we may issue corporate bonds, common stock and preferred stock – classes 2 & 3 For short-term purpose (< 1 year), we can raise money by managing working capital and current asset – classes 9 & 11 Either way, we need to know the cost of capital – class 4
17
How to invest the capital? Primary objective is to get an investment return greater than the cost of capital The greater the return, the higher the risk of the investment Final decision or choice is a tradeoff between risk and return Investment opportunities and selection require an understanding of capital market and capital budgeting – classes 5, 6 & 8
18
International sources of capital and inv. Opp. Due to the globalization of our economy, we have new sources of capital coming from outside of the country Also we are able to diversify our investments to foreign countries As a result, we have to learn something about the international financial management – class 12
19
Are you ready to go? Not yet. You have to pick up some skills or tools that would help you through First equip with the fundamental theory of finance – Time Value of Money Then pick up basic valuation technique – discount cash flow – classes 2 & 3
20
Who wants to be a Millionaire? According to Forbes magazine in 2003, who is the second richest man in the world? A) Paul Allen B) Bill Gates C) Lawrence Ellison D) Warren Buffett
21

22
Poverty Gap is Widening Even though you know how to make money, you are not a successful person. It’s until you know how to share with people the money you made, you will be a true successful person with a meaningful life. "Only a life lived for others is a life worth while." Albert Einstein
23
Question 3 Amanda was not a very smart girl but she managed to graduate from the university at age 20. Then she worked for an accounting firm and began to save $5,000 a year in a RSP for the next 10 years. After that, she got married and stopped contributing to the plan again.
24
Question 3 cont’ James was a smart boy at the same age as Amanda. He studied medicine in university and became a doctor at age 25. Then he spent 10 years in paying back his student loan. It was until age 35, he began to invest in a RSP. He kept saving $5000 a year until he retired at age 55.
25
Question 3 cont’ Assume both have invested in the same saving plan, who will have more money in the RSP when they retire at age 55? A) Amanda B) James C) Both are the same D) Cannot be determined
26
Why can the money grow? Money can grow because interest can be earned on the money saved It may grow by simple or compound interest arrangement Simple interest – interest can be made on the principal only Compound interest – interest can also be made on the interest generated by the principal
27
How does the money grow? Assume you invest $1000 (one-time and one lump sum) at Year 0 in a saving plan that has an annual compound interest rate of 10%. At Year 1, how much money do you have in your plan? $1000 (1+10%) = 1100 If you keep the money growing, how much do you have at Year 2?
28
How does the money grow? $1100 (1+10%) = 1210 Since $1100 = 1000(1+10%) We can express Year 2 figure as: $1000(1+10%)(1+10%) = 1210 If you keep it on, how much do you have at Year 3? $1210 (1+10%) = 1331
29
How does the money grow? Since $1210 = $1100 (1+10%), we can express the Year 3 calculation as: $1100 (1+10%)(1+10%) = 1331 Since $1100 = 1000 (1+10%) in the previous slide, we can express the Year 3 figure further as: 1000 (1+10%)(1+10%)(1+10%)=1331
30
How does the money grow? Year 0 = $1000 Year 1 = $1000(1+10%) Year 2 = $1000(1+10%)(1+10%) Year 3 = $1000(1+10%)(1+10%)(1+10%)
31
Scientific Expression I Year 0 = $1000 (1+10%)^0 Year 1 = $1000 (1+10%)^1 Year 2 = $1000 (1+10%)^2 Year 3 = $1000 (1+10%)^3 …………………………. Year n = $1000 (1+10%)^n
32
Scientific Expression II If we call Year 0 figure as Present Value (PV), Year n figure as Future Value (FV) and interest rate as(i), then FV = PV ( 1+i )^n Put in table form FV = PV*FVIF
33
How does an annuity grow? Instead of investing $1000 at Year 0 and let the money grow, annuity means that we are going to invest $1000 at the end of each year for three years (a series of equal payments for a number of years) Unlike the previous example, we invest our first $1000 at Year 1 (not Year 0) and let it grow for 2 periods
34
How does an annuity grow? We then invest another $1000 at Year 2 and let it grow for 1 period Finally, we invest the last $1000 at Year 3 Without letting our final deposit grow, we calculate the total amount we have at Year 3
35
How does an annuity grow? Year 1 deposit turns into: $1000 (1+10%)^2 =1210 Year 2 deposit turns into: $1000 (1+10%)^1 = 1100 Year 3 deposit turns into: $1000 x 1 = 1000 Total 3310
36
How does an annuity grow? Year 3 total amount: $1000{(1+10%)^2+(1+10%)^1+1} Put it in formula form FVa = $1000{(1+10%)^2+(1+10%)^1+1} (1+10%)FVa = $1000{(1+10%)^3+(1+10%)^2+(1+10%)} (1+10%)FVa – FVa = $1000{(1+10%)^3 –1} FVa = $1000{(1+10%)^3 –1}/10%
37
How does an annuity grow? FVa for 3 years = $1000{(1+10%)^3 – 1}/10% = 3310 General formula FV a=A{(1+i )^n – 1}/ i FV a = Future value of an annuity (A)
38
How does an annuity grow? Put it in a table form FV a = A x FVIFA FVIFA = FV interest factor of annuity
39
How does an annuity in advance grow? If we want to invest money at the beginning of each period, the future value of an annuity in advance will simply be: FV a= (1+i ) x A{(1+i )^n – 1}/ i FV a = (1+ i ) x A x FVIFA
40
Answer for Question 3 Assume Amanda invest $5000 at the end of each year for 10 years At the end of the 10 years (age 30), the amount she has: FV a = $5000{(1+10%)^10 – 1}/ 10% = $79687 This amount will grow for another 25 years FV = $79687 (1+10%)^25 = $863385
41
Answer for Question 3 At age 35, James started to invest $5000 at the end of each year for 20 years. At age 55, he will have: FV a = $5000{(1+10%)^20 – 1}/ 10% = $286375
42
How to become a millionaire FV a = $5000{(1+10%)^n – 1}/ 10% = $1000000 Solve the above equation n = 31.94 say 32 years That is, you start to save $5000 a year. 32 years later, you will be a millionaire

50-Year Rate of Return Canada T-bills 4.8% Gov. bonds 5.8% Corp. bonds 7.2% Common stock 11.4% United States T-bills 3.8% Gov. bonds 6.2% Corp. bonds 6.2% Common stock 12.4% S&P 500 13.6%
44
What have you learnt? How to calculate the future value of a lump sum investment or saving How to calculate the future value of a series of equal payments at uniform intervals for a number of periods How to become a millionaire To share with people with what you have
