1.1 Introduction to Financial Management
Financial management "is the operational activity of a business that is responsible for obtaining and effectively
utilising the funds necessary for effcient operations".
Financial management is concerned with three key activities namely:
Anticipating fnancial needs
Acquiring fnancial resources
Allocating funds in business
Traditional approach to fnancial management
Traditionally, fnancial management was considered as a branch of knowledge with focus on the procurement of
funds. Instruments of fnancing, formation, merger and restructuring of frms, legal and institutional frame work
involved therein occupied the prime place in this approach.
Modern approach to fnancial management
Modern phase has shown the commendable development with combination of ideas from economic and statistics
that led the fnancial management more analytical and quantitative. The key work area of this approach is rational
matching of funds to their uses, which leads to the maximisation of shareholders' wealth.
1.2 Goals of Financial Management
Goal of fnancial management of a frm is maximisation of economic welfare of its shareholders. Shareholders' wealth
maximisation is refected in the market value of the frms' shares. A frms' contribution to the society is maximised
when it maximises its value. Two widely accepted goals of fnancial management are:
Proft maximisation
Proft is primary motivating force for any economic activity. Firm is essentially being an economic organisation,
it has to maximise the interest of its stakeholders. To this end the frm has to earn proft from its operations. The
overall objective of business enterprise is to earn at least satisfactory return on the funds invested, consistent with
maintaining a sound fnancial position.
Wealth maximisation:
Wealth maximisation refers to maximising the net wealth of the company's share holders. Wealth maximisation is
possible only when the company pursues policies that would increase the market value of shares of the company.
1.3 Financial Decisions
The functions performed by a fnance manager are known as fnance functions. In the course of following these
functions fnance manager takes the following decisions:
Limitations of Proft Maximisation
The term proft is vague and it doesn't clarify what exactly it means. It has different interpretations
for different people.Time value of money refers a rupee receivable today is more valuable than a
rupee, which is going to be receivable in future period. The proft maximisation goal does not help in
distinguishing between the returns receivable in different periods.The concept of proft maximisation
fails to consider the fuctuation in the profts from year to year.

Fig. 1.1 Financial decisions
Investment decisions
It begins with a determination of the total amount of assets needed to be held by the frm. It relates to the selection
of assets, on which a frm will invest funds. The required assets fall into two groups namely:
Long-term assets: This involves huge investment and yield a return over a period of time in future. It is also
termed as 'capital budgeting' and can be defned as the frm's decision to invest its current funds most effciently
in fxed assets with an expected fow of benefts over a series of years.
Short-term assets: These are the current assets that can be converted into cash within a fnancial year without
diminution in value. Investment in current assets is termed as 'working capital management'.
Financing decisions
Financing decisions relate to the acquisition of funds at the least cost. The cost has two dimensions which have been
illustrated in the below mentioned table.
Explicit cost Implicit cost
It refers to the cost in the form of
coupon rate, cost of foating and
issuing the securities and so on
It refers to the cost which is not visible
but it may seriously affect the company's
operations especially when it is exposed to
business and fnancial risk
Table 1.1 Cost dimension
The challenge before the fnance manager is to arrive at a combination of debt and equity for fnancing decisions
which would attain an optimal structure of capital.
Dividend decisions
Dividend decision is a major decision made by the fnance manager on the formulation of dividend policy. Since
the goal of fnancial management is maximisation of wealth of shareholders, dividend policy formulation demands
the managerial attention on the impact of its policy on dividend on the market value of shares. Optimum dividend
policy requires decision on dividend payment rates so as to maximise the market value of shares. The payout ratio
means what portion of earnings per share is given to the shareholders in the form of cash dividend.

1.4 Interface between Finance and Other Business Functions
Financial management has relationship with almost all functional departments. But it has close relationship with
economics and accounting.
Relationship to economics
The relationship between fnance and economics is studied under two prime areas of economics. They are
macroeconomics and microeconomics:
Macroeconomics: It is the environment in which an industry operates, which is not controllable. It is important
for fnancial managers to understand changes in macroeconomics and their impact on the frm's operating
performance. External environment analysis helps in identifying opportunities and threats.
Microeconomics: It is concerned with the determination of optimum operational strategies. All fnancial decisions
of a frm are made on the basis of marginal cost, and marginal revenue. Therefore it is necessary to understand
the relationship between fnance and economics.
Relationship to accounting
Accounting and fnance are closely related. For computation of return-on-investment, earnings per share of various
ratios for fnancial analysis, the data base will be accounting information. Without proper accounting system, an
organisation cannot administer effectively function of fnancial management. The purpose of accounting is to report
the fnancial performance of the business for the period under consideration.
Relationship to HR (Human Resource)
HR activities include recruitment, training, development, fxing compensation and so on for which we need fnance.
HR managers need to consult fnance managers. Finance managers take decision after studying the impact of HR
activity on organisation.
Relationship to production
Production department is another functional area that involves huge investment on fxed assets. The production
manager and the fnance manager need to work closely for effective investment on plant and machinery.
Relationship to marketing
Marketing functions involves selection of distribution channel and promotion policies. These two are the primary
activities of marketing department and involves huge cash outfows. Therefore fnance and marketing managers
need to work with coordination to maximise value of the frm.
1.5 Financial Planning
Financial Planning is a process by which funds required for each course of action is decided. A fnancial plan has
to consider capital structure, capital expenditure and cash fow. Financial planning generates fnancial plan which
indicates:
The quantum of funds required to execute business plans
Composition of debt and equity
Formulation of polices for giving effect to the fnancial plans under consideration
Process of fnancial planning
Projection of fnancial statements
Determination of funds needed
Forecast the availability of funds
Establish and maintain systems of controls
Develop procedures
Establish performance-based compensation system

Benefts of fnancial planning
Effective utilisation of funds
Flexibility in capital structure is given adequate consideration
Formulation of policies and instituting procedures for elimination of all types of wastages in the process of
execution of strategic plans.
Maintaining the operating capability of the frm through the evolution of scientifc replacement schemes for
plant and machinery and other fxed assets.
Factors affecting fnancial plan
Nature of the industry
Size of the company
Status of the company in the industry
Sources of fnance available
The capital structure of a company
Matching the sources with utilisation
Flexibility
Government policy
1.6 Capitalisations
Capitalisation of a frm refers to the composition of its long-term funds. It refers to the capital structure of the frm.
It has two components, viz., debt and equity.
After estimating the fnancial requirements of a frm, the next decision that the management has to take is to arrive
at the value at which the company has to be capitalised. The two theories of Capitalisation are:
1.6.1 Cost Theory
According to the cost theory of capitalisation, the value of a company is arrived at by adding up the cost of fxed
assets like plants, machinery patents, the capital that regularly required for the continuous operation of the company
(working capital), the cost of establishing business and expenses of promotion. The original outlays on all these
items become the basis for calculating the capitalisation of company.
Merits of cost approach Demerits of cost approach
It helps promoters to estimate the amount
of capital required for various activities like
incorporation of company, conducting market
surveys and so on.
It the frm establishes its production facilities at
infated prices; productivity of the frm will be
less than that of the industry.
If done systematically it will lay foundation for
successful initiation of the working of the frm.
Net worth of a company is decided by the
investors by the earnings of a company. Earning
capacity based net worth helps a frm to arrive
at the total capital in terms of industry specifed
yardstick cost theory fails in this respect.
Table 1.2 Merits and demerits of cost approach
Financial Management

1.6.2 Earnings Theory
The earnings theory of capitalisation recognises the fact that the true value (capitalisation) of an enterprise depends
upon its earnings and earning capacity. According to it, the value or capitalisation of a company is equal to the
capitalised value of its estimated earnings. For this purpose a new company has to prepare an estimated proft and
loss account. For the frst few years of its life, the sales are forecast and the manager has to depend upon his/her
experience for determining the probable cost. The earnings so estimated may be compared with the actual earnings
of similar companies in the industry and the necessary adjustments should be made. Then the promoters will study
the rate at which other companies in the same industry similarly situated are earning. The rate is then applied to the
estimated earnings of the company for fnding out the capitalisation.
Merits of earnings theory Demerits of earnings theory
It is superior to cost theory because there are
the least chances of neither under nor over
capitalisation.
The major challenge that a new frm faces is in
deciding on capitalisation and its division thereof
into various procurement sources.
Comparison of earnings with that of cost
approach will make the management to be
cautious in negotiating the technology and
cost of procuring and establishing the new
business.
Arriving at capitalisation rate is equally a formidable
task because the investors' perception of established
companies cannot be really representative of what
investors perceive of the earning power of new
company.
Table 1.3 Merits and demerits of earnings theory
1.7 Over-capitalisation
A company is said to be overcapitalised, when its total capital exceeds the true value of its assets. The correct
indicator of overcapitalisation is the earnings capacity of the frm. If the earnings of the frm are less then that of
the market expectation, it will not be in position to pay dividends to its shareholders as per their expectations. It is
a sign of overcapitalisation.
Effects of over-capitalisation
Decline in the earnings of the company
Fall in dividend rates
Market value of company's share falls, and company loses investors confdence
Company may collapse at any time because of anemic fnancial conditions
Remedies for over-capitalisation
Restructuring the frm is to be executed to avoid the situation of company becoming sick. It involves the
following:
Reduction of debt burden
Negotiation with term lending institutions for reduction in interest obligation
Redemption of preference shares through a scheme of capital reduction
Reducing the face value and paid-up value of equity shares
Initiating merger with well managed proft making companies interested in taking over ailing company
7/uts
1.8 Under-capitalisation
A company is considered to be under-capitalised when its actual capitalisation is lower than its proper capitalisation
as warranted by its earning capacity.
Causes of under-capitalisation
Under estimation of future earnings at the time of promotion of the company
Abnormal increase in earnings from new economic and business environment
Under estimation of total funds requirements
Maintaining very high effciency through improved means of production of goods or rendering of services
Use of low capitalisation rate
Purchase of assets at exceptionally low prices during recession
Effects of under-capitalisation
Encouragement to competition
It encourages the management of the company to manipulate the company's share prices
Higher profts will attract higher amount of taxes
Higher profts will make the workers demanding higher wages
High margin of proft may create among consumers an impression that the company is charging high prices
for its product
Remedies
Splitting up of the shares- This will reduce the dividend per share
Issue of bonus share This will reduce both the dividend per share and earnings per share.

2.1 Introduction to Time Value of Money
One of the most fundamental concepts in fnance is that money has a time value. That is to say that money in
hand today is worth more than money that is expected to be received in the future. This leads us to summarise the
concept of time value: A Rupee today is worth more than a Rupee tomorrow."
Concept - Time value of money
A rupee, which is received today, is more valuable than a rupee receivable in future. The amount that is received
earlier period can be reinvested and it can earn an additional amount. Therefore, people prefer to receive the rupee
that is receivable at the earliest.
Rationale of time preference for money
Individual prefers value opportunity to receive money now rather than waiting for one or more years to receive the
same. It is referred to as an individual's time preference for money. There are three reasons that may be attributed
to the individual's time preference for money:
Uncertainty: Future is uncertain and it involves risk. An individual is not certain about future cash infows.
Hence, the individual would prefer to receive cash toady instead of future.
Current consumption: Most of the people prefer to use the present money for satisfying existing present
needs.
Possibility of investment opportunity: The reason why individuals prefer present money is due to the possibility
of investment opportunity through which they can earn additional cash.
2.2 Simple Interest
Simple interest is the interest paid on only the original amount, or principle borrowed. Simple amount is a function
of three components such as principle amount borrowed or lent, interest per annum and the number of years for
which the interest rate is calculated. Symbolically:
SI = Po (I) (n)
Where,
SI= Simple interest, Po= Principle amount at year '0', I= Interest rate per annum
n=Number of year for which interest is calculated
For instance
Mr. Dorabjee has deposited Rs.1,00,000 in a Savings bank account at 7 per cent simple interest and interest and
interested to keep the deposit for a period of 5 years. He requested you to give accumulated interest end of the
years.
Solution: SI = Po (I) (n) = Rs.1, 00,000 X 0.07 X 5 years= Rs. 35,000
If an investor wants to know his total future value at the end of 'n' years. Future value is the sum of accumulated
interest and the principal amount. Symbolically:
FVn = Po + Po (I) (n) OR SI + Po
For instance
Manish annual savings are Rs. 1000, which is invested in a bank saving fund account that pays a 5 % simple interest.
Krishna wants to know his total future value or terminal value at the end of 8 years period.
Solution: FVn = Po + Po (I) (n) OR SI + Po
FVn = Rs. 1000 + Rs. 1000 (0.05) (8) = Rs. 1,400
13/uts
2.3 Compound Interest
Here the future values of all cash infows at the end of the time horizon at a particular rate of interest are found,
interest is compounded when the amount earned on an initial deposit becomes part of the principal at the end of the
frst compounding period.
There is no difference between simple interest and compound interest when there is only one time investment yearly
compounding, and for only one year maturity. But the difference can be seen only when the investment is made for
more than two years. Compounding interest is also referred as future value (FV).
2.3.1 Compounding Value of a Single Amount
Compound value or future value on an account can be calculated by the following formula.
CV = Po (1 + I) n
Where,
CV = Compound value, Po = Principal amount, I = Interest per annum,
n = Number of years for which compound is done
(1 + I) n = CVIF I..n or future value inter factor for interest and 'n' years.
For instance: Suppose you have Rs. 10, 00,000 today and you deposit it with a fnancial institute, which pay 8 %
compound interest for a period of 5 years. Show how the deposit will grow.
Solution: CV = Po (1 + I) n
CV5 = 10, 00,000(1+0.08)5
= 10, 00,000 (1.469*)
CV5 = Rs. 14, 69,000
Note: * See compound value of one rupee Table for 5 years at 8 % rate of interest.
2.3.2 Variable Compounding Periods
Generally compounding is done once in a year. In the above problem, we assumed that the compounding is done
annually. If the investor promised to pay compound interest for variable periods, compound value with variable
compound periods is determined with the following formula.

Where,
CVn = Compound value at the end of year 'n', Po = Principal amount at the year '0', I = Interest per annum,
m = Number of times per year compounding is done
n = Maturity period
For instance (Semi compounding): How much does a deposit of Rs. 40,000 grow to at the end of 10 year at the rate
of 6 % interest and compounding is done semi-annually. Determine the amount at the end of 10 years.
Solution:
= Rs. 40,000 [*1.86] = Rs. 72,240
Note: * See compound value of one rupee Table for 20 years at 3 % rate of interest.
For Instance (Quarterly compounding): Suppose that a frm deposits Rs. 50 lakhs at the end of each year for 4 years
at the rate of 8 % interest and compounding is done on quarterly basis. What is the compound value at the end of
4 year?
Solution:
= Rs. 50, 00,000 [CVIF 2%..........16y]
= Rs. 50, 00,000 x 1.373 = Rs. 68, 65,000

Calculation of Compound Growth Rate
Compound growth rate can be calculated with the following formula:
gr:
Where gr= Growth rate in percentage
V= Variable for which the growth rate is needed to found (i.e. sales, revenue, dividend at the end of year '0')
Vo = Variable value at the end of year 1
Vn = Variable value (amount) at the end of year 'n'
For instance:
From the following dividend data of a company calculate compound rate of growth for period (1998-2003).
Year 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003
Dividend per share (Rs.) 21 22 25 26 28 31
Solution:
gr= 8%
Note
See compound one rupee Table for 5 years (total years one year) till you fnd closest value to the compound factor,
at closest value see upward to the table to get growth rate.
Compound Value of Series of cash Flows
Annuity means a series of cash fows (infow or outfow) of a fxed amount for a specifed number of years. Compound
value of a series of cash fows can be calculated by the following formula (uneven cash fows)
Where CVn= Compound value at the end of' 'n' year
P1 = Payment at the end of year 1, P2 = Payment at the end of year 2
Pn = Payment at the end of year 'n', I = Interest rate
CVn = P1 (CVIF I.1) + P2 (CVIF I.2) + Pn (1+I I.n)
For instance
Mr. Shyam deposits Rs. 5,000, Rs. 10,000, Rs. 15,000, Rs. 20,000 and Rs. 25,000 in his savings bank account in
year 1,2,3,4 and 5 respectively. Interest rate of 6 %, he wants to know his future value of deposits at the end of 5
years.
Solution: +

+


= 6,610 + 11,910 + 16,860 + 21,200 + 25,000
= Rs. 81,280
Compound Value of Annuity (Even Cash Flow)
Annuity is a series of even cash fows for a specifed duration. It involves a regular cash outfow or infow. For
instance like the payment of LIC premium, depositing in a recurring deposit account, and the like. Cash fows may
happen either at the end of year or beginning of the year. If cash fows happen at the beginning of the year, it is called
as an annuity due, where as when the cash fows happen at the end it is called as a regular or deferred annuity.
15/uts
Compound Value of Deferred Annuity
For instance: Mr. Ram deposits Rs. 500 at the end of every year for 6 years at 6 % interest. Determine Ram's money
value at the end of 6 years.
Solution:
+
= 500(1.338) + 500(1.262) + 500(1.191) + 500(1.124) + 500(1.060) + 500(1.00)
= 669 + 631 + 595.5 + 562 + 530 + 500
= Rs. 3487.5
Short cut formula for the above is:

Where,
P = Fixed periodic cash fow, I Interest rate
n = duration of the amount
= (CVIFA I.n)
(CVIFA I.n) = Future value for interest fact or annuity at 'I' interest and for 'n' years.
For the example above this formula can be used as below.

= 500(6.975)
= Rs. 3,487.5
Note: See compound value interest factor annuity Table of one rupee Table for 6 years at 6 % interest.
Compound Value of Annuity Due
When the cash fows involves at the beginning of the year compound value of annuity is calculated with the following
formula:

OR
For instance
Suppose you deposit Rs. 2,500 at the beginning of every year for 6 years in a saving bank account at 6 % compound
interest. What is your money value at the end of 6 years?
Solution:
= 2,500 (6.975) (1+0.06)
= Rs. 18, 4863.75
2.4 Doubling Period
Doubling period is the period required to double the amount invested at a given rate of interest.
Doubling period can be computed by adopting two rules:
Rule of 72: To get doubling period, 72 is dividend by interest rate.
Doubling period (DP) = 72 I
Where I = Interest rate, (%)
DP = Doubling period in years
Financial Management
16/uts
For instance:
If you deposit Rs. 500 today at 10 % of interest in how many years will this amount double?
Solution: DP = 72 I = 72 10 = 7.2 years (approx.)
Rule of 69
Rule of 72 may not give exact doubling period, but rule of 69 gives a more accurate doubling period. The formula
to calculate doubling period is
DP =0.35 + 69/I
For instance: If you deposit Rs. 500 today at 10 % of interest in how many years will this amount double?
Solution: 035 + 69/10 = 7.25 years
Effective rate of interest (ERI) in case of doubling period
Effective rate of interest can be defned with the use of following formula.
In case of rule of 72
ERI = 72 Doubling period (DP)
Where ERI = effective rate of interest, DP = Doubling period
In case of rule of 69
For instance
A fnancial institute has come with an offer to the public, where the institute pays double the amount invested in
the institute at the end of 8 years. Mr. A who is interested to deposit with institute wants to know the effective rate
of interest that will be given by institute.
Solution as per rule of 72: 72 8 years = 9 %
Solution as per rule of 69:

= 9 % (approx.)
2.5 Present Value
The present value of a future cash infow (or outfow) is the amount of current cash that is of equivalent value to the
present value. The processes of determining present value of future cash fows are called discounting. It is concerned
with determining the present value of a future amount, assuming that the decision maker has an opportunity to earn a
certain return on individual's money. This return is referred as discount rate, cost of capital or an opportunity cost.

Present value of a single amount
Present value can be calculated by the following formula:

OR
PV = Present value

= Future value receivable at the end of 'n' years
I = Interest rate or discounting factor or cost of capital
n = Duration of the cash fow

= present value interest facts at 'I' interest and for 'n' years
For instance
An investor wants to fnd the present value of Rs. 40,000 due 3 years. His interest rate is 10 %.
Solution:
= Rs. 40,000 [1
= Rs. 40,000 (0.751*)
17/uts
= Rs. 30,040
Note: * Present value of one rupee Table at 3 years for the arte of 10 %
Present value of a series of cash fows
We have calculated the present value of a single amount to be received after a specifed period. In many cases, we
may need to calculate present value of series cash fows. For example, in capital budgeting decisions, there is a need
to convert the future cash infows into present values to take decision and in case of raising funds through debt also
needs to convert the future cash outfows into present values. Cash fows over a period may be even or uneven.

Present Value of Annuity Due

(1+I)
For instance: Mr. Krishna has to receive Rs. 500 at the beginning of each year for 4 years. Calculate present value
of annuity due assuming 10 % rate of interest.
Solution:
= Rs. 1,743.5
2.6 Effective Vs Nominal Rate
Nominal rate of interest or rate of interest per year is equal. Effective and nominal rate are equal only when the
compounding is done yearly once, but there will be a difference, that is effective rate is greater than the nominal
rate for shorter compounding periods. Effective rate of interest can be calculated with the following formula.

Where, I = Nominal rate of interest
m = Frequency of compounding per year.
For instance
Mr. Y deposited Rs. 1,000 in a bank at 10% of rate of interest with quarterly compounding. He wants to know the
effective rate of interest.
Solution:
= 1.1038-1
= 0.1038 OR 10.38 %
2.7 Sinking Fund Factor
Financial manager may need to estimate the amount of annual payments so as to accumulate a predetermined
amount after a future date to purchase assets or to pay a liability. The following formula is useful to calculate the
annual payment.

Where, = Annual payment, , I = Interest rate
For instance: Finance manager of a company wants to buy an asset costing Rs. 1, 00,000 at the end of 10 years. He
Requests you to fnd out the annual payment required, if the savings earn an interest rate of 12% per annum.
Solution:
= 1, 00,000 (0.12/2.1058)
= Rs. 5.689
Present Value of Perpetuity
Perpetuity is an annuity of infnite duration. It may be expressed as:
Where: PV = Present value of a perpetuity
CIF = Constant annual cash infow
= PV interest factor for perpetuity
= CIF/I
For instance: Mr. X an investor expects a perpetual amount of Rs. 1000 annually from his investment. What is his
present value of perpetuity if the interest rate is 8 %?
Solution: = CIF/I
19/uts
= 1000/0.08 = Rs. 12,500
2.8 Loan Amortisation
Loan is an amount raised from outsiders at an interest and repayable at a specifed period. Payment of loan is known
as amortisation. Financial manager may take loan and may be interested to know the amount of equal installment
to be paid every year to repay the complete loan amount including interest. Installment can be calculated with the
following formula.
OR LI
Where: LI = Loan installment, = Principal amount, I = Interest, n = Loan repayment period at specifed interest
rate.
For instance: ABC company raised Rs. 10, 00,000 lakhs for an expansion program from IDBI at 7% interest per
year. The amount has to be repaid in 6 equal annual installments. Calculate the installment amount.
Solution:
= 10, 00,000 7.767
= Rs. 1, 28,750
Present Value of Growing Annuity
Growing annuity means the cash fows that grow at a constant rate for a specifed period of time.
Steps involved in calculation of growing annuity:
Calculate the series of cash fows
Convert the series of cash fows into present values at a given discount factor
Add all the present values of series of cash fows to get total PV of a growing annuity
Formula:
PVG
A
= PV of growing annuity
CIF = Cash infows
g= Growth rate
I = discount factor
n= Duration of the annuity
For instance: A Real estate Agency has rented out one of their apartment for 5 years at an annual rent of Rs. 6,00,000
with the stipulation that rent will increase by 5% in every year. If the agency's required rate at return is 14%. What
is the PV of expected (annuity) rent?
Solution: Calculate on series of annual rent
Year Amount of Rent (Rs.)
1 6,00,000
2 6,00,000 X (1+0.05) 6,30,000
3 6,30,000 X (1+0.05) 6,61,500
4 6,61,500 X (1+0.05) 6,94,575
5 6,94,575 X (1+0.05) 7,29,303.75

2.9 Shorter Discounting Periods
Generally cash fows are discounted once a year, but some times cash fows have to be discounted less than one
(year) time, like, semi-annually, quarterly, monthly or daily. The general formula used for calculating the PV in the
case of shorter discounting period is:
Where, PV = Present vale, = Cash infow after 'n' year, m= No. of times per year discounting is done
I= Discount rate
For instance: Mr. P expected to receive Rs. 1, 00,000 at the end of 4 years. His required rate of return is 12% and
he wants to know PV of Rs. 1, 00,000 with quarterly discounting.
Solution:
= 1, 00,000 X
= 1, 00,000 X 0.623
= Rs. 62,300

Summary
One of the most fundamental concepts in fnance is that money has a time value. That is to say that money
in hand today is worth more than money that is expected to be received in the future.
Simple interest is the interest paid on only the original amount, or principle borrowed.
Simple amount is a function of three components such as principle amount borrowed or lent, interest per annum
and the number of years for which the interest rate is calculated.
Doubling period is the period required to double the amount invested at a given rate of interest.
The present value of a future cash infow (or outfow) is the amount of current cash that is of equivalent value
to the present value.
Effective and nominal rate are equal only when the compounding is done yearly once, but there will be a
difference, that is effective rate is greater than the nominal rate for shorter compounding periods.
Loan is an amount raised from outsiders at an interest and repayable at a specifed period. Payment of loan is
known as amortisation.

3.1 Introduction to Valuation
Valuation is the process of linking risk with returns to determine the worth of an asset. The value of an asset depends
on the cash fow it is expected to provide over the holding period. The fact is that, as on date there is no method by
which prices of shares and bonds can be accurately predicted. It should be kept in mind by an investor before one
decides to take an investment decision.
3.2 Nature of Value
Book value: It is an accounting concept. Assets are recorded in balance sheet at their book values. Book value
of an asset is cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation. It is determined by the formula below.
Market value: Market value of an asset is the price at which the asset is bought or sold in the market. Market
value per share is generally higher than the book value per share for proftable and growing frms.
Going concern value: It is the value that a frm can be realised if it sells its business as a continuing operating
business. This value would be higher than the liquidation and book value. Valuation of securities is always
considered as going concern, because if the frm is not running, investors would not invest in securities
Liquidation value: Liquidation value is the actual amount that can be realised when an asset is sold. Liquidation
value of a equity stock is the actual amount that would be received if all of the frm's assets were sold at their
market value, liabilities were paid, and the remaining proceeds were by number of equity shares outstanding.
Intrinsic value: Investors invest on equity stock with an expectation of intrinsic cash infow stream. The present
value of the cash infows expected from a security over its holding period. Present value is computed by
discounting future cash infows at an appropriate rate. It is also called economic value.
3.3 Bond Valuation
A bond is a legal document issued by the issuing company under is common seal acknowledging a debt and setting
forth the terms under which they are issued and are to be paid. Bond is also known as 'debenture'. Bonds are issued
by different types of organisations like the government, fnancial institutions, public sector undertaking and private
sector organisations.
Few important terms in bond valuation are as follows:
Par value: The par value (Face Value) is stated on the face of the bond. It is the amount at which a bond is issued
to public, and promises to pay either at the end of maturity period or in pre-decided installments.
Coupon rate: Coupon rate is the interest rate with which a bond is issued. The interest payable at regular intervals
is the product of the par value and the coupon rate broken down to the relevant time horizon.
Maturity period: Refers to the number of years after which the par value becomes payable to the bond-holder.
Redemption value: It is the amount the bond-holder gets on maturity. A bond may be redeemed at par, at a
premium (bond-holder gets more than the par value of the bond) or at a discount (bond-holder gets less than
the par value of the bond)
Market value: It is the price at which the bond is traded in the stock exchange. Market price is the price at which
the bonds can be bought and sold and this price maybe different from par value and redemption value.

3.3.1 Types of Bonds
Following are the types of bonds:
Redeemable Bond
A bond which the issuer has the right to redeem prior to its maturity date, under certain conditions. The appropriate
discount rate is cost of debt (kd) required rate of return on bond (debenture).

OR
Where,
BVo = Value of bond (debenture) at time 'zero'
I = Annual interest paid per year
M = Maturity of bond
N = Number of years to maturity
kd= Required rate of return, or cost of debt
PVIF = Present value interest factor
PVIFA = Present value interest factor annuity
For instance: AB company issues Rs. 1,000 par value bond at 12%. The bond is redeemable after 10 years. Determine
value of bond assuming required rate of return is 14%.
Solution:
BVo = (Rs.120 X 5.216) + (Rs. 1,000 X 0.270)
BVo = Rs. 625.92 + Rs. 270
BVo = Rs. 895.92
Bond values with semi-annual interest
With the effect of compounding, the value of bonds with semi-annual interest is much more than the ones with
annual interest payments. Hence the bond valuation equation can be modifed as:

OR
For instance: MNC company issues bonds with face value of Rs. 1,000 each, at 12% per coupon rate with interest
payable semi-annually. The bonds are redeemable after 5 years. Determine value of bond if required rate of return
on this type of bond is 14%.
Solution:
BVo = (Rs. 60 X 7.024) + (Rs. 1,000 X 0.508
= Rs. 421.44 + Rs. 508
= Rs. 929.44
Irredeemable Bond
Irredeemable bond is the bond which is not repaid till closing of the frm. It is the bond without maturity period.
Value of perpetual bond is determined by the following formula.

OR
For instance: A company has issued 12 % perpetual bond of Rs. 1,000 each. Determine value of bond assuming 15
% cost of debt.
Solution: BVo = = Rs.120/.015 = Rs.800
27/uts
Zero Coupon Bonds
In India Zero coupon bonds are also known as Deep discount bonds. These bonds have no coupon rate, that is, there
is no interest to be paid out. Instead, these bonds are issued at a discount to their face value, and the face value is
the amount payable to the holder of the instrument on maturity. The difference between the discounted issue price
and face value is effective interest earned by the investor. These are called deep discount bonds because these bonds
are long term bonds whose maturity some time extends up to 25 to 30 years.
3.4 Bond Yields
Along with the bond value, investors are also interested in knowing the yield on bonds. Yields on bonds can be
measured by applying various measures. They are:
Yield to Maturity (YTM)
It is the rate of return that an investor earns if they buy a bond at a specifc price and hold it until maturity.
If bond is sold at par and realised par value fully then yield to maturity equals to interest rate YTM is computed
by using the following formulae.
Where,
SP = Sales proceeds a bond (price of bond)
I = Annual Interest payment (Rs.)
M = Maturity value of bond
n= Maturity period
Kd= Yield to maturity
Illustration: XYZ company bond, currently sells for Rs.1, 000 (Face value 900) it has a 10% interest rate, and with
a maturity period of 10 years.
OR

Financial Management

= 8.49 %
Yield to Call (YTC)
Yield to call is exactly similar to YTM, but here yield is found till the call of the bond. Some corporate issues bonds
with call feature that allows the company call back the bond before maturity period. In such cases bond holder would
not have the option of holding the bond until the maturity period. Therefore, YTM would not ne earned. YTC is
computed with the following formula:
Where, CP = Call price of bond, n*= Number of years until the assumed call date
For instance: ABC company issues 10 % callable bonds with a face value of Rs. 1000. The bond is currently selling
of Rs. 1,100. Maturity period is 10 years. Determine YTC assuming company calls bonds after 5 years because
interest rate has fallen by 2% at Rs. 1000.
Solution:
Years CIFs (Rs.) DF PV (Rs.)
10% 5% 10% 5%

(-) Current price (-)99.55 116.9
Yield to Call =
= 5% +
= 5% + 2.69
= 7.69 %
Current yield
It is the yield that relates to the annual interest to the annual interest to the current market price.
Current Yield = I CMP
Where: I = Annual Interest (Rs.)
CMP = Current market price
For instance: From the following determine current yield on a bond
Face value of bond Rs.1200
Interest Rate 13 %
Maturity 10Years
Current market price Rs. 1000
Solution:
29/uts
From the above calculation we can see that yield represents analyse interest rate, it excludes capital gain or loss. It
ignores time value of money. Therefore, it is not a accurate measure of the bonds expected return.
3.5 Bond Value Behaviors
Following are the bond values discussed below.
3.5.1 Required Rate of Return and Bond Values
Whenever there is change in the required rate of return, bond value shows fuctuations from its par value. Required
rate of return may change, due to shift in the basic cost of long-term sources of fnance, and the change in the frm's
risk level.
Let us determine value of bond considering the following three cases.
Value of bond when interest-rate equals to required rate of return in this case value of bond is equals to par
value.
For instance: A public lid company issued 2 years ago 12% bond with a face value of Rs. 1,000 for 8 years. Investors
required rate of return is 12%. Determine value of bond.
Solution:
B = (Rs.120 X4.111) + (Rs. 1,000 X 0.507)
= Rs. 493.32 + 507
= Rs. 1,000
Value of bond when required rate of return is higher than the interest- rate in this case value of bond would
be less than par value
For instance: A public lid company issued 2 years ago 12% bond with a face value of Rs. 1,000 for 8 years. Investors
required rate of return is 15%. Determine value of bond
Solution:
B = (Rs.120 X3.784) + (Rs. 1,000 X 0.432)
= Rs. 454.08 + 432
= Rs. 886.08
Value of bond when required rate of return is less than interest rate In this case, value of bond would be above
par value.
For instance: A public lid company issued 2 years ago 12% bond with a face value of Rs. 1,000 for 8 years. Investors
required rate of return is 10%. Determine value of bond
Solution:
B = (Rs.120 X4.355) + (Rs. 1,000 X 0.564)
= Rs. 522.60 + 564
= Rs. 1086.6
Financial Management
30/uts
In nutshell the relationship between bond values and required rate of return is given below:
Interest Rate > Required Rate: Bond Value > Par Value
Interest Rate = Required Rate: Bond Value = Par Value
Interest Rate < Required Rate: Bond Value < Par Value
3.5.2 Time to Maturity and Bond Values
Value of Bond: When I (%) = Kd (%) and change in the time period- In this case value of bond is equals to par
value, whatever may be the maturity period.
For instance: A company issues bond at 10% coupon rate, and with a face value of Rs. 1,000 maturity period
is 10 year. Required rate of return is 10%. Determine value of bond when time period is (i) 5 years, and (ii) 15
years.
Solution: Value Bond: I(%) = Kd (%) [10%=10%]
Maturity Period Equation Value of Bond (Rs.)
(i) 5 years
10 years
(ii) 15 years
(100 X3.79)+(1000X0.621)
(100 X6.145)+(1000X0.386)
(100 X7.606)+(1000X0.239)
379 + 621= 1,000
614 + 386 = 1,000
761 + 239 = 1,000
Value of bond remains same (at par value) when interest rate equals to required rate of return, with the change
in time period to maturity.
Value of Bond: When I (%) < Kd (%) and change in the time period - In this case, value of bond decreases
when the time period to maturity increases and vice versa.
For instance: A company issues bond at 10% coupon rate, and with a face value of Rs. 1,000 maturity period
is 10 year. Required rate of return is 12%. Determine value of bond when time period is (i) 5 years, and (ii) 15
years.
Solution: Value Bond: I(%)< Kd (%) [10% < 12%]

360.5 +567 = 927.5
565 + 322 = 887
681.1 + 183 = 864.1
Value of bond decreases with the increase time period of maturity.
Value of Bond: When I (%) > Kd (%) and change in the time period to maturity In this case value of bond
increases when time period to maturity increases.
For instance: A company issues bond at 10% coupon rate, and with a face value of Rs. 1,000 maturity period
is 10 year. Required rate of return is 6%. Determine value of bond when time period is (i) 5 years, and (ii) 15
years.
Solution: Value Bond: I (%)>Kd (%) [10% > 6%]

Fig. 3.1 Bond value and time to maturity
Following points can be extracted from the fgure above:
When required rate of return equals to coupon rate, a bond will sell at face value. At the time of issue of bond
interest rate is set at par with required rate of return, to sell bond of par initially.
When required rate of return increases above coupon rate then, the bond value falls below par value. Such bond
is known as 'discount bond'.
When required rate of return falls below the interest rate, then the band values goes above par value. This bond
is called as 'premium bond'
Increase in required rate of return affects bond values (go up or fall below par value).
Market value of bond will always reach its face value by the end of its maturity period, provided the frm does
not go bankrupt.
3.6 Valuation of Shares
A company's shares may be categorised as
Ordinary / Equity shares
Preference shares
The returns these shareholders receive are called dividends. Preference shareholders get a preferential treatment
as to the payment of dividend and repayment of capital in the event of winding up. Such holders are eligible for a
fxed rate of dividends. Some important features of preference and equity shares are.
Dividends
Rate is fxed for preference shareholders. They can be given cumulative rights, that is, the dividend can be paid off
after accumulation. The dividend rate is not fxed for equity shareholders. The dividend rate is not fxed for equity
shareholders.
Financial Management
32/uts
Claims
In the event of the business closing down, the preference shareholders have a prior claim on the assets of the company.
Their claims shall be settled frst and the balance if any will be paid off to equity shareholders.
Redemption
Preference shares have a maturity date on which day the company pays off the face value of the share to the holders.
Preference shares are of two types redeemable and irredeemable.
Conversion
A company can issue convertible preference shares. After a particular period as mentioned in the share certifcate,
the preference shares can be converted into ordinary shares.
3.6.1 Valuation of Preference Shares
Preference share gives some preferential rights to preference stockholders. The preferential rights are payment of fxed
rate of dividend and payment of principal amount at the time of liquidation, before paying to equity stockholders.
Value of preference stock is the present value of fxed annual dividends expected and he principal amount.

For instance
A company issued 12% preference stock with a face value of Rs. 100, redeemable after 5 years. Required rate of
return is 10%. Determine value of preferred stock.
Solution:

= Rs. 45.492 + 62.1
= Rs. 107.592
3.6.2 Valuation of Equity/Ordinary Shares
People hold common stocks for two reasons:
To obtain dividends in a timely manner
To get a higher amount when sold.
33/uts
The value of a share which an investor is willing to pay is linked with the cash infows expected and risks associated
with these infows. Intrinsic value of a share is associated with the earnings (past) and proftability (future) of the
company, dividends paid and expected and future defnite prospects of the company.
Basic share valuation model
Stock value is present value of future cash infows (dividends) that it is expected to provide over an infnite time
horizon. An investor who buys a stock with the intention of holding in forever, on this case the value of equity stock
is the present value of a stream of dividends expected over an infnite period.
Where: ESo = Value of equity stock
Dt = Expected dividend per share at the end of year 't'
Ke = Required return on equity (cash of equity)
Under this we learn valuation of equity share using three models:
Zero growth
Constant growth
Variable growth
Single period valuation
Here the value of the equity share is determined assuming an investors holds stock for one year period.

Where, = Value of stock
= expected dividend at the end of one year
= Price of the share at the end of one year
= Required rate of return
For instance
Mr. A purchased an equity stock of Gokul Company at Rs. 100 per share, it is expected to provide a dividend of Rs.
10 per share, and fetch a price of Rs. 110 after one year. Compute stock value assuming required date of return.
Solution:
= (Rs. 10x0.877) + (Rs. 110 X 0.877)
= Rs.8.77 + Rs. 96.47
= Rs. 105.24
Zero Growth Model: It is the model under which value of stock is determined assuming dividends are not
expected to grow, (non-growing). Here value of equity stock is the present value of perpetuity of dividends:
Constant Growth (Gorden) Model: In this model value of equity stock is valued assuming that dividends would
growth at a constant rate.

Variable Growth Model: Growth of the frm should be different life cycle. That is in the early stages growth's much
be faster than that of economy as a whole. Economic growth in the later stages the growth comes down.
It is calculated in four step process.
Compute the value of the dividends at the end of each year during the super normal growth period.

Compute the present value of the dividends expected during the initial growth period

Determine PV value of stock at the end of the initial growth period.

PV of stock is

Add the PV found in step 2 and step 3 to get intrinsic value of stock. (ESo)

Summary
Valuation is the process of linking risk with returns to determine the worth of an asset. The value of an asset
depends on the cash fow it is expected to provide over the holding period.
Book value is an accounting concept. Assets are recorded in balance sheet at their book values. Book value of
an asset is cost of acquisition less accumulated depreciation.
Market value of an asset is the price at which the asset is bought or sold in the market. Market value per share
is generally higher than the book value per share for proftable and growing frms.
Liquidation value of a equity stock is the actual amount that would be received if all of the frm's assets were
sold at their market value, liabilities were paid, and the remaining proceeds were by number of equity shares
outstanding.
A bond is a legal document issued by the issuing company under is common seal acknowledging a debt and
setting forth the terms under which they are issued and are to be paid.
Irredeemable bond is the bond which is not repaid till closing of the frm. It is the bond without maturity
period.
