Company's financial resourcesAmong the company’s financial resources, needed for the creation, development and expansion, can differentiate or equity funds, which assume the risk of business management, consisting of contributions from the partners in cash or shares, and reserves (accumulated profits) and borrowed funds, from third parties, for example, suppliers that provide goods on credit and bank loans, which the company agrees to repay principal and pay interest, short, medium or long term. These offers of cash are held in the so-called financial market where companies can choose the most flexible loan with lower interest rate, and also the place to put their surplus in storage, sensing an interest in if not reinvested.

An important source of corporate financing is the issuance of bonds convertible into shares, the more distant background is the “London Water Company” where King Carlos I used this method to convert their shares in liabilities. Began to be used in Germany since 1924. They are also widely used in the United States and Canada. They are used to financial crises or business expansion.

The financial resources of companies in their management, or movement of funds available, are in charge of a specific area, called for financial management, which handles the company’s liquidity and profitability. It is very important to perform financial planning, it becomes a strategic plan for how to get funds and how to invest.

Planning for your financial core (2)

financial coreContinuing with Part 2 of the article on finance … observe some cases using the reference amount to be invested. Let’s say you invest up to $ 2,500 in a business. For this amount, the only option that would be available would be a bank note, we assume available between 9 and 12 percent annual interest. It is not difficult to give you your own company interests greater than this amount.

For amounts ranging from $ 5.000 to $ 15.000, a good indicator is the average performance of an investment company debt and common, ie, operators that invest in government instruments and shares of companies (together the amount of many small access to investors and financial spaces usually reserved for big cities).

The average annual yield granted by these figures, ranging from 15 to 22 percent. A very respectable and competitive when compared to a good deal. If your investment capacity is in this area examines how the company will open you will give as much or more the first year of operation.
For larger amounts, say from $ 20.000 There are two good parameters: one, the performance of Cetes and another (reality adjusted risk of a business) is undoubtedly the index of the Stock Exchange. This is when you compare if the amount of money you invest in a company will receive about the same level of performance than if they invested in these alternatives.

Now, you think that the business will ride plans to recoup their investment until the second or third year of operations. In this case you should request that you make a projection of what would earn during that period in other investment options. Of course, this is much more difficult, because the projections can be altered radically (for better or worse) for reasons totally unexpected by analysts. Here the risk increases.

Make Money
There are two main reasons to invest in a business, want to diversify your capital or the desire to become independent professionally. Either way, both options have the same base: make money. Okay, the commitment here is to find the business that will give the best returns to your initial capital.
There are entrepreneurs who say: “I do not earn money but how to entertain me!” Clever phrase, but it should be noted that some people are entertained, have fun and also a profit. With all this, we invite you to reflect on how to start your business if you have it, or evaluate the company you want to open.

This does not mean you should discard those businesses that do not ensure high yields. Rather it is to compare and evaluate investment earnings of your business. One of your goals might be based on your investment amount, income must equal or exceed those of other financial instruments.

To get there you will see issues such as savings, productivity, lowering operating costs and others. With this exercise of comparison, we also have a better idea of ​​risk that you will be assuming. Finally, all this will serve to better manage your business and enjoy more of your work.

Planning for your financial base

A key element in planning your business is finance. Before starting, identify advantages and financial risks and checks the performance of your business idea or company.

If someone asked you what the performance it offers your business a month or a year, would you be ready to respond quickly? Let’s put it another way: do you know how much you have earned and invested in your business?
If you answered right away, yet it is you’ve invested less than you earn, you can be sure that your company is a windfall. If you had to do math to analyze these points or is that you have recovered your investment, this article is for you.

First of all, it is important to know what business performance: Suppose you want to start a business and require $ 10,000 to do so. This amount represents the capital. Well, now suppose that at the end of the second year of operation (the first thinking that you gave to payback), other accounts which earned $ 1.200 after paying your suppliers, employees, operating expenses and taxes. In this case, we can say you got a 12 percent return on your capital, and for this gain, you should have work all year in your business.

Is it good 12 percent of performance? It all depends what you compare against, maybe the question is, how much would have earned by putting that same money in the bank? Possibly a figure very close, but yes, without lifting a finger.

When a business is not business
The return on investment has to be the parameter to measure how desirable or not to invest in a particular business, and we must also serve to assess their annual performance.

The rule is clear: if a business does not give us a higher throughput can be obtained by investing in a low-risk financial instrument and not doing anything, business is business.

This is the main cause that makes a country with low interest rates for savings, create many new business. The opposite happens in countries with high interest rates, where almost no new businesses, especially small and medium sizes.
That is, if you will not earn much money in the bank, the best you can do is start a business, where it will increase your chances of profit.

The entrepreneur who is willing to risk their money or their business partners, has to be clear about two basic principles: the money is invested to winning, and yields almost always go hand in hand with the level of risk assume (a higher risk, higher performance). In this area, the worst combination you can find is high risk and low return. Sometimes the entrepreneur, driven by his enthusiasm, not enough to clearly identify this point.
The expected return on investment can easily be compared with other investment options. In analyzing the results, you decide to participate or not in the business.

Short Term Deposits

Interest rates are very low. In previous articles we gave some advice on high-yield deposits that could still recruit even earlier this year, but at this stage of the crisis and Euribor from soils (an advantage for those with mortgage), it is really hard to find deposits have the same yields as last year.

However, not everything is gray. Experts predict a future rise in interest rates, possibly later this year or early 2010. That would be a very propitious moment to hire a good deposit of these to one year with an attractive interest.

Until that moment, what we can do is opt for the existing short-term deposits in the banking system today. They come in 3 or 6 months. It is true that when returns are handled very small (between 1 and 3%) but otherwise have a very low CPI (1%) resulting in a range of customer purchasing power to the tank.

Before hiring a deposit, always assure the cancellation policy. Most, to cancel early, forcing you to pay compensation but it never exceeds the interest earned. What is sacrosanct is the initial capital that you have deposited.

Buy gold to protect your heritage

An example and a recommendation. Go to your advisor and put a few accounts with him. Sell some stock with unrealized gains and others with disabilities, calculating the compensation payment of taxes for not making the cinnamon. With the proceeds, which has always given us a surplus, buy ounces of gold, or bullion, which also have no VAT. There are panels of experts are currently recommending to spend up to half of the savings to buy physical gold to protect the investment portfolio of market volatility and the clouds of the future.

Obviously, if gold goes up, more than expected, and you sell your bullion or coins, you will pay a corresponding 18%, 19% or 21% on capital gains, but now, of course, buy gold is better than bought, For example, an apartment as an investment, for a flat payment of VAT and half a dozen other taxes and duties, and also with the gold you protect the assets of his family against the sharp rise in inflation that experts expect from 2011 . Gold is a shield, a shield to protect their heritage, without which the State can stick their noses. It is like putting money in a sock, but with appreciation, or at least no real loss of value, which it notes is lost.

A further recommendation: do not put gold in a sock to keep it under the mattress. Do not be so sloppy because if something happens, your insurance company will not cover it, except to extend your policy and pay you a fortune and also be forced to buy a safe to install in your home. No need. There are safer methods. For example, rent a safe deposit box at your bank. It is much cheaper and much safer for you and your family.
