Financial analysis (also referred to as financial statement analysis or accounting analysis or Analysis of
finance) refers to an assessment of the viability, stability and profitability of a business, sub-business
or project.
It is performed by professionals who prepare reports using ratios that make use of information taken
from financial statements and other reports. These reports are usually presented to top management as
one of their bases in making business decisions.

Continue or discontinue its main operation or part of its business;

Make or purchase certain materials in the manufacture of its product;

Acquire or rent/lease certain machineries and equipment in the production of its goods;

Issue stocks or negotiate for a bank loan to increase its working capital;

Make decisions regarding investing or lending capital;

Other decisions that allow management to make an informed selection on various alternatives in the
conduct of its business.

Financial analysts often assess the following elements of a firm:

1. Profitability - its ability to earn income and sustain growth in both the short- and long-term. A
company's degree of profitability is usually based on the income statement, which reports on the
company's results of operations;

2. Solvency - its ability to pay its obligation to creditors and other third parties in the long-term;
3. Liquidity - its ability to maintain positive cash flow, while satisfying immediate obligations;

Both 2 and 3 are based on the company's balance sheet, which indicates the financial condition of a business
as of a given point in time.

4. Stability - the firm's ability to remain in business in the long run, without having to sustain
significant losses in the conduct of its business. Assessing a company's stability requires the use
of both the income statement and the balance sheet, as well as other financial and non-financial
indicators. etc.

Public Finance (PUB FIN)

Public finance is the study of the role of the government in the economy.[1]
The purview of public finance is considered to be threefold: governmental effects on
(1) efficient allocation of resources, (2) distribution of income, and (3) macroeconomic stabilization.
Public Finance Management
Collection of sufficient resources from the economy in an appropriate manner along with allocating and
use of these resources efficiently and effectively constitute good financial management. Resource
generation, resource allocation and expenditure management (resource utilization) are the essential
components of a public financial management system.
Public Finance Management (PFM) basically deals with all aspects of resource mobilization and
expenditure management in government. Just as managing finances is a critical function of management
in any organization, similarly public finance management is an essential part of the governance process.
Public finance management includes resource mobilization, prioritization of programmes, the budgetary
process, efficient management of resources and exercising controls. Rising aspirations of people are
placing more demands on financial resources. At the same time, the emphasis of the citizenry is on value
for money, thus making public finance management increasingly vital.

Corporate Finance( CORP FIN)

Corporate finance is the area of finance dealing with monetary decisions that business enterprises make
and the tools and analysis used to make these decisions. The primary goal of corporate finance is
to maximize shareholder value.[1] Although it is in principle different from managerial finance which
studies the financial decisions of all firms, rather than corporations alone, the main concepts in the study
of corporate finance are applicable to the financial problems of all kinds of firms.
The terms corporate finance and corporate financier are also associated with investment banking. The
typical role of aninvestment bank is to evaluate the company's financial needs and raise the appropriate
type of capital that best fits those needs. Thus, the terms corporate finance and corporate financier
may be associated with transactions in which capital is raised in order to create, develop, grow or acquire
businesses.
Capital investment decisions are long-term choices about which projects receive investment, whether to
finance that investment with equity or debt, and when or whether to paydividends to shareholders. On
the other hand, short term decisions deal with the short-term balance of current assets and current
liabilities; the focus here is on managing cash, inventories, and short-term borrowing and lending (such
as the terms on credit extended to customers)
The investment decision
Management must allocate limited resources between competing opportunities (projects) in a process
known as capital budgeting.[3] Making this investment, or capital allocation, decision requires estimating
the value of each opportunity or project, which is a function of the size, timing and predictability of
future cash flows.
Corporate finance and accounting professionals are responsible for managing a business's moneyforecasting where it will come from, knowing where it is, and helping its managers decide how to spend
it in ways that will ensure the greatest return. They pore over spreadsheets that detail cash flow,
profitability, and expenses. They look for ways to free up capital, increase profitability, and decrease
expenses.

FIN RES 2
Hows your vacation?

Half of my time during vacation was spent for helping my parents on our small business; the other half
was for my pleasure time such; playing computer games, searching the net, listening to music, sleeping and other
things. It was also the time for me and family to have some bonding together, by simply attending to holy mass
every Sunday morning and sometimes after the mass, my family and I went to malls to eat and at the same time to
relax ourselves and prepare for another week.
Moreover, I have visited some of my cousins and high school friends. My whole vacation was quite simple
but indeed I was able to regain my energy for this school year and most importantly, through get together
activities and bonding moments, I was able to enrich my relationship with my family and friends.

Expectations for this school year?

More challenging than last school year
As I heard from higher batch, this school year is really challenging. There will be more analysis
reports, difficult exams and harder subject matter.
More exciting
There will be more and new hands on activities to learn. We all know that experience is the best
teacher thus; there will be more appreciation of subjects thought.
More friends
More academic and beyond academic learning
There will be more new useful ideas and knowledgeable experience that we can learn and apply
it on real life, and also more educational advices from our brilliant educator are expected for us to be well balance
and efficient soldier for our future workforce.

Yes, this year will certainly be challenging but definitely it will bring fun/happiness in the end because all of these
difficulties will mold us into our best existence and will elevate us one step higher to our main goal
