Role of Financial Managers:
The role of a financial manager can be discussed under the
following heads:
1. Nature of work
2. Working conditions
3. Employment
4. Training, Other qualifications and Advancement
5. Job outlook
6. Related occupations
Let us discuss each of these in a detailed manner.
1. Nature of work
Almost every firm, government agency and organization has
one or more financial managers who oversee the preparation of financial
reports, direct investment activities, and implement cash management
strategies. As computers are increasingly used to record and organize data,
many financial managers are spending more time developing strategies and
implementing the long-term goals of their organization.
The duties of financial managers vary with their specific titles,
which include controller, treasurer or finance officer, credit manager, cash
manager, and risk and insurance manager. Controllersdirect the preparation
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
6/94
of financial reports that summarize and forecast the organizations financial
position, such as income statements, balance sheets, and analyses of future
earnings or expenses. Regulatory authorities also in charge of preparingspecial reports require controllers. Often, controllers oversee the accounting,
audit, and budget departments. Treasurers and finance officers direct the
organizations financial goals, objectives, and budgets. They oversee the
investment of funds and manage associated risks, supervise cash
management activities, execute capital-raising strategies to support a firms
expansion, and deal with mergers and acquisitions. Credit managers oversee
the firms issuance of credit. They establish credit-rating criteria, determine
credit ceilings, and monitor the collections of past-due accounts. Managers
specializing in international finance develop financial and accounting
systems for the banking transactions of multinational organizations.
Cash managers monitor and control the flow of cash receipts
and disbursements to meet the business and investment needs of the firm.
For example, cash flow projections are needed to determine whether loans
must be obtained to meet cash requirements or whether surplus cash should
be invested in interest-bearing instruments.Risk and insurance managers
oversee programs to minimize risks and losses that might arise from
financial transactions and business operations undertaken by the institution.
They also manage the organizations insurance budget.
Financial institutions, such as commercial banks, savings and
loan associations, credit unions, and mortgage and finance companies,
employ additional financial managers who oversee various functions, such
as lending, trusts, mortgages, and investments, or programs, including sales,
-

operations, or electronic financial services. These managers may be required
to solicit business, authorize loans, and direct the investment of funds,
always adhering to State laws and regulations.
Branch managers of financial institutions administer and
manage all of the functions of a branch office, which may include hiring
personnel, approving loans and lines of credit, establishing a rapport with
the community to attract business, and assisting customers with account
problems. Financial managers who work for financial institutions must keep
abreast of the rapidly growing array of financial services and products.
In addition to the general duties described above, all financial
managers perform tasks unique to their organization or industry. For
example, government financial managers must be experts on the government
appropriations and budgeting processes, whereas healthcare financial
managers must be knowledgeable about issues surrounding healthcare
financing. Moreover, financial managers must be aware of special tax laws
and regulations that affect their industry.
Financial managers play an increasingly important role in
mergers and consolidations and in global expansion and related financing.
These areas require extensive, specialized knowledge on the part of the
financial manager to reduce risks and maximize profit. Financial managers
increasingly are hired on a temporary basis to advise senior managers on
these and other matters. In fact, some small firms contract out all accounting
and financial functions to companies that provide these services.

4. Training, Other qualifications and Advancement
A bachelors degree in finance, accounting, economics, or
business administration is the minimum academic preparation for financial
managers. However, many employers now seek graduates with a masters
degree, preferably in business administration, economics, finance, or risk
management. These academic programs develop analytical skills and
provide knowledge of the latest financial analysis methods and technology.
Experience may be more important than formal education for
some financial manager positionsnotably, branch managers in banks.
Banks typically fill branch manager positions by promoting experienced
loan officers and other professionals who excel at their jobs. Other financial
managers may enter the profession through formal management training
programs offered by the company.
Continuing education is vital for financial managers, who must
cope with the growing complexity of global trade, changes in State laws andregulations, and the proliferation of new and complex financial instruments.
Firms often provide opportunities for workers to broaden their knowledge
and skills by encouraging employees to take graduate courses at colleges and
universities or attend conferences related to their specialty. Financial
management, banking, and credit union associations, often in cooperation
with colleges and universities, sponsor numerous national and local training
programs. Persons enrolled prepare extensively at home and then attend
sessions on subjects such as accounting management, budget management,
corporate cash management, financial analysis, international banking, and

information systems. Many firms pay all or part of the costs for employees
who successfully complete courses. Although experience, ability, and
leadership are emphasized for promotion, this type of special study mayaccelerate advancement.
In some cases, financial managers also may broaden their skills
and exhibit their competency by attaining professional certification. There
are many different associations that offer professional certification
programs. For example, the Association for Investment Management and
Research confers the Chartered Financial Analyst designation on investment
professionals who have a bachelors degree, pass three sequential
examinations, and meet work experience requirements. The Association for
Financial Professionals (AFP) confers the Certified Cash Manager credential
to those who pass a computer-based exam and have a minimum of 2 years of
relevant experience. The Institute of Management Accountants offers a
Certified in Financial Management designation to members with a BA and
at least 2 years of work experience who pass the institutes four-part
examination and fulfill continuing education requirements. Also, financial
managers who specialize in accounting may earn the Certified Public
Accountant (CPA) or Certified Management Accountant (CMA)
designations.
Candidates for financial management positions need a broad
range of skills. Interpersonal skills are important because these jobs involve
managing people and working as part of a team to solve problems. Financial
managers must have excellent communication skills to explain complex

financial data. Because financial managers work extensively with various
departments in their firm, a broad overview of the business is essential.
Financial managers should be creative thinkers and problem-
solvers, applying their analytical skills to business. They must be
comfortable with the latest computer technology. As financial operations
increasingly are affected by the global economy, financial managers must
have knowledge of international finance. Proficiency in a foreign language
also may be important.
Because financial management is critical for efficient business
operations, well-trained, experienced financial managers who display a
strong grasp of the operations of various departments within their
organization are prime candidates for promotion to top management
positions. Some financial managers transfer to closely related positions in
other industries. Those with extensive experience and access to sufficient
capital may start their own consulting firms.
5. Job outlook
Some companies may hire financial managers on a temporary
basis, to see the organization through a short-term crisis or to offer
suggestions for boosting profits. Other companies may contract out all
accounting and financial operations. Even in these cases, however, financial
managers may be needed to oversee the contracts.
Computer technology has reduced the time and staff required to
produce financial reports. As a result, forecasting earnings, profits, and

Need of working capital management
The need for working capital gross or current assets cannot be over emphasized As
already observed, the objective of financial decision making is to maximize the
shareholders wealth. To achieve this, it is necessary to generate sufficient profits
can be earned will naturally depend upon the magnitude of the sales among other
things but sales can not convert into cash. There is a need for working capital in
the form of current assets to deal with the problem arising out of lack of immediate
realization of cash against goods sold. Therefore sufficient working capital is
necessary to sustain sales activity. Technically this is refers to operating or cash cycle. If
the company has certain amount of cash, it will be required for purchasing the raw
material may be available on credit basis. Then the company has to spend some
amount for labour and factory overhead to convert the raw material in work in
progress, and ultimately finished goods. These finished goods convert in to sales on
credit basis in the form of sundry debtors. Sundry debtors are converting into cash after
expiry of credit period. Thus some amount of cash is blocked in raw materials,
WIP, finished goods, and sundry debtors and day to day cash requirements. However
some part of current assets may be financed by the current liabilities also. The amount
required to be invested in this current assets is always higher than the funds available
from current liabilities. This is the precise reason why the needs for working capital arise

An Introduction To Working Capital Management
Working capital means the part of the total assets of the business that change
from one form to another form in the ordinary course of business operations.
Concept of working capital:-
The word working capital is made of two words 1.Working and 2. Capital
The word working means day to day operation of the business, whereas the word
capital means monetary value of all assets of the business.
Working capital : -
Working capital may be regarded as the life blood of business. Working capital is
of major importance to internal and external analysis because of its close
relationship with the current day-to-day operations of a business. Every business
needs funds for two purposes.
* Long term funds are required to create production facilities through purchase of
fixed assets such as plants, machineries, lands, buildings & etc
* Short term funds are required for the purchase of raw materials, payment of
wages, and other day-to-day expenses.

8/8/2019 final 11111111

. It is other wise known as revolving or circulating capital
It is nothing but the difference between current assets and current liabilities. i.e.
Working Capital = Current Asset Current Liability.
Businesses use capital for construction, renovation, furniture, software, equipment,
or machinery. It is also commonly used to purchase inventory, or to make payroll.
Capital is also used often by businesses to put a down payment down on a piece of
commercial real estate. Working capital is essential for any business to succeed. It
is becoming increasingly important to have access to more working capital when
we need it.

FACTORS DETERMINING WORKING CAPITAL
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
36/94
REQUIREMENTS:-
With the type of business and the ambition of proprietors the amount is
bound to vary. For instance, a small business would need lesser amount
of working capital than a larger business engaged in the same line. As
the business expands the amount needed would grow. Similarly,
business with seasonal demand would require larger amount of working
capital. Therefore, an estimate of requirements of working capital will
differ from concern and from industry to industry. Further, cyclical
changes, periods of prosperity and depression cause wide variations in
the demand for working capital. Other unexpected happenings are likely
to create unusual demands for working capital.
There is no concrete formula to decide the amount of workings capital
required by a business. There are also business in which fixed is small
ion relation to working capital.
The Major determinants of the proportion of fixed to working capital are
as follows:-
1.Nature of Business:-
Business units selling service (like public utilities) instead of a
commodity, have little need for working capital, as they have little
demand for large inventories. Generally they operate in cash and prepay
basis. But trading concerns (merchandising companies) make a greater
use of working capital, since inventory represents a major item of
investment. A relatively small proportion will consist of working capital
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
37/94
in case of manufacturing concerns. Larger working capital will require in
labor intensive industries than in highly mechanized industries. In
chemical or engineering industries, working capital would be relatively
larger.
1)Size of Business :
The working capital requirements of a concern are directly influenced by
the size of the business which may be measured in terms of scale of
operations. Greater the size of a business unit generally larger will be the
requirement of working capital. However, in some cases even a smallerconcern may need more working capital due to high overhead charges
Insufficient use of available resources and other economic disadvantages
of small size.
Production Policy:-
In certain industries the demand is subject to wide fluctuation due to
seasonal variation. The requirement of working capital, in such cases
depends upon the production policy. The production could be kept either
steady by accumulating inventories during slack period with a view to
meet high demand during the peak season or the production could be
curtailed during the slack season and increased during peak season. If the
policy is to keep production steady by accumulation inventories it willrequire higher working capital. A company should have some production
policy i.e. to maintain the production is a considerable range in order to
meet the changing demand. A company like RIL whose productive
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
38/94
capacities can be utilized for manufacturing varied products can have the
advantages of diversified activities and solve their working capital
problem.
2) Manufacturing Process/ Length of the production cycle:-
In manufacturing business, the requirements of working capital increase
in direct proportion to length of manufacturing process, longer the
process period of manufacture, longer is the amount of working capital
required. The longer the manufacturing time, the raw materials and other
supplies have to be carried for a longer period in the process with progressive increment of labor and service costs before the finished
product is finally obtained. Therefore, if there is alternative process of
production, the process with the shortest production period should be
chosen.
3) Working Capital Cycle:-
In manufacturing concern, working capital cycle starts with the purchase
of raw materials and ends with realization of cash from the sale of
finished goods. The cycle involves the purchase of raw materials and
ends with the realization of cash from the sale of finished products. The
cycle involves purchase of raw materials and stores, its conversion in to
stock of finished goods through work in progress with progressiveincrement of labor and service cost, conversion of finished stick in to
sales and receivables and ultimately realization of cash and this cycle
continuous again from cash to purchase of raw materials and so on.
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
39/94
4) Market Condition:-
The degree of competition prevailing in the market places has an
important bearing on working capital needs. When competition keen, a
larger inventory of finished goods is required to promptly serve customer
who may not be inclined to wait because other manufacturers are ready to
meet their needs, further, generous credit terms may have to be offered to
attract customers in a highly competitive market. Thus, working capital
needs tends to be high because of greater investment in finished goods
inventory and accounts receivable.If the market is strong and completion weeks a firm can manage with a
smaller inventory of finished goods because customers can be served
with some delay. Further in such situation the firm can insist
on cash payment and avoid lock up of funds in accounts receivable, it
can even ask for advance payment, partial or total.
5) Credit Policy:-
The credit policy is concerned in its dealings with debtors and creditors
influence considerably the requirements of the working capital. A
concern that purchases its requirements on credit and sells its
products/services on cash requires lesser amount of working capital. On
the other hand a concern buying its requirements for cash and allowingcredit to its customers, shall need larger amount of funds are bound to be
tied up in debtors or bills receivables.
6) Business Cycle:-
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
40/94
Business Cycle refers to alternate expansion and contraction in general
business activities. In a period of born i.e. when the business is
prosperous there is a need for larger amount of working capital due to
increase in sales, rise in prices, optimistic expansion of business etc. On
the country at he time of depression i.e. when there is a down swing of
the cycle, business contracts, sales decline, difficulties are faced in
collections from debtors and firms may have a large amount of working
capital lying ideal
7) Rate of Growth Of business:-
The working capital requirements of a concern increase with the growth
and expansion of its business activities. Although it is difficult to
determine the relation between growth in the volume of the business and
in the growth of the working capital of the business, yet it may be
concluded that for normal rate of expansion in the volume of the
business, we may have retained profits to provide for more working
capital but in the first growing concerns, we shall require larger amount
of capital.
8) Earning Capacity And Dividend policy:-
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
41/94
Some firms have more earning capacity than others due to
the quality of their products, monopoly conditions etc. Such firms with
high earning capacity may generate cash profits from operations and
contribute to their capital. The dividend policy of a concern also
influences the requirements of the working capital. A firm that maintains
steady high rate of cash dividend irrespective of its generation of profits
needs more capital than the firm retains larger part of its profits and does
not pay high rate of cash dividend.
9) Price Level Changes:-
Changes in the prices level also effects the working capital requirements.
Generally the rising prices will require the firm to maintain larger amount
of working capital as more funds will require maintaining the same
current assets. The effect of rising prices may be different for different
firms. Some firms may be affected much while some other may not be
affected at all by the rise in prices.
10) Other Factors:-
Certain other factors such as operating efficiency, management ability,
irregularities a supply, import policy, asset structure, importance of labor,
banking facilities etc. also influences the requirement of working capital.
Working capital In terms of five components:
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
42/94
1. Cash and equivalents: - This most liquid form of working capital requires
constant supervision. A good cash budgeting and forecasting system provides
answers to key questions such as: Is the cash level adequate to meet current
expenses as they come due? What is the timing relationship between cash inflow
and outflow? When will peak cash needs occur? When and how much bank
borrowing will be needed to meet any cash shortfalls? When will repayment be
expected and will the cash flow cover it?
2. Accounts receivable: - Many businesses extend credit to their customers. If you
do, is the amount of accounts receivable reasonable relative to sales? How rapidly
are receivables being collected? Which customers are slow to pay and what should
be done about them?
3. Inventory: - Inventory is often as much as 50 percent of a firm's current assets,
so naturally it requires continual scrutiny. Is the inventory level reasonable
compared with sales and the nature of
your business? What's the rate of inventory turnover compared with other
companies in your type of business?
4. Accounts payable:- Financing by suppliers is common in small business; it is
one of the major sources of funds for entrepreneurs. Is the amount of money owed
suppliers reasonable relative to what you purchase? What is your firm's payment
policy doing to enhance or detract from your credit rating?
5. Accrued expenses and taxes payable: - These are obligations of your company
at any given time and represent a future outflow of cash.

Two different concepts of working capital are:-
Balance sheet or Traditional concept
Operating cycle concept.
Balance sheet or Traditional concept:- It shows the position of the firm at certain
point of time. It is calculated in the basis of balance sheet prepared at a specific date.
In this method there are two type of working capital:-
Gross working capital
Net working capital
Gross working capital:- It refers to the firms investment in current assets. The sum
of the current assets is the working capital of the business. The sum of the current
assets is a quantitative aspect of working capital. Which emphasizes more on quantity
than its quality, but it fails to reveal the true financial position of the firm because
every increase in current liabilities will decrease the gross working capital.
Net working capital:- It is the difference between current assets and current liabilities
or the excess of total current assets over total current liabilities
Working capital= current assets - current liabilities.
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
44/94
Net working capital: - It is also can defined as that part of a firms current assets
which is financed with long term funds. It may be either positive or negative. When
the current assets exceed the current liability, the working capital is positive and vice
versa.
Operating cycle concept:- The duration or time required to complete the sequence
of events right from purchase of raw material for cash to the realization of sales in
cash is called the operating cycle or working capital cycle.

Estimate of working capital requirements: To avoid the storage of working capital at once an estimate of workingcapital requirements should be made in advances so that arrangementcan be made to procedure adequate working capital. But estimation ofworking capital requirements is not an easy task and a large number offactors have to be considered before starting this exercise.
Factors requiring consideration while estimating working capital:-
Total costs incurred on materials, wages and overheads.
1) The length of time for which raw materials are to remain in stores
before they are issued for production.
2) The length of the production cycle or work in progress, i.e. the time
taken for conversion of raw materials into finished goods.
3) The length of sales cycle during which finished goods are kept
waiting for sales.
4) The average period of credit allowed to customers.
5) The amount of cash required to pay day-to-day expenses of the
business.
6) The average amount of cash required to make advance payment.
7) The average period expected to be allowed by suppliers.
8) Time lag in the payment of wages and other expenses.

Importance of Working Capital Ratios
Ratio analysis can be used by financial executives to check upon the efficiency
with which working capital is being used in the enterprise. The following are the
important ratios to measure the efficiency of working capital. The following, easily
calculated, ratios are important measures of working capital utilization.
Ratio Formulae Result Interpretation
Stock
Turnover
(in days)
Average Stock
* 365/
Cost of Goods
Sold
= x days On average, you turn over the value of your
entire stock every x days. You may need to
break this down into product groups for
effective stock management.
Obsolete stock, slow moving lines will
extend overall stock turnover days. Faster
production, fewer product lines, just in time
ordering will reduce average days.
Receivables
Ratio
(in days)
Debtors * 365/

= x days It takes you on average x days to collect
monies due to you. If your official credit
terms are 45 day and it takes you 65 days.
One or more large or slow debts can drag out
the average days. Effective debtor
management will minimize the days.
Payables

Current Assets are assets that you can readily

in the course of business. Current Liabilities
are amount you are due to pay within the
coming 12 months. For example, 1.5 times
means that you should be able to lay your
hands on $1.50 for every $1.00 you owe.
Less than 1 times e.g. 0.75 means that you
could have liquidity problems and be under
pressure to generate sufficient cash to meet
oncoming demands.

DISADVANTAGES OF INADEQUATE WORKING CAPITAL
Every business needs some amounts of working capital. The need for working
capital arises due to the time gap between production and realization of cash from
sales. There is an operating cycle involved in sales and realization of cash. There
are time gaps in purchase of raw material and production; production and sales;
and realization of cash.
Thus working capital is needed for the following purposes:
For the purpose of raw material, components and spares.
To pay wages and salaries
To incur day-to-day expenses and overload costs such as office
expenses.
To meet the selling costs as packing, advertising, etc.
To provide credit facilities to the customer.
To maintain the inventories of the raw material, work-in-progress, stores
and spares and finished stock.
For studying the need of working capital in a business, one has to study the
business under varying circumstances such as a new concern requires a lot of
funds to meet its initial requirements such as promotion and formation etc.
These expenses are called preliminary expenses and are capitalized. The
amount needed for working capital depends upon the size of the company and
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
55/94
ambitions of its promoters. Greater the size of the business unit, generally larger
will be the requirements of the working capital.
The requirement of the working capital goes on increasing with the growth and
expensing of the business till it gains maturity. At maturity the amount of
working capital required is called normal working capital.

MANAGEMENT OF INVENTORY
MANAGEMENT OF CASH
MANAGEMENT OF RECEIVABLES
MANAGEMENT OF INVENTORY:-
Inventories constitute the most significant part of current assets of a largemajority of companies in India. On an average, inventories are approximately 60 %
of current assets in public limited companies in India.
Because of the large size of inventories maintained by firms maintained by firms, a
considerable amount of funds is required to be committed to them. It is, therefore
very necessary to manage inventories efficiently and effectively in order to avoid
unnecessary investments. A firm neglecting a firm the management of inventories
will be jeopardizing its long run profitability and may fail ultimately.
The purpose of inventory management is to ensure availability of materials in
sufficient quantity as and when required and also to minimize investment in
inventories at considerable degrees, without any adverse effect on production and
sales, by using simple inventory planning and control techniques.
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
59/94
Need to Hold Inventories:-
There are three general motives for holding inventories:-
1) Transaction motive emphasizes the need to maintain inventories
to facilitate smooth production and sales operation.
2) Precautionary motive necessities holding of inventories to guard against the
risk of unpredictable changes in demand and supply forces and other factors.
3) Speculative motive influences the decision to increases or reduce inventory
levels to take advantage of price fluctuations and also for saving in re-ordering
costs and quantity discounts etc.
Objective of Inventory Management:-
The main objectives of inventory management are operational and financial. The
operational mean that means that the materials and spares
Should be available in sufficient quantity so that work is not disrupted for want of
inventory. The financial objective means that investments in inventories should not
remain ideal and minimum working capital
Should be locked in it. The following are the objectives of inventory management:-
1) To ensure continuous supply of materials, spares and finished goods.
2) To avoid both over-stocking of inventory.
3) To maintain investments in inventories at the optimum level as required by
the operational and sale activities.
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111

4) To keep material cost under control so that they contribute in reducing cost of
production and overall purchases.
5) To eliminate duplication in ordering or replenishing stocks. This is possible with
the help of centralizing purchases.
6)To minimize losses through deterioration, pilferage, wastages and damages.
7)To design proper organization for inventory control so that management. Clear
cut account ability should be fixed at various levels of the organization.
8)To ensure perpetual inventory control so that materials shown in stock ledgers
should be actually lying in the stores.
9)To ensure right quality of goods at reasonable prices.
10) To facilitate furnishing of data for short-term and long term planning and
control of inventory

MANAGEMENT OF CASH:-
Cash is the important current asset for the operation of the business.
Cash is the basic input needed to keep the business running in the continuous basis,
it is also the ultimate output expected to be realized by selling or product
manufactured by the firm.
The firm should keep sufficient cash neither more nor less. Cash shortage will
disrupt the firms manufacturing operations while excessive cash will simply
remain ideal without contributing anything towards the firms profitability. Thus a
major function of the financial manager is to maintain a sound cash position.
Cash is the money, which a firm can disburse immediately without any restriction.
The term cash includes coins, currency and cheques held by the firm and balances
in its bank account. Sometimes near cash items such as marketing securities or
bank term deposits are also included in cash. Generally when a firm has excess
cash, it invests it is marketable securities. This kind of investment contributes some
profit to the firm.
-
8/8/2019 final 11111111
62/94
NEEDTO HOLD CASH:
The firms need to hold cash may be attributed to the following three motives:-The Transaction Motive: The transaction motive requires a firm to hold cash to
conduct its business in the ordinary course. The firm needs cash primarily to make
payments for purchases, wages and salaries, other operating expenses, taxes,
dividends, etc.
The Precautionary Motive: A firm is required to keep cash for meeting various
contingencies. Though cash inflows and outflows are anticipated but there may be
variations in these estimates. For example a debtor who pays after 7 days may
inform of his inability to pay, on the other hand a supplier who used to give credit
for 15 days may not have the stock to supply or he may not be in opposition to give
credit at present.
Speculative Motive: - The speculative motive relates to the holding of cash for
investing in profit making opportunities as and when they arise.
The opportunities to make profit changes. The firm will hold cash, when it is
expected that interest rates will rise and security price will fall.

when sales increase and if sales increases it is good sign for growth. We can see
there is a 1.532% increase in debtors from previous years.

We can say that it is a good sign as well as negative also. Company policy of
debtors is very good but a risk of bad debts is always present in high debtors.
when sales is increasing with a great speed the profit also increases. If company
decreases the Debtors they can use the money in many investment plans.
