Three phases of business
Three broad phases in the evolution of a
firm
- Domestic phase : operations are confined
within the boundaries of one country
- International trade phase : the firm imports
materials or export its product or both
- Multinational phase : the firm establishes
operations overseas

finance
This course is concerned with multinational
corporations (MNCs)
It takes the perspective of a financial manager
in a multinational corporation
It develops framework for evaluating the
opportunities, costs, and risks of operating in
the world’s markets for goods, services, and
financial assets

Theoretical support for multinational
operations
Theory of comparative advantage: a country
should produce and export goods if it can
produce with relative efficiency and import
goods from other nations which can produce
more efficiently.
For example:
-- Australia: mining and agricultural industries
-- India: IT industry
-- Japan/Germany: manufacturing
-- Saudi Arabia: oil-based industries

How do MNCs enter foreign markets?
Four methods
--Licensing: gives local firms right to manufacture their
products in exchange for fees
--Franchising: provides specialized sales or service strategies
in exchange for fees. e.g. McDonald
--Joint venture: jointly invest and operate a business with a
foreign company.
--Foreign direct investment: starts a company from scratch

Balance of payments
The balance of payment (BOP)
- records all economic transactions between the residents of the home country and residents of all other countries
E.g. According to Australian Bureau of Statistics, the Australian BOP is a systematic record of economic transaction between residents of Australia and residents of the rest of the world.
- measures all financial and economic transactions over a specified period of time.

Regular capital account measures transactions on assets except gold and currencies

Double-entry accounting system
Each transaction gives rise to a credit (inflows) and a debit (outflows), both of equal value
An important Balance of Payments identity:
•Current Account + Capital Account = 0
