term liabilities have been paid off. It is a measure of a company’s short-term liquidity
and is important for performing financial analysis, financial modeling, and
managing cash flow.

Working capital is the amount of cash and other current assets a business has
available after all list current liabilities are accounted for. Understanding how
much working capital you have on hand to pay bills as they come due is critical to
the success of an organization.
Capital budgeting

The capital budgeting process discloses the viability of investment proposals


and helps invest in profitable projects. The goal is to maximize the growth
and profitability of the business. As part of capital budgeting, financial
analysts go over various investment alternatives. They conduct a comparative
analysis of investments’ present and future value to interpret their risk-return
aspects concerning organizational goals. Only the most suitable projects are
given a chance.

Capital Structure

The capital structure tells us the method of financing used by the entity. The
capital structure, for example, might include equity, retained earnings, and
debts. In the perspective of investors, a combination of too much debt or
equity is unappealing. They want a well-balanced combination of debt and
equity funding instead. Consequently, the proper financial decision produces
an optimum mix of various types of funding and enhances the company’s
value.

Working Capital

Working capital refers to the capital for day-to-day business operations.


Efficient financial management can ensure an adequate cash flow in line with
business policies. In this way, maintaining the liquidity of the organization can
save them from going bankrupt.

Dividend Distribution

Public companies hold answerability to their shareholders. As a result, they


often wonder how much of the business profit they should distribute as
dividends. If they re-invest surplus as retained earnings, it must be backed
with a strong conviction that the sum will generate business growth. At the
same time, a certain amount of dividend distribution is also essential for many
companies to serve their shareholders better.
