The purpose of finance
“Different sources of finance have different implications for a business, so it is important that the most appropriate method of finance is chosen for the purpose that the business has in mind”
![Page 8: Use of Finance- RRP](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050800/577cc7581a28aba711a0a77c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

MEDIUM TERM
3 – 10 YEARS
LONG TERM
OVER 10 YEARS
SHORT TERM
UP TO 3 YEARS
![Page 12: Use of Finance- RRP](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050800/577cc7581a28aba711a0a77c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Short-term Finance
Short-term Finance is needed for the day-to-day running of a business and is usually for a period of up to 3 years
In order to understand short-term finance it is necessary to understand the concept of CASH FLOW
![Page 13: Use of Finance- RRP](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050800/577cc7581a28aba711a0a77c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cash Flow
CASH FLOW – A business needs sufficient inflows of cash to finance its day-to-day outgoings.
BUSINESS
INFLOWS refers to money received by the business
EXAMPLES:•Sales revenue
•Capital
•Loans
•Grants
OUTFLOWS refers to money paid out by the business
EXAMPLES:•Purchases
•Rent & Rates
•Wages & Salaries
![Page 14: Use of Finance- RRP](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050800/577cc7581a28aba711a0a77c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Why is Cash Flow Important?Think of a business as a bath without a plug…
If the bath is ever empty the business is in TROUBLE – it has a CASH FLOW PROBLEM.
There should always be cash available – so the bath is never empty!
If this is not the case the business needs short-term finance to overcome this problem!
![Page 15: Use of Finance- RRP](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050800/577cc7581a28aba711a0a77c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

recover any amount outstanding on the loan.
