Money and Value
In economics, money illusion refers to the tendency of people to think of currency in
nominal, rather than real, terms. In other words, the numerical/face value (nominal value) of
money is mistaken for its purchasing power (real value). This is false, as modern fiat
currencies have no inherent value and their real value is derived from their ability to be
exchanged for goods and used for payment of taxes. The term was coined by John
Maynard Keynes in the early twentieth century. Almost everyone is subject to the "Money
Illusion" in respect to his own country's currency. This seems to him to be stationary while
the money of other countries seems to change. It may seem strange but it is true that we
see the rise or fall of foreign money better than we see that of our own.

Intro to Financial Management

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Company’s number alone don’t mean much in a competitive environment. Looking at how competition is doing and allowing us to compare the performance of our business with the performance of other similar businesses is often the best way to discover opportunities. But the problem arises when those numbers are wrong or just not usable. For example, measuring revenue without having correct information about the underlying costs may lead to situations in which one part of the company is undermining the efforts of another part. Problems appear as well when the numbers are just not usable to make decisions. For example, measuring the output of a factory in Tons when probably measuring it by produced units would be more intelligent. Or when the production of a given service adds additional financial risks that may get the company our of business One of the most typical problems we observe in finance is the stickiness to legacy issue: “It has always been done this way” . Think that in a changing environment past performance is usually the worst indicator of future performance.
  2. We will devote a big part of the course to risk management. Not all risks are managed in the same way, not even all of them are managed by the same function within a corporate. We will take some examples, those that are typically managed by Finance, and we will learn how it is done. I will give you practical examples on how risk limits are set and how they are monitored. We will talk about how risks can be hedged and what are the responsibilities of Finance in that regards. We will discuss a little bit about treasury functions, one of the most relevant day to day functions within finance. All this will be extended in sessions 3 and 4 It is important that we understand what Liquidity Risk, Market Risk, Credit Risk and Funding risk is, as some of the typical risks that are monitored and managed by the Finance function. An important part of this is to understand expected return, as a function of risk R = ( riskfree + some additional risk linked to the investment )
  3. Capital is probably the most scarce resource in a corporate Understanding the cost of capital and be able to compare it to alternatives gives a framework for capital management decisions During 5 to 8 we will look at some of this principles and it will converge in capital budgeting matters that we will examine in the financial planning sessions
  4. Financial planning is the foundation for the intereaction between the business and the finance function. Challenging forecasts, monitoring budget execution, challeging investing decisions and explaning the numbers is a critical part of the finance function and the reason why it is responsible to produce the numbers for the organization
