Why Finance?

Return on owners equity & return on equity may mean the same the thing when it comes to a corporation, i.e., it measures the efficiency at which the profit(in this case Net income after Tax) is being generated per unit of owner's contribution to the company.

Return on Investment is a very broad term as it measures the efficiency at which the profit is being generated per unit of "Investment". Investment can include debt+equity/debt.

Hope it clarifies...

please explain with help of practical example

Hi
if company A has equity capital- 2 lacs
company B- equity capital- 50,000, reserves - 1,50,000

Which company market value is higher 😉

Correct. For all practical purposes, both are absolutely same.

...technical definitions of "owner" notwithstanding.

Market Value can be stated as company's Market capitalization (mkt value of outstanding shares) plus debt in the books.

Hope that answers your question

For Australia's banking system read this http://www.moodys.com/research/Moodys-Australian-banking-system-stable-but-challenges-apparent--PR_232228

@[241172:harry4u9] and NZ ?

NZ hasnt been unscathed but ya the effect on them hasnt been much....will get back on this but generally the stability of banking system is a function of strength of fiscal & monetary policies in the country

Harry in this case there is no debt. Then which co market value is higher ?


@iwantgovtjob said: Harry in this case there is no debt. Then which co market value is higher ?
Exactly so the company with more equity shares outstanding will have a higher mkt value

Harry i was wondering that when we calculate WACC( market weight)
Then we calculate total market value = no of shares * share value
But then we divide it into equity and reserves in proportionate terms.

So does that means if total equity = 20,000 and reserves = 1,80,000
and second case equity capital= 2,00,000 market value is same ?

puys i wanted to know whether these financial modeling and advance excel courses are helpful or not? i am an MBA Finance fresher pursuing ICFAI CFA so if i go for such a course in excel will it help in getting a good job in terms of profile? there is an institute in delhi INVESTMENT BANKING INSTITUTE that provides such courses. so should i go for it? suggestions please?

@[582498:iwantgovtjob] WACC is the rate used to find out the average cost of raising new capital((w1Ke+w2Kd)/w1+w2) whereas mkt value is no of equity shares* mkt price....i dont seem to get ur question...pls elaborate? :lookaround:

Harry but when we calculate WACC by Market weight method will use market value method . This case i am asking

@[582498:iwantgovtjob] ya but still the company with more equity shares in the market will have more value

What is the criteria for a company to be acquired? Which state brings the board to decide saying that 'thats it.. lets sell it'?

@harry4u9 said: @iwantgovtjob ya but still the company with more equity shares in the market will have more value
ok so value= No of shares * market value. Then it will be distributed between equity capital and reserves
