Financial Accounting

An accountant has to account for what happens to the company’s money. So, financial accounting, if we want a definition, is concerned with recording events as they happen or have recently happened.

Accounting is often said to be the language of business. It is used in the business world to describe the transactions entered into by all kinds of organizations. Accounting terms and ideas are therefore used

by people associated with business, whether they are managers, owners, investors, bankers, lawyers, or accountants. The actual record-making phase of accounting is usually called book-keeping. However, accounting extends far beyond actual making of records. Accounting is concerned with the use to which these records are put, their analysis and interpretation. An accountant should be concerned with more than the record-making phase. In particular, he should be interested in the relationship between the financial results and the events which have created them. He should be studying the various alternatives open to the business, and be using his accounting experience in order to aid the management to select the best

plan of action for the business. Probably there are two main questions that the managers or owners of the business want to know: first, whether or not the business is operating at a profit, second, they will want to know whetheror not the business will be able to meet its commitments as they fall due; and so not have to close down owing to lack of funds. Both of these questions should be answered by the use of the accounting data of the firm.

Financial Management

In the past, financial management was not a major concern for a business. A company used to establish relations with a local bank. The bank handled the financing and the company took care of producing

and selling. Today only a few firms operate in this way. Usually businesses have their own financial managers who work with the banks. They negotiate terms of financial transactions, compare rates among competing financial institutions. Financial management begins with the creation of a financial plan. The plan includes timing and amount of funds and the inflow and outflow of money.

The financial manager develops and controls the financial plan. He also forecasts the economic conditions, the company's revenues, expenses and profits. The financial manager’s job starts and ends with the company's objectives. He reviews them and determines the funding they require.

The financial manager compares the expenses involved to the expected revenues. It helps him to predict cash flow. The financial manager plans a strategy to make the ending cash positive. If cash outflow exceeds cash inflow the company will run out of cash. The solution is to reduce outflows. The financial manager can trim expenses or ask the customers to pay faster. The financial manager also chooses financing techniques. One of them is short term financing. Another is long term financing.
