1) Why are capital budgeting decisions crucial for a business?

(5)
The reasons are as follows: As these decisions deal with purchase of fixed assets they have long term
implications on the operations of the business. Such decisions usually involve outlay of a large amount of
the funds. These decisions are irreversible as it is difficult to find a market for capital goods in case they
have been mistakenly purchased. Such decisions carry much risk as the payback period is several years.
2) What are the objectives of cash management?
(5)
The main objective of cash management is to reduce the operating cash need to the minimum possible
extent without affecting routine transactions. To enable this, the finance manager has to: Increase the
speed of cash collections Negotiate delayed cash payments Maintain optimum cash balance Profitably
invest excess cash available in short and long term securities
3) How does age-wise analysis of debtors help in speeding up collections?
(5)
Age-wise analysis of debtors is a practical tool to analyze debtors. In this analysis, every month say the

as less than 30 days, more than 60 days, more than 90 days, etc. Those more than 90 days will be followed
