The Goals and Functions of Financial Management are critical to a firm’s success, and we rely heavily on a good understanding of economics and accounting to explain the concepts of finance. The overriding goals of financial management are shareholders’ wealth maximization and return on investment, which often translated into rewarding Executive Salaries for delivering wealth maximization. The scope is affected by the forms of organization – sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation. Tools for accomplishing these goals involve the Pricing Mechanism of Financial Markets: Allocation of capital, Reliance on debt, Interest rates, and the major Internationalization of financial markets discussed in Economics.
