We expected to have a lower interest margin than the previous period because we were taking a high risk by lowering interest rates for due to customers. In the current economy situation, the situation is somewhat increasing, but there is a strong demand for capital. In Al Fahim Bank, we are focusing on decreasing the banks excess liquidity.

Bond loans were decreased by 500 million SFr. As well as bond loads of which subordinated were also decreased by 580 million SFr. Thus, the bank has no subordinated bond loans. In order to increase the Al Fahim bank balance sheet, we decided to increase our budgeted values balance total by 8.5 billion SFr and decrease the budgeted values net profit by 20 million SFr.

In the financial decision, probably not paying enough dividends was our biggest issue in term of finance. We were not able to find the balance between investing in the growth of the company and providing fair dividend to our stakeholders.

Legally a minor cannot own any stock without parental supervision. But as far as what I think is the right time for someone to invest all depends on the person. Obviously if our country goes into another Great Depression then you should take all your money out that you can. As long as the person's mature enough to be gambling with money, is okay to lose the money they put in, and is mostly debt free then they should invest, in stocks that is. A lot of people have the misconception that buying stocks is all about timing. Which this is true if your wanting to earn some cash quickly, but as long you've done your research on a company staying for the long haul is the way to go. Over a long period of time the compound return on a smart investment will add up nicely.
A credit card is like a double-edged knife. Would be nice if we are wise to use it, otherwise, would be evil if used to go into debt in order to fulfill our wishes. Then what should be done so that we can immediately pay off the debt? Here is an example of a simulation of the repayment of a credit card. I hope this simulation can be useful to you. For example, suppose you earn around $ 4,000 per month and have 2 credit cards. You owe to the first credit card for $ 800 with interest of 3.75% per month and to the second credit card for $ 500 with 4% interest.
Although the company’s liquidity ratios have dropped their ratios are still outperforming their RMA industry average by 15%. The decrease in the company’s liquidity ratios is the result of their current liabilities increasing 6.5% from fiscal year 2014 and their current assets only increasing 0.7% from fiscal year 2014. The company saw a decrease in cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, and income tax receivable in 2015. While also increasing accounts payable, accrued expenses, and deferred revenue and other liabilities. The combination of the movement in these accounts result in lower liquidity ratios for fiscal year 2015.

Therefore, Jamba’s reduction in cash is not as alarming as it may appear. Many companies during their growth stage must sacrifice cash in order to grow their company by increasing their number of stores. What is concerning is that in 2008, both Jamba’s cash and property, plant, and equipment dropped somewhat drastically. In most healthy companies if one of those figures drops the other increases, assuming the company has not bought treasury stocks. Often times, when both drop it means the company liquidated property, plant, and equipment in order to cover current liabilities. After not being able to find additional information concerning the drop in Jamba Juice’s 10-K, Jamba’s liquidity risk is more alarming. Assuming that Jamba’s management is aware of their liquidity and have learned from their unsuccessful growth strategies, liquidity risk is not of great concern. But given Jamba’s history of managerial decision making concerning growth and the recent trend of decreasing cash levels Jamba’s liquidity risk is

From the 2001 projections, the company`s sales revenues reached the 90.9 million mark in 2001 representing a 15 million rupees growth over the previous year. Despite this remarkable increase, there are a number of financial challenges that must be taken into account when evaluating the forecast.
