Finance Basics for Entrepreneurs

This document provides an overview of business finance topics including sources of short-term and long-term funds, debt versus equity financing, assessing loans, credit ratings, improving credit scores, and signs of debt problems. Short-term funds come from suppliers, stockholders, and banks, and are used for working capital. Long-term funds come from equity investors, bonds, retained earnings, and banks, and are used for capital expenditures, business expansion, and debt repayment. Debt financing involves borrowing with interest, while equity financing involves selling ownership shares. Factors like revenues, profits, collateral, and credit history affect a business's ability to obtain loans and their credit ratings.

➢ A type of loan that requires the borrower
to make scheduled, periodic payments
that are applied to both the principal and

the interest expense for the period; any

reducing the principal amount.
➢ As the interest portion of the payments
for an amortization loan decreases, the
principal portion increases.
