Finance in Everyday Life
Finance - can be defined as
the science and art of
managing money (Gitman &
Zutter, 2012).
Budgeting is the act of estimating
revenue (in the form of their allowance)
and expenses over a period of time (in
this case, on a daily basis).
Investments come in many
forms that will generate
income or appreciate in the
future.
Sources of funds - people
or institutions that will give
us the money we need.
For individuals, Finance is concerned with
decisions about:
*How much of their earnings they spend
*How much they save or how much they need
*How they invest their savings
*How they raise additional funds they need
(Gitman).

Corporations may either be
privately owned or publicly owned.
Privately owned corporations are
often owned by family members
whose stocks may not be offered to
outsiders unless consent by the family
members is secured.
Companies which are publicly listed are
owned by unrelated investors and are
traded in organized exchanges like the
Philippine Stock Exchange. While there are
many stockholders, there is generally a
group of investors or a family which
controls each listed company.
For example, in the case of BPI, the biggest
stockholder is Ayala Corporation and in the
case of Banco De Oro, it is SM Investment
Corporation. Prices of stocks of listed
corporations are driven by several factors
such as the earnings of the companies, the
prospects of the industry where these
companies operate, the general market
sentiment, and the economic prospects of
the country, among others.
