Answer Posted / h.r. sreepada bhagi

LIFO(Last in First Out)-This is a method of valuation of
stock (Inventory), where in the latest price of goods
purchased is applied for valuing the inventory at any time.
This is applied only for valuation & not for use of
materials/goods for sale or consumption, as it is always on
FIFO, i.e. stock first received will be sold or consumed
first. There are other method of stock valuations as well -
FIFO9First in First Out), Average Price & Weighted Average
Price.

Funds Flow refers to movement of funds (Working Capital)
during a an accounting period (Month, Quarter, Half year or
year). This statement is prepared to know who the working is
utilised during the period and what is the position of funds
as at the close of that accounting period.

Cash Flow refers to movement of money (Receipts & payments)
during the specified accounting period. Cash-Flow Statement
helps in knowing opening position, receipts from various
sources, payments for various purposes and closing position
of cash & bank balance.

Both Cash-Flow & Funds-Flow help in formulation company's
future course of action & ensure no cash-crunch situation as
also optimum utilisation of available financial resources.

Occasionally it is said that issuing convertible bonds is better than issuing stock when the firms shares are undervalued. Suppose that the financial manager of Decent Furniture Company does in fact have inside information indicating that the decent stock price is too low. Decent furniture earnings will in fact be higher than investor’s expectations. Suppose further that the inside information cannot be released without giving away a valuable competitive secret. Clearly, selling shares at the present low price would harm Decent’s existing shareholders. Will they also lose if convertible bonds are issued? If they do lose in this case, is the loss more or less than it would be if common stock is issued? Now suppose that investors forecast earnings accurately, but still under value the stock because they overestimate Decent’s actual business risk. Does this change your answer to the questions posed in the preceding paragraph? Explain.
