CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the study:
Capital plays an important role in the firm. Every firm, whether big, medium or small,
needs capital to carry on its operations smoothly and to achieve its goal. No firms can be
operated without capital. As human beings needs blood, firm needs capital. It is possible
to finance a firm entirely with common equity. However most firms raise a substantial
portion of their capital as debt, and many also use preferred stock.
The capital structure is how a firm finances its overall operations and growth by using
different sources of funds. Capital structure is a mix of a company’s long-term debt,
specific short-term debt, common equity and preferred equity. Debt comes in the form of
bond issues or long-term notes payable, while equity is classified as common stock,
preferred stock or retained earnings. Short-term debt also known as current liabilities is
also considered to be a part of the capital structure. When people refer to capital structure
they are most likely referring to a firm’s debt-to equity ratio, which provides insight into
how risky a company is. Usually a company more heavily financed by debt poses greater
risk, as this firm is relatively highly levered.
Capital structure refers to the amount of debt and/or equity employed by a firm to fund its
operation and finance its assets. The structure is typically expressed as a debt-to-equity or
debt-to-capital ratio. Debt and equity capital are used to fund a business’s operations,
capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other investments. There are tradeoffs firms have
to make when they decide whether to raise debt or equity and managers will balance the
two try and find the optimal capital structure. The optimal capital structure of a firm is
often defined as the proportion of debt and equity that result in the lowest weighted
average cost of capital (WACC) for the firm. This technical definition is not always used
in practice, and firms often have a strategic or philosophical view of what the structure
should be. In order to optimize the structure, a firm will decide if it needs more debt or
equity and can issue whichever it requires. The new capital that’s issued may be used to
invest in new assets or may be used to repurchase debt/equity that’s currently outstanding
as a form or recapitalization.
