are follows:

expansion or diversification of activities

finance was to lay more emphasis on the
guidance of the investors rather than the
internal management of enterprise

effective utilisation of funds into productive use

considered

should be compared, the funds raise should b able to
give more returns then the cost involved in procuring
them

term financing .

aspects of finance was more of a descriptive nature
rather than analytical
