"Any business manager or owner that wishes to succeed and manage their company towards success must know and apply sound financial management and maintain awareness of how any and all of their decisions impact profitability on an ongoing basis. No matter how well a company provides service, manufactures a product, no matter how content its employees or how well their enterprise systems work, an effective manager must be aware that the purpose of any business is to make a significant profit. (Lycos Network, 2000). As is said in Finance 301, the reason we are here is to maximize the value of the stock."
