Sources Of Finance

Muhtasari

Every commercial enterprise, from a market stall to a multinational retailer, needs money before it can trade. Whether the goal is buying initial stock, covering day-to-day expenses, or funding a major expansion, the source of that money shapes what the business can do and how much risk it carries.

In this lesson you will explore the full range of internal and external finance options, learn how to classify them by time horizon, and evaluate which source suits a given commercial situation. These are core skills tested across both Commerce papers.

Maelezo ya Somo

Imagine you have found a supplier offering high-quality goods at a competitive price, but the minimum order is 500 units and payment is due in 14 days. You have the customers lined up, yet you do not have the cash right now. Where the money comes from, how much it costs, and how quickly you can access it will determine whether your commercial opportunity turns into a real transaction or slips away.
