2.0              IDENTIFICATION OF THE COMPANY’S FINANCING SOURCES FOR

THE YEARS 2012 AND 2013 FOR FARM’S BEST FOOD

To meet the requirements of the question, I must identify and analyze all sources of financing used by the company Farm's Best Food in business since 2012 and 2013. Companies use several types of funding sources to meet their requirements equity. For the company, it is to use the long-term funding sources of short, medium and long term financing. Therefore, the short-term funding is mainly used as a tool to finance accounts receivable and stockpiling.

Loans are borrowings that a corporation obtains from a bank. Most firms use bank loans as a major source of financing after trade credit. A short-term loan is a debt for which the repayments are scheduled. Short-term loans are often used to raise cash for cyclical inventory needs, accounts payable, and working capital. The loan can be divided into two basic categories. These are secured and unsecured loans. However for short-term financing are used by Farm's Best Food can be categories into two basic forms. It is known as spontaneous financing (accruals and accounts payable) and non-spontaneous (bank loans and commercial papers) and one more categories as an alternative sources of financing like factoring, accounts receivable financing, inventory financing and others.

2.1              Sources of Short-Term Financing

Spontaneous sources of funding come from the normal operations of the company, especially accruals and payables. Accruals are a form of short-term funding spontaneous. Accrued liabilities for services received for which payment has not been made yet. An account on the other is a form of financing generated credit purchases and represents the main source of unsecured short-term funding. For 2012 as a spontaneous regularization and accounts payable recorded RM275, 424 million compared to 2013, it increased to RM321, 187 million. Percentage increase is 16.6%. This type of financing is unsecured and does not require the pledge of specific assets as collateral. In addition, Farm's Best Food also has the financial resources of lending and borrowing from a bank.

Short term loans are used to raise funds for the needs of the cyclical inventory and working capital. Total loans and borrowings of the year 2012 decreased by RM43,064 million and unsecured loans of about 5.7% over 2012, totaling RM75,111 million amount. Bank loan is divided by two categories namely secured loans and unsecured loans. Secured loans for 2012 is RM32,000 million and RM43,111 unsecured loans million. 2013 Farm's Best Food consists only of unsecured loans. Example of the debt is in the form of loans where it is because Farm's Best Food still has the financial resources of the past and use the profits last year as working capital guaranteed. In addition, many needs were purchased in 2012. Thus, in the short-term debt framework in 2013 will be reduced. Employee benefits in 2013 decreased by 35.63% compared to 2012 was RM623,000. While tax liabilities in the year 2013 is RM12,159 million. Total short-term financial resources for 2012 and 2013 can be seen in the table below:

2.2       Intermediate-Term Financing

Intermediate-term financing is self-liquidating and is thus similar to short-term financing. However, the Intermediate-term financing can meet ongoing funding requirements. In addition, it can serve as a temporary substitute for long-term financing. The banks tend to grant long-term loans for the period of maturity 3-5 years, while insurance companies are willing to make longer-term loans. The most important use of medium-term financing to provide credit where expected cash flows for companies such as the debt may be to retreat steadily over a period of several years. For the company, the intermediate term loans are the use of facilities and equipment of the plant, especially when buying new machinery. This can be used to increase working capital when the cost of a public offering of bonds and stocks are high. However Farm's Best Food only use term loan sources. Term loans or known as a lending and borrowing for fiscal 2013 decreased by 40.7% that was recorded at RM11,590 million compared to 2012, which amounted to RM19,544 million.

Advantages of using term loans are the borrower can take a term loan in such a way that the economic life of the asset being financed generates enough cash flow surplus to service the loan without putting any additional financial burden on the borrower.

2.3       Long-Term Debt Financing

In addition, the company Farm's Best Food also use long-term debt funding. Long-term debt financing is the most popular form of external financing. Long term loans are debt instruments, which are arranged when the calendar loan repayments and estimated useful lives of such assets acquired building, land, machinery, equipment and shelves should exceed one year. Long term loans are normally secured, first by the new assets purchased and then by other unencumbered physical assets of the business. The lender will expect the borrower to have the appropriate insurance to protect assets. For Farm's Best Food, a list of funding sources that are under long-term loan in 2012 and 2013 can see as below:

The table can be seen on the total loan of 2012 and the loan is RM65,944 RM46,400 million, but only classified as long-term loan. This is due to RM19,544 million is based on the loan period and loan repayment is intermediate between 3 to 5 years. Similarly, for 2013, a loan only registered long term RM72,797 million of total RM84, 387 million. This is also due to RM11,590 million maturing in no more than 5 years. There was a long-term loan increase in 2013, about 56.89%.

Loan and mortgage loans are getting goods to the bank as the lender using a loan to buy a structure like to buy office building and finance home purchases. A mortgage is guaranteed, an asset that supports the loan. Mortgage loans have a maturity of 15 to 30 years and therefore considered long-term financing. Therefore, this type of loan usually carries a lower interest rate compared to a loan equivalent risk with no guarantees. For deferred tax liabilities, which include property and equipment, land and revolution in the construction of it was recorded at RM32,940 million in 2013 and RM31,602 million in 2012. The total liabilities of Deferred tax increased by 4.23% in 2013, where the total increase was RM1,338 million. A company also get the benefits of resources or pension funds. For 2013, total loans of pension funds is a decline of 6.46% to RM3,099 million compared to 2012, it registered a total of RM3,313 million, where it is reduced of about RM214 million. This reduction occurs because Farm's Best Food has received a large amount of loans by the bank to which a mortgage. However, there are also disadvantages when the mortgage if the borrower files needed to make the payments on the mortgage, lenders can take possession of the property.
