Monitoring the Cost Of Money: Interest Rates

Interest rates, the cost of money, influence most all factors related to personal and corporate capital budgeting. The more obvious personal information for the cost of money is the rates associated with a mortgage or car loan. As a CFO you would “shop” interest rates to find the best rate for your financing needs.

1. Would you, as the CFO, finance your projects as soon as possible if the cost of capital was expected to drop? Please explain.

2. More importantly, where do you find the information to analyze expected changes in interest rates?

3. Please list references and in-text citations.

4. PLEASE LOOK AT YOUR GRAMMER WHEN YOU ARE WRITING. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE COMPLETE SENTENCES SO THAT I CAN READ IT AND LIST REFERENCES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
