Debt financing is the process of borrowing money from a lender such as a bank. These financings option comes in the forms of loans both secure and unsecured. "Security involves a form of collateral as an assurance the loan will be repaid. If the debtor defaults on the loan, that collateral is forfeited to satisfy payment of the debt" (Entrepreneur, 2014, p. 1). In most cases a lender will ask for some time of security on a loan and least often times will lend based on name recognition or status. One of the most common sources of debt financing is seen within startup businesses where debt financing is often provided by friends and family instead of commercial lending institutions.…

Debt financing is the selling of bonds, bills, and notes to raise money for working capital and capital expenditures. Debt financing are either short-term or long-term. Businesses can use debt financing to raise funds for a new company. When an institution lends money it becomes a creditor and expects repayment. Examples of debt financing are SBA-backed loans and line of credit. SBA-backed loans are Small Business Administration loans. These loans are for start-up companies and existing companies. SBA does not make the loans directly. A bank makes the loan. SBA guarantees half of the loan, which lessens the banks risks. Line of credit loans funds can be drawn when needed. When entrepreneurs have raised equity capital for leveraging funds a line of credit is issued. Lines of credit are due in one year. Lines of credit cover cash shortages during seasonal fluctuations.…

In business you need to take out loans to expand or in times of shortage. It is important to understand the risk of those loans and exactly how much needs to be paid and when. Sometimes businesses give loans to their customers. At my company we sell a product that is so expensive that companies sometimes have to obtain different loans from different banks to purchase different sections of an airplane. So we give some loans to our customers so they can afford our product. We have to be able to calculate the rates we charge so that we don’t over burden the customer and so we don’t end up with money that isn’t worth what it would of been the day we sold the plane. Then it would be like giving a discount.…

What if I said that a business owner could borrow money for his business without giving his personal guarantee or a pledge of his or family assets? What if I said that he could borrow these funds at a low fixed rate of interest? I would expect you to say that I must be crazy or certainly living in a dream world: well,perhaps, but I don't think that either is quite the case. A typical scenario, particularly in today's economic climate, is that the business owner approaches his bank for an expansion loan. The banker asks for the appropriate amount of acceptable collateral, personal guarantees, past three years financial statements, both business & personal, along with, perhaps, a business plan and cash flow projections for the proposed life of the loan. The probability of having the loan granted is next to zero. No one is lending today for a plethora of economic reasons. Being persistent and actually applying for a loan, and missing any of these aforementioned components, assures that the banker is off the hook and can readily say no. Furthermore, should reliance of repayment be based upon the projections and the success of the new expanded entity, makes the chance of the loan being booked even less likely. Bankers in the past were conservative, risk averse, protecting their shareholders interests and their own careers, that is of course prior to the sub prime market bust. Going the next…
