What Does Fixed Yield Mean?

The expression Fixed Yield means that the yield, or gain, on a money instrument is set at a fixed, or constant, rate. It is often referred to as a Fixed Yield Income which would have the same meaning, only that the money instrument would be income. The rate does not change or alter over the course it runs regardless of economic or other social factors. This strategy helps to keep money instruments in check so that if for some reason expected rates of return are not achieved, there would not be any extra monetary pressure on the company or institution that has enforced the Fixed Yield plan.

For example, a company may hire 20 workers to pack boxes of bananas for export. They are paid a salary of $12,000 per annum with a Fixed Yield of 5% per annum on their incomes. This means that at the end of each financial year, they would be entitled to a fixed salary increase of 5% regardless of how good or bad business is. So we say that they a Fixed Yield Income. Another example of Fixed Yield would be a business investing money into a viable project in tandem with another business. The rate of return is set at a particular figure or percentage, meaning that the gain that is made on their investments is fixed. So they would be getting a Fixed Yield on their investments.

What Is Venture Capital

Venture Capital is the money that is used to finance new companies or projects, especially those that have high earning potential and high risk. The source of this type of capital varies but does not really matter as long as it can be found. So if an individual wants to start up a company that sells water, but doing so in a violent neighbourhood, Venture Capital is what the individual would need. The deal with it is that water has high earning potential since evryone needs water to survive. The neighbourhood would make setting up the business high risk because of its violent legacy whcihmay include robberies and so on. Nonetheless, it is still possible to setup the business despite that.

What Is Capital?

In the simplest of terms, Capital is the funds and assets invested in a business by the owners. This refers to any cash and fixed and current assets that the business partners pool together to get the business off the ground and keep it running. Capital is the main and first funding source that the business receives and profit is usually shared in the ratio that partners have shares in the business.

Other terms associated with Capital include accumulated assets, available money, investment, and startup capital (which is the money that was originally used to start the business). As an example, Max, Ted, and Luke decide to form a clothing business using whatever money and assets they have. Max has $40,000 and is a tailor. Ted has an empty 5,000 square foot building valued at $100,000 plus $10,000 cash. Luke has a car valued at $12,000 that he decides to use as the company vehicle plus $3,000 cash. The total startup Capital that the clothing business would have is the sum of all the monies plus the sum of the values of the assets, which gives a grand total of $165,000. In terms of shares and profit sharing, based on how they rank in terms of the amount of capital each brought into the business, Ted (with 67%) would be first followed by Max (with 24%) and then Luke (with 9%), which means Ted is the holder of the largest share in the business and has controlling interest.

What Are Certificates Of Deposit (CD’s)?

A Certificate of Deposit, or CD, is a financial product that is commonly offered to consumers by banks and credit unions. They are similar to savings accounts in that they are insured and therefore virtually risk-free. Certificates of Deposit are different from savings accounts in that they have a specific term. The term can range from three months to six months, or one to five years, or more) and is usually at a fixed interest rate. Certificates of Deposit are normally held until maturity, at which time the money may be withdrawn together with the accrued interest.
