1) Profit maximization1) Profit maximization

When profit-earning is the main aim then its maximization should be obvious.

Profitability is a barometer for measuring efficiency and economic prosperity of a business enterprise.

Profits fuel business growth. So business should maximize profit to ensure strong growth.

Business risks are unavoidable as well as uncertain.

All other business goals (social goals can be meat only with adequate profits)so it should be maximized.

18

Criticisms of profit Criticisms of profit maximizationmaximizationProfit maximization ignores time value of money.Profit maximization does not take into account the

risk involved in prospective earnings.It would lead to inequalities and loss of human

values which are essential to a society.Today's market is characterized by imperfect

competition in this scenario, profit maximization can not be the obvious objective of the business.

The term profit itself is not precisely defined, it can be short term/long term or gross profit/ net profit before tax/ profit after tax, as such maximizing profits is also vague.

19

2) Wealth maximization2) Wealth maximization

Wealth maximization means maximizing share/stock holders wealth.

symbolically

share holder’s = no of shares x × wealth owned

Current stock price per share

20

Factors in favor of wealth Factors in favor of wealth maximizationmaximizationIt serves the interests of creditors,

employs, shareholders and society.Wealth maximization adds to productivity

and efficiency of the firm.It minimizes the conflict between share

holders and management of the company.Wealth maximization takes into account

time value of money. the objective helps in increasing value of

shares in the market.21

Criticisms of wealth Criticisms of wealth maximizationmaximization

It is prescriptive idea. It is not descriptive of what firms actually do.

Wealth maximization is not necessarily socially desirable.

There is some controversy as to whether the objective is to maximize shareholders wealth or firms wealth(since debenture holders, preferential holders also happen to be a part of the firm).
