What are three reasons why companies purchase investments in debt or stock securities? 2. Why would a corporation have excess cash that it does not need for operations? 3. What is the typical investment when investing cash for short periods of time? 4. What are the typical investments when investing cash to generate earnings? 5. Why would a company invest in securities that provide no current cash flows? 6. What is the typical stock investment when investing cash for strategic reasons? Understand debt and stock investments. Instructions: Provide answers for Max.

Companies purchase investments in debt or stock securities because they have excess cash, to generate earnings from investment income.

A corporation would have excess cash that it does not need for operations due to seasonal changes in sales and as a result of economic cycles.

The normal investment when investing cash for short periods of time is low-risk, high liquidity, shortterm securities such as government-issued securities.

The normal investments when investing cash to generate earnings are debt securities and stock securities.

A company would invest in securities that provide no current cash flows for speculative reasons. They are guessing that the investment will draw a profit.

The typical investments when investing cash for strategic reasons are stocks of companies in a related industry or in an unrelated industry that the company wishes to enter.
