All organizations need different types of finance i.e.

long-term and short-term, but the combination in which these are used differ from one organization to another. For example, steel industry requires more long-term finance to be invested in plant and machinery than in the manufacture of leather goods or plastic buckets. On the other hand, for manufacturing hosiery items, use of short-term finance would be more than that of long-term finance. therefore, arrangement for funds to meet day-to-day expenses like inventory, raw material supplies and miscellaneous expenses has great significance.
