In business planning and operations there are many ways to measure the success and viability of an enterprise. But regardless of how well a business stacks up on paper, without effective cash flow, it can be crippled, which can very quickly lead to its demise.

Featuring a presenter and Jonathan Pike from Westminster University, it explores the components of cash flow, liquidity and the importance of cash flow and the cash flow forecast.
It is an ideal programme for any student of business and business management at senior secondary and FE level. Show Less

Starting and operating any business is not simply a case of putting up a sign or registering a website and declaring yourself open for business. In the establishment of any enterprise, capital is needed before any doors open, phones ring or hits start appearing on the website. Likewise for established businesses, growth, expansion or diversification requires finance – and it’s got to come from somewhere.
This film examines the various sources of finance available to businesses. Barry Morse from the Cardiff Business School, in conjunction with a presenter, takes us through a range of sources of finance including shareholder funds, venture capital, silent partnerships, banks, trade credit and factoring. There is also a bonus section on hiring and leasing. This informative programme is an essential resource for all students of business and business management at senior secondary and FE levels.

Crimes against the environment take many forms, but it is a complex area of criminology. This programme, presented by Dr Steven Taylor, explores green crime and includes interviews with experts Dr Gary Potter and Dr Matt Follett.
It introduces transgressive criminology and the wider concept of harm, which can be applied to problems like rainforest destruction and global warming. It looks at how Marxism and Beck’s late modern concept of risk can be applied to crimes against the environment, and investigates the paradox of economic growth and consumption versus the need to curb global warming and deforestation. Can capitalism be a part of the solution? Could social pressure rather than laws be what compels us to become more ‘green’?
This programme is an excellent learning resource for senior level students in a range of disciplines including Sociology, Psychology and Legal Studies. Show Less
