A financial manager has a fundamental role in a business in seeking to ensure that cash flows are properly managed. 

Discuss the role that the financial manager has, and the goals that are often associated with such a role. 

Suppose you are the financial manager of Nyx Plc, a British restaurant chain that has been profitable over the past seven years and did not distribute any dividends to shareholders in the previous year. The company is planning to further expand its business by opening three new restaurants in the south of the country.

You are required to identify the two main types of financial decisions you will need to consider as a financial manager to evaluate the company's expansion plan. For each financial decision identified, provide at least two examples of a relevant business transaction.
