Answer Posted / ameet narayankhedkar
Share Capital:
it can be composed of both common/ordinary and preferred
shares, funds are raised by issuing these shares in return
for cash or other assets. it is equity financing, the
company pays dividends to share holders at certain
percentage if she is able to pay due to good financial
position. here share holders are one of the owners of the
company.
Loan Capital:
it is short term or long term liabilities, which has end
date and annul interest payments funds are raised by issuing
for example debentures against these funds company has to
pay the amount of the interest annually to debenture holders
and principle amount at maturity date.
Here they are not the owner of the company but the
creditors.
Conclusion funds raised through share capital is the equity
finance it is the owner ship share of share holders in the
company and dividend is paid.
