Abstract
Entrepreneurial Finance and Optimal Cash Inventories
In this paper we develop a lot size model for entrepreneurial financing problems. Starting out with a modified version of the standard lot sizing-model, we treat the cost of equity for externally provided equity as a dynamic variable. The start-up’s cash burn is also included as a dynamic variable. Using numerical examples, we show that the staging of equity investment in start-ups is significantly advantageous. From our model, we derive the optimum number of financing rounds and the absolute amount of money that can be saved by staging the investment.
