INTRODUCTION
Financial management attempts to determine the financial role of the business problem that
leads to the financial planning of the problem. Financial planning is an important component of
the business issue, which contributes to the development of an organization. The organisation is
able to make sound financial decisions through financial accounting. The financial decision will
affect the entire economic operation of the company (Anagnostopoulou and Tsekrekos, 2017).
Because there is a close relationship with various departments of the company, such as ads, sales
personnel, etc. To ensure the organization has enough income to finance its commitments,
financial administrators must control daily operating documents, including such cash receipts
and disbursements. For a longer period of time, the advisor would thoroughly examine when and

most efficient way of financing the project, gathering the finances and then monitoring the
project's implementation and efficiency.

Brain storming: It is one of the traditional decision-making processes where all team members
work together again and try to assess the role of the organisation in order to decide successful
opportunities to boost it. It is utilized by Tesco executives to examine new ways of achieving
company objectives such that they can consider a response to the organization's problems. It
encourages efficient decision-making since it directs them to decide the measures they should
apply to achieve the organization. It is good for the company since it gives creative approaches
to challenging challenges faced by the organization (Chen, Yang and Zeng, 2018).
SWOT analysis: It is a methodology that is often used by all companies like Tesco in successful
decision-making since staffs are aware of capabilities, vulnerabilities, advantages and market
