In this case I will be assuming to start a business to manufacturer wheelchairs and i will need to raise $200,000 to fund product development, initial marketing expenses, and provide working capital to finance accounts receivable and inventory. I have $100,000 of your own savings. In this case out of $200000, I already have $100000 as my own savings that I will be using as the means of funding from my personal savings because this is a start of a new venture and keeping debt finance low will be good.
