"Market" vs. "Total Cash" Are they related? Can companies take part in the fold as cash in the balance?

If a company has market capitalization 300B in cash and 7B, what does that mean? 7B is just another resource allocation of the CAP? What're the rules governing the use of the CAP? This is something that the CEO chooses? What makes up the "Total Cash"? In other words, firms can take the money from the sale of shares and "save" and "Total Cash"? For Cap, I meant more than the amount of money " or cash "taken by investors. And my question is if that money can be" masked "as the total cash it seems that the company has a lot when money is only part of investors' money ... Does this make sense? Ok, here's an important point (IPO-wikipedia): "The money paid by investors for newly issued shares goes directly to the company (in contrast to a later trade of shares on the exchange, where money passes between the investors). "



"Total cash" is the actual amount of cash the company has at this time. "Market Cap" is a short for market capitalization, ie the total value of all shares outstanding. There is a number that the company really can control. As the stock price varies, so has the market capitalization (total shares price X shares per share). They have nothing to do with each other, and number of market capitalization is not really a game of balance - is neither active nor passive. It's just a number representing the total value of the shares of the company, which varies with the share price and number of shares outstanding.
