Financial Management

Jim Brau, PhD, CFA, CFP Andrew Holmes, PhD, CFA Ben Blau, PhD

At its core, finance is the analytics that support decision-making, and this resource teaches students how to use them. Students begin with financial statements and ratio analysis, then learn the time value of money and how to value debt and equity securities. They go on to examine risk and the CAPM, cost of capital, financial forecasting, capital budgeting, capital structure, and working capital management, and finish with firm valuation, government regulation, and global financial management. The resource gives students the financial analysis skills that support organizational decisions and strategy.
