Fundamentals of Corporate Finance FROM THE PUBLISHER
For introductory courses in Corporate Finance,this text balances core coverage of the fundamental topics in the course with an emphasis on modern business decision-making. The authors envision the typical student using the text to have little or no business background. Therefore,the key principles and mechanics of the time value of money,a central concept,are carefully detailed and richly illustrated; a full complement of pedagogical tools are included throughout every chapter to help students focus on and organize information; and the writing style is relaxed and informal.
