Description of Essentials of Corporate Finance |
The three basic themes that emerge in this student text are an emphasis on working at an intuitive level, a unified valuation approach to corporate finance and a managerial focus emphasising the role of the financial manager as a decision maker.
This book is written to convey the most important concepts and principles of corporate finance at a level suitable for a wide audience. The authors retain their modern approach, but have distilled the subject down to the essential topics in 18 chapters. They believe that the "why" is at least as important to understand as the "how," especially in an introductory course.
Three basic themes emerge:
1. An emphasis on intuition: separate and explain the principles at work on a common sense, intuitive level before launching into specifics. Underlying ideas are discussed first in general terms, then followed by specific examples that illustrate in more concrete terms how a financial manager might proceed
2. A unified valuation approach: Net Present Value is treated as the basic concept underlying corporate finance. Every subject the authors cover is firmly rooted in valuation, and care is taken to explain how decisions have valuation effects
3. A managerial focus: The role of financial manager as decision maker is emphasized, as well as the need for managerial input and judgment.
