Description of Applied Corporate Finance

Readable and usable in style and valuable in approach, this text provides the practical and succinct advice that students and practitioners need, rather than a sole concentration on debate theory, assumptions, or models. Like no other text of its kind, the author applies corporate finance to real companies. The new Third Edition has four real-world core companies to study and follow. Perfectly suited for MBA programs' corporate finance and equity valuation courses, all business decisions are classified into three groups: the investment, financing, and dividend decisions.

- New developments in the text's three core companies - Disney, US entertainment company; Aracruz, Brazilian paper and pulp companies; and Deutsche Bank, European bank - to reflect the latest developments to the companies since 2003.

- New addition of a fourth international company - Tata Chemicals, an Indian manufacturing firm. A detailed, current study of this Asian company and how it reflects the larger pattern of a family group company now common in Asia and Latin America.

- New examination of the banking crisis and how it will alter the way banks operate in the future.

- Updated discussions of risk-free rates and risk premiums to reflect the crisis of 2008 and what we have learned from that crisis.

- More online access to the live project study portion, reflecting the greater access to public information since the last edition.

- New and improved resources, including a new online glossary now available with the text.
