Product Description This book focuses on critical financial concepts, skills, and technological applications required by every M.B.A. in the twenty-first-century workplace. It's a lean textbook that provides an in-depth treatment of all essential topics in corporate finance, yet it can be completed in a single semester. This concise text includes Excel? Tool Kits corresponding to each chapter and showing how calculations used in the chapter are done in Excel?. These useful models include explanations and screen shots that show you how to use many of the features and functions of Excel?, enabling the Tool Kits to serve as self-taught tutorials on Excel?. This text also features Mini Case Spreadsheets, which are Excel? spreadsheets that perform the calculations required in the Mini Cases. This new edition includes features that allow you to do "what-if" analysis on a real-time basis in class. Another unique feature is Web Safaris, which are links that facilitate Internet searches for useful financial data. Each has a specific goal, such as finding the current spreads between Treasury bonds and rated bonds. The Web Safaris walk you through navigating to the desired information. Each chapter of the text has a "Build a Model" problem where you start with a spreadsheet that contains financial data, plus instructions for solving a particular problem. The model is partially completed with headings but no formulas, so you practice building a financial model. The text also includes Cyberproblems, which require you to go to specific websites and answer a series of questions. The answers are then available on your instructor's website.

Excellent executive-level corporate finance book June 22, 2003 Ivan Batanov (Los Angeles, CA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
The book gives a good insight of all major corporate finance, firm valuation and stock valuation and capital management methodologies and tools. The text is easy to read, provides the right level of quantitative analysis for the audience in order to be interesting and useful. The Excel templates from the book are available for free (even if you don't have the book) at [website] In my opinion the book is a must-have for every executive-level manager, particularly in a public company.

Very concise and an extremely good October 10, 2005 Rodolfo Nunez (NY, NY, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I really like this good. It is very concise but it covers everything on corporate finance. I've been using it for over a month in my corporate finance class and it had surpasses my expectations.
A well-written book June 27, 2007 Assem (OH, USA) I used this textbook for one of my graduate level finance classes, and I just loved the book! It's very well-written, and covers all the basic premises of finance (PV, FV, etc), and then goes on to more advanced stuff (Equity and Fixed Income Valuation, etc). The textbook requires some knowledge of accounting for more advanced topics. Overall, I found the book easy-to-read and easy-to-follow. I found the book useful for the CFA Level I exam preparation, as it gives in-breadth explanation of major concepts.
Good Book February 17, 2009 L. Ratliff (NM) The book is easy to understand. The authors present the material in a way that is easy to follow and comprehend.
