Description
Introduction to Corporate Finance has been developed to provide a first course in the subject that interests and motivates students. The text has been designed to meet the needs of finance specialists and non-specialists, the latter being a segment of the audience that are not well catered for in the finance subject area. The text thus addresses the challenges all finance educators face: keeping students at varying degrees of ability and interest motivated and committed to the learning experience. The principal aim of the book is to deliver a student-friendly text that at the same time is theoretically rigorous. Corporate Finance covers the traditional topics of time value of money, risk and return, valuation, investment appraisal, capital structure and dividend policy, international finance and risk management, and financial planning. This edition is an adaptation for a European and UK audience of the text originally authored by Bill Megginson and Scott Smart, Introduction to Corporate Finance. The book has been rewritten, restructured and reorganized to reflect a European-centric approach.Throughout the authors have attempted to blend a balance of material it is impossible and improper to ignore the interlinkedness of modern finance, and in adapting this book the authors have been conscious of this. Although the examples, terminology and currencies are mainly those of Europe and the UK, the authors have not neglected to include US and other examples where needed to illustrate a point. Students working through this text will realise by the end that while details may differ from country to country the essential questions and concerns of corporate finance remain constant.
