Description

Today's student wants to learn about all areas of finance rather than just how large corporations function. Finance includes coverage of the three main topic areas: markets and institutions, investments, and managerial finance. While the book's greatest emphasis is on corporate topics, the amount of detail has been limited to facilitate coverage of areas that are of interest to a greater number of students. This broad approach appeals to majors and non-majors alike by allowing students to better understand financial information for making business and personal finance decisions.

Features

NEW - NEW! End-of-chapter mini-cases and Web Exploration questions enable students to apply chapter material to real-world situations.

NEW - NEW! Careers in Finance boxes provide information on future employment possibilities for finance majors.

NEW - NEW! A tutorial CD-ROM including self-test problems, audio reviews of lectures, lists of key points, and other features is packaged with the text.

NEW - NEW! The Companion Web site includes 30-40 test questions per chapter, a PDF Excel tutorial, and Web Exploration questions from the text.

NEW - NEW! The number of end-of-chapter problems has been greatly increased. Most chapters have at least 10 additional self-test problems.

Popular Extension sections within each chapter “extend” coverage of certain topics, allowing professors to customize the text's level of difficulty.
