Foundations of Finance: The Logic and Practice of Financial Management (4th Edition)
This guide provides students with a conceptual understanding of the financial decision-making process, rather than simply introducing them to soon-forgotten formulae or calculations of finance. Features include cash flows, financial markets, interviews and extensive coverage of ethics. Suitable for undergraduates on corporate finance and financial management courses, the text focuses on the concept of interrelationships, exploring the "big picture" and actual practice such as financial decision making and the current state of world economic conditions.
