This course is intended to provide
students with basic financial management concepts and principles.
It mainly covers corporate finance and some part of asset
pricing. These fundamentals will help you to understand what
capital funds the business needs, how these funds are obtained,
and how they are managed. This course is highly quantitative
and many of the analyses rely on calculations. But, with an
understanding of basic algebra, you should be able to do reasonably
well by practicing problems at the end of the text.
