Description and Table of Contents

Description

This sixth edition of "Basic Financial Management" places more emphasis on valuation and what the capital markets have to say for the financial manager. Featuring the use of Disclosure - a state-of-the-art database software package, the book aims to develop the reader's problem solving skills through working with real data rather than just hypothetical problems. The authors recognise the importance of the financial calculator, greatly increase the integration of ethical and global coverage and provide extensive problem sets to challenge readers and reinforce learning.
