Intro to Finance - Money, Markets and You

Catalog description

References to business, accounting, and financial markets are ubiquitous in our daily lives but are often intimidating to the outsider due to the specialized vocabulary and extensive use of abbreviations and acronyms (S&P 500, Fed Funds rate, EBITDA, EPS, P/E, DCF, EVA, etc.). However, regardless of our career choices, business and the financial markets play a role in our lives. All of us are consumers of financial services and we are all directly and indirectly impacted by capital allocation and market movements - it behooves us to be educated consumers, employees, business owners, and citizens.
