Introduction to Corporate Finance

Catalog description

This course covers the foundations of corporate finance. We will study how to value assets and liabilities, with a focus on corporate investment projects. We will use the tools of valuation to study portfolio management (the tradeoff between risk and return) and corporate financial decision-making (how firms make financing, capital structure, and investment decisions). The course qualifies for the Economics major (BA and BS) and requires little prior exposure to finance.
