This book has been written for the introductory courses in corporate finance at the MBA level, and for the intermediate courses in many undergraduate programs. Some instructors will find our text appropriate for the introductory course at the undergraduate level as well. [The authors of the text] assume that most students either will have take, or will be concurrently enrolled in, courses in accounting, statics, and economics. This exposure will help students understand some of the more difficult material ... The only mathematics prerequisite is basic algebra.-Pref.
