Corporate Finance is the intended textbook at the MBA level as well as undergraduates at higher-level schools. Throughout the text, real companies and real data are used in examples and exercises. It asks you to combine theory and data in order to make an investment, financing, and dividend decisions. But rather than making these decisions in a hypothetical environment, you analyze real data for real companies.
The Second Edition additional resources include:
Links and support from the Real Companies, Real Time in-text exercises
Extra practice problems and solutions
Periodically updated data for the companies analyzed in the text
Excel Worksheets for problems in the text
Wall Street Journal Business Extra Reading Room (A set of articles and discussion questions related to various topics cited within the text.)
