Caracteristici

Dispelling the Fear of Finance:  An Example Driven Presentation and “Teacherly” Tone

In order to help students overcome the fear of abstract concepts associated with corporate finance, numerical examples are presented first, with easy one-to-one formula correspondence. The theoretical concept follows the concrete example.  

This text offers a conversational, sometimes humorous, “teacherly” tone to the writing that establishes a rapport with the reader and has been universally praised.  The author believes that in essence, finance is simple, and everyone can understand it.

Unique Organization that Builds from the simple case to the complex

This text provides a unifying perspective of perfect and imperfect markets.  The text begins with the most simple case of perfect markets  and then gradually layers on of real-world imperfections.  The chapters progress from a risk-free to risk-neutral to risk-averse world with risk premium, taxes, uncertainty, transaction costs, and fluctuating interest rates.  This organization allows students to steadily build on their understanding of the topics.

Answering the WHAT and WHY

Welch emphasizes the why, the underlying logic, in financial decisions and actions as well as the what to help students understand the complex topics and gain intuition.

Solve Nows

A series of questions at the end of each chapter section provides immediate reinforcement  of the concepts.  Answers are provided at the end of the chapter.

Several other features are available to enrich the material as a whole:

•    How Bad Are Mistakes? - Illustrate the relative magnitude of errors and instances where the theory falls short
•    Anecdotes highlight financial lore from history, contemporary news, and other sources
•    Side Notes and Digging Deeper amplify selected topics
•    Marginal Notes distill key points
