For MBA/graduate students taking a course in corporate finance.
An emphasis on modern theory blended with practice elevates students’ financial decision making
Using the valuation framework based on the Law of One Price, top researchers Jonathan Berk and Peter DeMarzo have set the new canon for corporate finance textbooks. Corporate Finance: The Core, 5th Edition blends coverage of time-tested principles and the latest advancements with the practical perspective of the financial manager. Students have the opportunity to “practice finance to learn finance” by solving quantitative business problems like those faced by today’s professionals. With built-in resources to help students master the core concepts, students develop the tools they need to make sound financial decisions in their careers.
Corporate Finance: The Core, 5th Edition fits programs and individual professors who desire a streamlined book that is specifically tailored to the topics covered in the first one-semester course. For those who would like to use a text in a two semester, or more course, please see Corporate Finance, 5th Edition by the same authors.
