Mobile Corp. Chapter 2 in this part explains how financial analysts construct cash flow projections, which are a required component of net present value analysis. The final chapter in Part V describes how firms analyze the risks associated with capital investments.
The overarching organization helps students to make connections -- each major decision is presented in terms of both risk and return factors and their potential impact on an owner’s wealth.
- Focus on Value at the end of each chapter helps reinforce students’ understanding of the link between a financial manager’s actions and a firm’s share value.

Provide real, hands-on examples and connections

New - Chapter-opening vignettes feature companies such as Airbnb, Kroger, Netflix, Apple, Tesla, General Motors, Whirlpool, and Dell that are familiar to students and relevant for business in the “real world.”

Personal Finance Connections show students the value of applying financial principles and techniques to their personal lives:

In today’s world international considerations are essential to the study of business in general -- and finance in particular. Discussions of international dimensions are integrated throughout the chapters, learning goals, and end-of-chapter content.
