It emphasizes small businesses exclusively--with specific examples of the non-corporate market. The course is mathematically accessible to those with limited mathematical background (formulas are explained rather than derived, and only basic math is used in illustrations and solutions). A full case study is referred to throughout and an accompanying CD-ROM includes tables in Excel format. Financial and Economic Concepts; Financial Management and Planning; Financial Statements; Analysis of Financial Statements; Profit, Profitability, and Break-Even Analysis; Forecasting and Pro Forma Financial Statements; Working Capital Management; Time Value of Money; Capital Budgeting; Personal Finance; and Working with Spreadsheets.
