Abstract:
The definitive question and answer guide to understanding corporate finance From the team behind the popular corporate finance website, Vernimmen.com comes a concise guide to the subject, presented in an easy-to-use, highly accessible "question and answer" format. An essential reference for students of corporate finance and practising corporate financiers alike, Frequently Asked Questions in Corporate Finance answers key questions in financial engineering, valuation, financial policy, cost of capital, financial analysis, and financial management. Covering both the theory and practice of corporate finance, the book demonstrates how financial theory can be put to use solving practical problems. What advantages are there to a business looking to spin off its divisions into subsidiaries? Is there a formula that can be used to determine the change in normalised free cash flows? What are the possible reasons behind a share buyback? What are the pros and cons of off-market share buy-back? Filled with the answers to all of the most common, and not so common, questions about corporate finance, the book presents authoritative, reliable information from a respected team of experts from the banking, corporate, and academic worlds.
