Description
• Building Intuition boxes provide a statement of an important finance concept along with an intuitive example or explanation to help the student "get" the concept.
• Learning by Doing applications contain quantitative problems with step-by-step solutions to help students better understand how to apply their intuition and analytical skills to solve problems. This unique feature takes the stepped-out problem beyond other texts by offering "approaches" students can take to solve each problem.
• Decision-Making Examples emphasize the decision-making process along with computation and provide students at all levels with experience in financial decision-making.
• Learning Objectives identify the most important material for students to understand while reading the chapter.
• Chapter Opener Vignettes describe a real company application to illustrate concepts that will be presented in the chapter. These current vignettes are from international news highlighting domestic and global companies, reflecting the real world of business today.
• Before You Go On self-study questions throughout each chapter serve as a checkpoint at which students can test their understanding of the materials in that section.
