Course Overview

M413 focuses on financial analysis and decision-making of corporate managers. This course will provide you with the basic principles of corporate finance that can be used to deal with real life problems faced by financial managers. I expect you to 1) learn the basic theory extremely well and 2) be able to apply your knowledge to unfamiliar situations. You have to work hard to achieve the first goal and even harder for the second one. Some of the concepts we will learn are: financial planning, capital investment decisions, relation between risk and return, portfolio theory, capital structure, and valuation. See the preliminary schedule below.

Course Logistics

Participation is not required and all in person sessions will also be broadcasted real time and recorded to watch later for your convenience. For students who want to attend in person classes, due to social distancing requirements, we will follow a flipped (hybrid) class structure. This means that each student can come to the class once a week (Monday or Wednesday). You will be informed beforehand which session you can attend. If you want to attend sessions in person you have to attend the session you are assigned. Friday sessions will be online for everyone. Quizzes and Final Exam will be online during assigned time.

Course Materials:

Ø Text: No required textbook. The recommended textbook for the courses is Corporate Finance by Stephen Ross, Randolph Westerfield, Jeffrey Jaffe, and Bradford Jordan, 12th or newer edition, published by McGraw-Hill Irwin Publishing. In the course outline readings from the textbook are designated (RWJ&J). New or used copies of the textbook are available at the nearby campus bookstores or can be ordered online.

Ø Packet:Uploaded to Brightspace.

o I will post course materials such as presentation slides, example quiz questions, solutions etc. to Brightspace after the class. All sessions will also be recorded.

Ø Software/web resources.

o Word Processor (i.e. MS Word)

o Microphone and Webcam

o Zoom

Ø Brightspace page: You can access the course via Brightspace. It is strongly suggested that you explore and become familiar not only with the site navigation, but with content and resources available for this course.

Quiz: There are three online quizzes. No quiz makeup will be provided. If you miss a quiz for a valid reason provided prior to the exam, quiz points will be assigned to your final exam. If you fail to show up for any quiz without a valid excuse, you will receive a grade of zero.

Final Exam: The final exam is also online and cumulative. In rare cases [documented severe illness], a final exam makeup will be provided otherwise you grade for missing the final exam will be zero.

Homework:I encourage you to collaborate online on solving problems, however you have to understand the solution and write your own copy. Homework must be handed in on time; no credit will be given for late homework. You are expected to hand in all assignments. The primary goal of the homework is not to evaluate you. The main point of homework is to help you learn by ensuring that you prepare for class and think about the material. Some homework questions simply ask you a fact from the case to encourage everyone to read the case. Homework’s will be generously graded. If you submit something reasonable you will get 1 and 0 otherwise. Homework questions will be solved/discussed in class or solutions will be posted to Brightspace.

Participation: There is no grade for participation. If you miss a class watch the recorded video to catch up.

Course Grade:

o Quiz 1 20%

o Quiz 2 20%

o Quiz 3 20%

o Final exam 25%

o Homework 15%
