Résumé

Smart, Megginson, and Gitman have created a technologically sophisticated, yet easy to use, Corporate Finance text.

Corporate Finance, 1e, has video interviews with leading scholars such as Myron Scholes, Jay Ritter, Ken French, and many others along with video clips with business executives from high profile companies such as Intel, Goldman Sachs, and Ford. Practitioners explain how they apply financial theory to solve real business problems.

Real-world examples from more than a dozen countries reinforce an applied, global perspective. Understand the nuances of financial theory and how theory is currently evolving using the different videos, integrated flash animated concept tutorials and problem solutions. For example, flash animations allow review of complex topics from portfolio theory to hedging to option pricing. Smart, Megginson, and Gitman created the animations and the videos and integrated them with the flow of the textbook rather than simply creating them as an optional add-on. The result: Solid graduate level finance coverage within a highly engaging, interactive book that helps one grasp the important elements of financial theory and how that theory is applied in business. You need to see how this texts delivers solid coverage coupled with exciting new technology.

Benefits:

Using market research, including analysis of more than 150 MBA-course syllabi, reviewer suggestions, and our own 50 plus years of research, writing, and teaching corporate finance at all levels, we designed the text to focus on what's really important to the practice of corporate finance.
Smart Concepts are concept review animations that allow students to study key topic areas on their own time, at their own pace.
Smart Solutions are animated problems and solutions that contain dynamic charts, graphs, and tables to help students sharpen their problem-solving skills and master quantitative concepts.
Smart Ideas Video clips use leading academics and researchers to explain important concepts and theories, in the field of corporate finance. See Kenneth French, Professor of Finance at Dartmouth, discuss the Three-Factor Model (also available in low-bandwidth).
Smart Practices Video clips show leaders in business and industry explaining how finance theory is used in practice on a daily basis. Watch John Eck, President of Broadcast and Network Operations for NBC, explain financial planning and analysis (also available in low-bandwidth).
Smart Ethics Video clips demonstrate the ways in which both academics and business executives see ethical conduct as crucial to the health of a firm's bottom line. Hear Jon Olson, Vice President of Finance at Intel Corp., discuss the importance of integrity in corporate finance (also available in low-bandwidth).
Opening Focus highlights real companies and/or timely topics that illustrate the application of modern finance theory.
Comparative Corporate Finance feature includes interesting comparative statistics (Internet penetration rates, fertility rates, etc.) and demonstrates their impact on financial markets.
Applying the Model throughout will demonstrate the application of the concepts or theories presented.
Covers modern corporate finance theory and concepts and links them to the practice of corporate finance, frequently using examples and applications to help the student grasp the concept and its practical relevance.
A very focused, topically cutting edge MBA-level text anchored in modern theory, and providing a smooth bridge to practice in a global environment employing the most advanced financial and information technologies.
Rather than treat international issues as appendages to a U.S.-centered focal point, we developed this text from a seamless global perspective. This has been accomplished by taking a generic view whenever practical, and when possible highlighting the similarities and the differences between application of important theories and concepts in the U.S. and in other important economies.
Custom software supports key text concepts. Linkages included to relevant financial databases and information sources, and embed URL's for numerous companies, databases, application tools, research papers, and so on in the text. Our aim is to incorporate technology only when it improves comprehension or provides an enriched learning experience, demonstration, or data source. Spreadsheet demonstrations and problems will, of course, be included when appropriate.
