Very good introduction to Finance for Managers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I had no financial background when I took the course in Finance as a part of my MBA program. This text provides a very good foundation for all beginners. It helps to know some financial accounting concepts like the income statement, balance sheet etc. when you start off with this book.Every chapter has an excel spreadsheet example that is in the accompanying CD ROM. Also, there are computer based exercises that simulate the real-world practices when determining cashflow, doing capital budgeting, financial planning etc. The CD ROM has powerpoint slides that highlight the salient points in each chapter. Our instructor basically used those as a guide to teaching the course.Very good text book, highly recommended.
Top Textbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is the best textbook I've ever read. Not just the best financial textbook, but the best textbook. I used Van Horne in my MBA program in 1980. Van Horne made the same mistake that most textbook authors make: he assumes that either the student knows too much or that the teacher will clarify the author. Brigham, et. al., assumes that the student knows very little, which is always the safest assumption. In my opinion, it is impossible for an author to tell too much about a topic or to overexplain a topic. This appears to be Brigham's opinion, too. As a result, he has written a text that aids, rather than frustrates, the student in learning. In addition, it is an interestingly written text. I read well over half of the book in the evenings after work, plus Saturday and Sunday, in just one week. All textbook authors should learn from Eugene Brigham how a text book is to be written. Explain, clarify, use examples, and explain again.
A different opinion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I fully understand how very intelligent people who do not have advance financial training would find this book overly complicated. This is not the sort of book you read in bed -- it is a text book. But it is one the most useful on my shelf. I refer to it constantly. I'm a former Goldman Sachs investment banker and current CEO of a technology company with a JD/MBA from NYU. This book was required reading for an advanced corporate finance class I took while in school. It is the best finance book I have ever purchased.This is not a primer. But for those who understand DCF, optimal capital structure, capital leases and working capital management... this is your book.
