  fundamentals of corporate finance stephen ross: Fundamentals of Corporate Finance STEPHEN & TRAYLER ROSS (ROWAN.), Stephen A Ross, Rowan Trayler, Charles Koh, Gerhard Hambusch, Kristoffer Glover, Randolph Westerfield, Bradford D Jordan, 2020 Fundamentals of Corporate Finance 8e combines an applied introduction of concepts, with a clear and strong focus on learning outcomes. Based on the principle that students' understanding of corporate finance should be developed in terms of a few integrated and powerful ideas, it has 3 basic themes at its core: 1. An emphasis on intuition: It separates and explains key principles on a common-sense, intuitive level before launching into specifics. The intuitive organisation of chapters also means that traditionally 'more-difficult' topics arise as a natural extension to the work that has gone before. 2. A unified valuation approach: Net present value (NPV) is treated as the basic concept underlying corporate finance. 3. A managerial focus: It emphasises the role of the financial manager as a decision maker, and the need for managerial input and judgement is stressed.Up-to-date examples and cases in all chapters make the 8th edition a comprehensive manual of applied financial management, covering financial hot topics and focus areas, as well as a historic overview of developments in (and lessons learned from) equity and debt markets. Cases focusing on well-known ANZ and international companies show how recognisable organisations put corporate finance into practice, and how real-world events such as the COVID-19 pandemic affect some of their corporate finance decisions. This new edition is even more flexible than its predecessors, offering flexibility of coverage to unit coordinators in designing their courses.

  fundamentals of corporate finance stephen ross: Fundamentals of Investments Charles J. Corrado, Bradford D. Jordan, 2005 Fundamentals of Investments was written to: 1. Focus on students as investment managers, giving them information they can act on instead of concentrating on theories and research without the proper context. 2.

  fundamentals of corporate finance stephen ross: Neoclassical Finance Stephen A. Ross, 2009-04-11 Neoclassical Finance provides a concise and powerful account of the underlying principles of modern finance, drawing on a generation of theoretical and empirical advances in the field. Stephen Ross developed the no arbitrage principle, tying asset pricing to the simple proposition that there are no free lunches in financial markets, and jointly with John Cox he developed the related concept of risk-neutral pricing. In this book Ross makes a strong case that these concepts are the fundamental pillars of modern finance and, in particular, of market efficiency. In an efficient market prices reflect the information possessed by the market and, as a consequence, trading schemes using commonly available information to beat the market are doomed to fail. By stark contrast, the currently popular stance offered by behavioral finance, fueled by a number of apparent anomalies in the financial markets, regards market prices as subject to the psychological whims of investors. But without any appeal to psychology, Ross shows that neoclassical theory provides a simple and rich explanation that resolves many of the anomalies on which behavioral finance has been fixated. Based on the inaugural Princeton Lectures in Finance, sponsored by the Bendheim Center for Finance of Princeton University, this elegant book represents a major contribution to the ongoing debate on market efficiency, and serves as a useful primer on the fundamentals of finance for both scholars and practitioners.

Ross, 2020-01-07 Corporate Finance: Core was developed for the graduate (MBA) level as a concise, up-to-date, and to-the-point product, the majority of which can be realistically covered in a single term or course. To achieve the objective of reaching out to the many different types of students and the varying course settings, corporate finance is distilled down to its core, while maintaining a decidedly modern approach. Purely theoretical issues are downplayed, and the use of extensive and elaborate calculations is minimized to illustrate points that are either intuitively obvious or of limited practical use. The goal was to focus on what students really need to carry away from a principles course. A balance is struck by introducing and covering the essentials, while leaving more specialized topics to follow-up courses. Net present value is treated as the underlying and unifying concept in corporate finance. Every subject covered is firmly rooted in valuation, and care is taken throughout to explain how particular decisions have valuation effects. Also, the role of the financial manager as decision maker is emphasized, and the need for managerial input and judgment is stressed.

  fundamentals of corporate finance stephen ross: Finance for Normal People Meir Statman, 2017 Finance for Normal People teaches behavioral finance to people like you and me - normal people, neither rational nor irrational. We are consumers, savers, investors, and managers - corporate managers, money managers, financial advisers, and all other financial professionals. The book guides us to know our wants-including hope for riches, protection from poverty, caring for family, sincere social responsibility and high social status. It teaches financial facts and human behavior, including making cognitive and emotional shortcuts and avoiding cognitive and emotional errors such as overconfidence, hindsight, exaggerated fear, and unrealistic hope. And it guides us to banish ignorance, gain knowledge, and increase the ratio of smart to foolish behavior on our way to what we want. These lessons of behavioral finance draw on what we know about us-normal people-including our wants, cognition, and emotions. And they draw on the roles of these factors in saving and spending, portfolio construction, returns we can expect from our investments, and whether we can hope to beat the market. Meir Statman, a founder of behavioral finance, draws on his extensive research and the research of many others to build a unified structure of behavioral finance. Its foundation blocks include normal behavior, behavioral portfolio theory, behavioral life-cycle theory, behavioral asset pricing theory, and behavioral market efficiency.
  fundamentals of corporate finance stephen ross: Accounting for Value Stephen Penman, 2010-12-30 Accounting for Value teaches investors and analysts how to handle accounting in evaluating equity investments. The book's novel approach shows that valuation and accounting are much the same: valuation is actually a matter of accounting for value. Laying aside many of the tools of modern finance the cost-of-capital, the CAPM, and discounted cash flow analysis Stephen Penman returns to the common-sense principles that have long guided fundamental investing: price is what you pay but value is what you get; the risk in investing is the risk of paying too much; anchor on what you know rather than speculation; and beware of paying too much for speculative growth. Penman puts these ideas in touch with the quantification supplied by accounting, producing practical tools for the intelligent investor. Accounting for value provides protection from paying too much for a stock and clues the investor in to the likely return from buying growth. Strikingly, the analysis finesses the need to calculate a cost-of-capital, which often frustrates the application of modern valuation techniques. Accounting for value recasts value versus growth investing and explains such curiosities as why earnings-to-price and book-to-price ratios predict stock returns. By the end of the book, Penman has the intelligent investor thinking like an intelligent accountant, better equipped to handle the bubbles and crashes of our time. For accounting regulators, Penman also prescribes a formula for intelligent accounting reform, engaging with such controversial issues as fair value accounting.
