This course develops students’ understanding of key financial decisions managers make. This includes investment evaluation, asset valuation, risk and return analysis, cost of capital, and capital structure.
The course follows two main approaches:
1. Core financial concepts: Covering topics such as net present value, discounted cash flow valuation, risk–return models, capital asset pricing, cost of capital, and capital structure. Students will solve financial problems and analyze financial cases to strengthen conceptual understanding.
2. Case analysis and application: Applying financial theories to real-world scenarios through mini cases, board correction exercises, case discussions, quizzes, and interactive learning activities. These activities aim to develop analytical thinking, quantitative skills, and practical financial decision-making.
Students are expected to actively participate in discussions and problem-solving activities, thereby integrating theoretical knowledge with practical financial analysis.
