3.0 out of 5 stars Misleading!, July 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Financial Analysis With Microsoft Excel (Paperback)
Amazon advertises this book as being written in December 1997! It is from 1996 and uses the old Excel program! I was very discouraged when I opened it and put the software in! Guess that is the chance you take when you don't buy at a bookstore where you can look for yourself!

2.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Title, October 7, 2004
Should be "Introduction to Excel using Finance Examples" At an introductory level, the Excel coverage is OK. But the finance component is extremely shallow. The authors need to team up with someone who knows finance. Those who seriously want to learn what this text wanted to offer should try "Financial Modeling Using Excel and VBA" (Wiley Finance)
by Chandan Sengupta.

5.0 out of 5 stars Some background, January 29, 2008
This is the text for the FIN 4200 class taught by Dr. Mayes at Metro State College in Denver. When he wrote it he was frustrated with the lack of material available to teach under-grads what they needed to get employment in the business world or do more advanced work in grad school.

Having survived Dr. Mayes' class I can say this book is an Excellent text for learning practical advanced spreadsheet techniques. It is NOT a replacement for a corporate finance text, doesn't represent itself as that, and the chapters are actually laid out to parallel Brigham's Intermediate Financial Management text which is the text used in corp finance at Metro.

Each chapter represents approximately one week's topic, and it is necessary to do the problems at the end of each chapter to develop the skill needed to achieve his purpose. He also has all kinds of useful Excel type stuff on his website at (http://clem.mscd.edu/%7Emayest)
