It is intended for the introductory finance course required of all business majors, usually called "Corporate Finance".

New to this edition: * New four-colour design * New author Bodie Dickerson brings new material from more than 12 years of teaching experiences with thousands of students at Oregon State. * Unique, stand-alone Lotus-based mini-cases which appear at the end of five chapters (6,7,9,14,16) allow students to build their own models without templates. As a result, they learn the entire process. Software has been class-tested for the past eight years in Dickerson's classes. * Many new problems have been added based on Dickerson's teaching to large class sections at Oregon State. New problems are shorter, concise, and applied. * Chapter 9, Management of Cash & Market Securities, has been extensively revised, with an excellent new case on Cash Budget. * Learning objectives, tied into end-of-chapter summaries and main chapter points, provide continuity. Self-test questions provide the apparatus to check student knowledge. * Chapter 8 on working capital has been revised to improve coverage of this important topic. * The material on bond valuation (Ch. 16), common stock (Ch. 17) and financial institutions (Ch. 3) is treated by presenting the models first, followed by descriptive presentations, for a smooth flow of topics. * The International Finance chapter (23), written by Michael Moffet, now has a practical rather than a historical emphasis.
