Practical Financial Management [Hardcover]

William R. Lasher (Author)

Book Description

ISBN-10: 0324006748 | ISBN-13: 978-0324006742 | Publication Date: July 30, 1999 | Edition: 2nd

Lasher (Nichols College) has written a textbook based on the assumption that students have never encountered the subject before, and the experience that even students who have prerequisite courses in mathematics and statistics are not really comfortable with quantitative approaches. Therefore he introduces each chapter from the ground zero, and explains the complex mathematics procedures step-by-step at a level for students who have studied the techniques but do not understand them very well.
