Foundations of Financial Management, Study Guide and Workbook

This workbook goes over the highlights of each chapter and also goes through the problems and shows solutions. Highly recomended for the course.

I have bought this book to supplement financial management course I have been taking online. It proved to be very helpful with homework assignments and as a review for chapters that were too long in the textbook. I am going to use it for my next class as well.

The text is very easy to read and simple to follow along. The self study guide that comes with it is very handy to get a full understanding of the mathematical equations. I was disappointed that the weblink provided in the book to get more up to date information from Standard & Poor's was not working. I had to order the 11th edition for my second finance class but that was by order of the university. When the 11th edition arrived the weblink in that book worked. I really enjoy reading the book on my commute to and from work. I recommend this book to even the curious person who wants a better understanding of retirement and pension plans. I will always refer back to the two texts for all my finance needs.

Delivery was terrific. I received the book 6 days after I ordered it and it's brand new!

As an undergrad taking his first finance class, I have have found this book to be quite useful. The concepts are explained in simplified, less-complicated ways and make reading each chapter less frustrating than perhaps some others (compared to some of the econ texts that I have had to use!). It is well-written, concise, and employs some very straightforward, easy-to-follow graphs/diagrams. Also, both the formulas and the exercises at the end of each chapter are quite useful.The only reason that I did not give it a 5-star rating is because some of the chapters did not use enough "real-world examples" or hypothetical situations in some of the more challenging lessons. This might better aid those students who are new to finance or simply need another angle to better grasp the idea.
