Financial Decision Making

Course Overview

This course provides both a framework and the tools necessary to analyze, evaluate and interpret financial information. Both theoretical and practical perspectives of corporate finance will be introduced addressing three main functions of financial management – financial statement analysis (i.e ratios), investment decision making (i.e. capital budgeting) and financing decision making (i.e. cost of capital, capital structure, dividend policy). Students will analyze financial information to determine how choices reflect the underlying economics of the organization.

Course Materials: Antioch learners are enrolled in automatic delivery of all required course materials via our bookstore partner, Slingshot. Fees for texts and materials will be automatically applied to the student’s account. This means that while students are automatically enrolled to receive all required course materials by the first day of class, you are not required to participate and may choose to opt-out.
