Financial Management (Twelfth Edition)

Financial Management, 12th edition is an honest and brave attempt at combining theory with practical applications. It begins with the discussion of fundamental concepts of value and return, risk and return relationship and valuation of shares and bonds. With this foundation, readers can easily understand the theories and methods, decision criteria, and financial policies and strategies necessary to manage funds and create and enhance the value of the Firm. Today, financial managers are responsible for shaping the fortunes of the enterprise and are involved in the most vital management decision of allocation of capital. Because of this change in emphasis, the descriptive treatment of the subject of financial management is being replaced by growing analytical content and sound theoretical underpinnings. This is exactly the kind of approach that has been adopted in this book. .
