Financial Management offers you a solid foundation in core financial concepts. It achieves this by showing the cross-discipline relevance of finance, connecting you to your personal financial experiences and providing clear, timely feedback. A three-pronged problem-solving approach is used throughout to give you various ways to view and solve financial problems (i.e., equation, financial calculator or Excel® spreadsheet).

The 5th Edition is built around three major competencies: using the tools of finance, making connections and studying for success. This edition reflects trends and developments in finance, including the rise and risks of cryptocurrencies and the impact of fluctuating interest rates in recent years.
