Preface
We have written Fundamentals of Corporate Finance for use in an introductory course in
corporate finance at the undergraduate level. It is also suitable for advanced undergraduate, executive development, and traditional or executive MBA courses when supplemented with cases and outside readings. The main chapters in the book assume that
students are well-versed in algebra and that they have taken courses in principles of
economics and financial accounting. Optional chapters covering important economic
and financial accounting concepts are included for students and instructors seeking
such coverage.
Balance Between Conceptual Understanding
and Computational Skills
We wrote this corporate finance text for one very important reason. We want to provide students and instructors with a book that strikes the best possible balance between helping students develop an intuitive understanding of key financial concepts and providing them with
problem-solving and decision-making skills. In our experience, teaching students at all levels
and across a range of business schools, we have found that students who understand the intuition underlying the basic concepts of finance are better able to develop the critical judgment
necessary to apply financial tools to a broad range of real-world situations. An introductory
corporate finance course should provide students with a strong understanding of both the
concepts and tools that will help them in their subsequent business studies and their personal
and professional lives.
Market research supports our view. Many faculty members who teach the introductory
corporate finance course to undergraduates express a desire for a book that bridges the gap
between conceptually-focused and computationally-focused books. This text is designed to
bridge this gap. Specifically, the text develops the fundamental concepts underlying corporate
finance in an intuitive manner while maintaining a strong emphasis on developing computational skills. It also takes the students one step further by emphasizing the use of intuition and
analytical skills in decision making.
Our ultimate goal has been to write a book and develop associated learning tools that
help our colleagues succeed in the classroom—materials that are genuinely helpful in the
learning process. Our book offers a level of rigor that is appropriate for finance majors and yet
presents the content in a manner that both finance and non-finance students find accessible
and want to read. Writing a book that is both rigorous and accessible has been one of our key
objectives, and both faculty and student reviews of the first edition, as well as pre-publication
chapters from this second edition, suggest that we have achieved this objective.
We have also tried to provide solutions to many of the challenges facing finance faculty in
the current environment, who are asked to teach ever-increasing numbers of students with
limited resources. Faculty members need a book and associated learning tools that help them
effectively leverage their time. The organization of this book and the supplemental materials,
along with the innovative WileyPLUS Web-based interface, which offers extensive problem
solving opportunities and other resources for students, provide such leverage to an extent not
found with other textbooks.

PREFACE
A Focus on Value Creation
This book is more than a collection of ideas, equations, and chapters. It has an important integrating theme—that of value creation. This theme, which is carried throughout the book,
provides a framework that helps students understand the relations between the various concepts covered in the book and makes it easier for them to learn these concepts.
The concept of value creation is the most fundamental notion in corporate finance. It is
in stockholders’ best interests for value maximization to be at the heart of the financial decisions made within the firm. Thus, it is critical that students be able to analyze and make
business decisions with a focus on value creation. The concept of value creation is introduced in the first chapter of the book and is further developed and applied throughout the
remaining chapters.
The theme of value creation is operationalized through the net present value (NPV)
concept. Once students grasp the fundamental idea that financial decision makers should
only choose courses of action whose benefits exceed their costs, analysis and decision making using the NPV concept becomes second nature. By helping students better understand
the economic rationale for a decision from the outset, rather than initially focusing on computational skills, our text keeps students focused on the true purpose of the calculations and
the decision at hand.
Integrated Approach: Intuition, Analysis, and Decision Making
To support the focus on value creation, we have emphasized three things: (1) providing an
intuitive framework for understanding fundamental finance concepts, (2) teaching students
how to analyze and solve finance problems, and (3) helping students develop the ability to use
the results from their analyses to make good financial decisions.
1. An Intuitive Approach: We believe that explaining finance concepts in an intuitive
context helps students develop a richer understanding of those concepts and gain better
insights into how finance problems can be approached. It is our experience that students
who have a strong conceptual understanding of financial theory better understand how
things really work and are better problem solvers and decision makers than students
who focus primarily on computational skills.
2. Analysis and Problem Solving: With a strong understanding of the basic principles of
finance, students are equipped to tackle a wide range of financial problems. In addition
to the many numerical examples that are solved in the text of each chapter, this book has
almost 1,200 end-of-chapter homework and review problems that have been written
with Bloom’s Taxonomy in mind. Solutions for these problems are provided in the
Instructor’s Manual. We strive to help students acquire the ability to analyze and solve
finance problems.
3. Decision Making: In the end, we want to prepare students to make sound financial
decisions. To help students develop these skills, throughout the text we illustrate how the
results from financial analyses are used in decision making.

Organization and Coverage
n order to help students develop the skills necessary to tackle
nvestment and financing decisions, we have arranged the
book’s 21 chapters into five major building blocks, that collecively comprise the seven parts of the book, as illustrated in the
ccompanying exhibit and described below.
ntroduction
Part 1, which consists of Chapter 1, provides an introduction
o corporate finance. It describes the role of the financial manger, the types of fundamental decisions that financial mangers
make, alternative forms of business organization, the goal of
he firm, agency conflicts and how they arise, and the imporance of ethics in financial decision-making. These discussions
et the stage and provide a framework that students can use to
hink about key concepts as the course progresses.

knowledge and tools that students should understand before
they begin the study of financial concepts. Most of the material in these chapters is typically taught in other courses.
Since students come to the corporate finance course with
varying academic backgrounds, and because the time that
has elapsed since students have taken particular prerequisite
courses also varies, the chapters in Part 2 can help the instructor ensure that all students have the same base level of
knowledge early in the course. Depending on the educational
background of the students, the instructor might not find it
necessary to cover all or any of the material in these chapters.
Some or all of these chapters might, instead, be assigned as
supplemental readings.
Chapter 2 describes the services financial institutions provide to businesses, how domestic and international financial
markets work, the concept of market efficiency, how firms use
financial markets, and how interest rates are determined in the
economy. Chapter 3 describes the key financial statements and
how they are related, as well as how these statements are related
to cash flows to investors. Chapter 4 discusses ratio analysis

ORGANIZATION AND COVERAGE
and other tools used to evaluate financial statements. Throughout Part 2, we emphasize the importance of cash flows to get
students thinking about cash flows as a critical component of
all valuation calculations and financial decisions.
Basic Concepts and Tools
Part 3 presents basic financial concepts and tools and illustrates their application. This part of the text, which consists of
Chapters 5 through 9, introduces time value of money and risk
and return concepts and then applies present value concepts to
bond and stock valuation. These chapters provide students
with basic financial intuitions and computational tools that
will serve as the building blocks for analyzing investment and
financing decisions in subsequent chapters.
Analysis
Parts 4 and 5 of the text focus on investment and financing
decisions. Part 4 covers capital budgeting. Chapter 10 introduces the concept of net present value and illustrates its application as the principle tool for evaluating capital projects. It
also discusses alternative capital budgeting decision rules, such
as internal rate of return, payback period, and accounting rate
of return, and compares them with the net present value criterion. This discussion provides a framework that will help students in the rest of Part 4 as they learn the nuances of capital
budgeting analysis in realistic settings.
Chapters 11 and 12 follow with in-depth discussions of how
cash flows are calculated and forecast. The cash flow calculations
are presented in Chapter 11 using a valuation framework that
will help students think about valuation concepts in an intuitive
way and will prepare them for the extension of these concepts to
business valuation in Chapter 18. Chapter 12 covers analytical
tools—such as breakeven, sensitivity, scenario, and simulation
analysis—that will give students a better appreciation for how
they can deal with the uncertainties associated with cash flow
forecasts. Capital rationing is also covered in Chapter 12.
Chapter 13 explains how the discount rates used in capital budgeting are estimated. This chapter uses an innovative
concept—that of the finance balance sheet—to help students
develop an intuitive understanding of the relations between
the costs of the individual components of capital and the
firm’s overall weighted average cost of capital. It also provides a detailed discussion of methods used to estimate the
costs of the individual components of capital that are used to
finance a firm’s investments and how these estimates are used
in capital budgeting.
Part 5 covers working capital management and financing
decisions. It begins, in Chapter 14, with an introduction to how
firms manage their working capital and the implications of
working capital management decisions for financing decisions
and firm value. This material is followed, in Chapters 15 and 16,
with discussions of how firms raise capital to fund their real
activities and the factors that affect how firms choose among
the various sources of capital available to them. Chapter 16 also
includes an extensive appendix on leasing concepts and buy vs.
lease analysis. Chapter 17 rounds out the discussion of financing
xi
decisions with an introduction to dividends, stock repurchases,
stock dividends and splits, and payout policy.
Integration
Part 6, which consists of Chapters 18 and 19, brings together many
of the key concepts introduced in the earlier parts of the text.
Chapter 18 covers financial aspects of business formation and
growth and introduces students to business valuation concepts
for both private and public firms. The discussions in this chapter
integrate the investment and financing concepts discussed in
Parts 4 and 5 to provide students with a more complete picture
of how all the financial concepts fit together. Chapter 19 covers
concepts related to financial planning and forecasting.
Part 7 introduces students to some important issues that
managers must deal with in applying the concepts covered in
the text to real-world problems. Chapter 20 introduces call
and put options and discusses how they relate to investment
and financing decisions. It describes options that are embedded in the securities that firms issue. It also explains, at an
accessible level, the idea behind real options and why traditional NPV analysis does not take such options into account.
In addition, the chapter discusses agency costs of debt and
equity and the implications of these costs for investment and
financing decisions. Finally, Chapter 20 illustrates the use of
options in risk management. Instructors can cover the topics
in Chapter 20 near the end of the course or insert them at the
appropriate points in Parts 4 and 5. Chapter 21 examines how
international considerations affect the application of concepts
covered in the book.
Unique Chapters
Chapter on Business Formation, Growth,
and Valuation
We wrote Chapter 18 in response to students’ heightened interest in new business formation (entrepreneurship) and in order
to draw together, in a comprehensive way, the key concepts
from capital budgeting, working capital management, and financial policy. This capstone chapter provides an overview of
practical finance issues associated with forecasting cash flows
and capital requirements for a new business, preparing a business plan, and business valuation. The discussion of business
valuation extends far beyond that found in other introductory
corporate finance textbooks.
Chapter on Options and Corporate Finance
Many other corporate finance textbooks have a chapter that
introduces students to financial options and how they are
valued. This chapter goes further. It provides a focused discussion of the different types of financial and non-financial
options that are of concern to financial managers, including
options embedded in debt and equity securities, real options
and their effect on project analysis, how option-like payoff
functions faced by stockholders, bondholders, and managers
affect agency relationships, and the use of options in risk
management.

LEARNING BY DOING APPLICATION
Along with a generous number of in-text examples, most chapters include several
Learning by Doing Applications. These applications contain quantitative problems
with step-by-step solutions to help students better understand how to apply their
intuition and analytical skills to solve important problems. By including these
exercises, we provide students with additional practice in the application of the

concepts, tools, and methods that are discussed in the text.
BUILDING INTUITION
BUILDING
INTUITION
MORE RISK MEANS A HIGHER
EXPECTED RETURN
The greater the risk associated with an investment, the greater the return investors expect
from it. A corollary to this idea is that investors want the highest return for a given level of risk or the lowest risk for a given level of return. When choosing between two
investments that have the same level of risk, investors prefer the
investment with the higher return. Alternatively, if two investments have the same expected return, investors prefer the less
risky alternative.
Students must have an intuitive understanding of a number of
important principles and concepts to successfully master the
finance curriculum. Throughout the book, we emphasize these
important concepts by presenting them in Building Intuition
boxes. These boxes provide a statement of an important finance
concept, such as the relation between risk and expected return,
along with an intuitive example or explanation to help the student
“get” the concept. These boxes help the students develop
finance intuition. Collectively the Building Intuition boxes cover
the most important concepts in corporate finance.
DECISION
MAKING
Choosing between Two Investments
You should not invest in either stock. The expected returns for both of
them are below the values predicted by the CAPM for investments with the same level
of risk. In other words, both would plot below the line in Exhibit 7.11. This implies that
they are both overpriced.

DECISION:
E X A M P L E
SITUATION: You are trying to decide whether to invest in one or both of two different stocks. Stock 1 has a beta of 0.8 and an expected return of 7.0 percent. Stock 2 has
a beta of 1.2 and an expected return of 9.5 percent. You remember learning about the
CAPM in school and believe that it does a good job of telling you what the appropriate
expected return should be for a given level of risk. Since the risk-free rate is 4 percent and
the market risk premium is 6 percent, the CAPM tells you that the appropriate expected
rate of return for an asset with a beta of 0.8 is 8.8 percent. The corresponding value for
an asset with a beta of 1.2 is 11.2 percent. Should you invest in either or both of these
stocks?
DECISION-MAKING EXAMPLES
Throughout the book, we emphasize the role of the financial manager as a decision maker.
To that end, twenty chapters include Decision-Making Examples. These examples, which
emphasize the decision-making process rather than computation, provide students with
experience in financial decision making. Each Decision-Making Example outlines a scenario
and asks the student to make a decision based on the information presented.

Describe the two components of a total holding period
return, and calculate this return for an asset.
The total holding period return on an investment consists of a
capital appreciation component and an income component. This
return is calculated using Equation 7.1. It is important to recognize that investors do not care whether they receive a dollar of
return through capital appreciation or as a cash dividend. Investors value both sources of return equally.

Explain the concept of diversification.
Diversification is reducing risk by investing in two or more assets whose values do not always move in the same direction at
the same time. Investing in a portfolio containing assets whose
prices do not always move together reduces risk because some
of the changes in the prices of individual assets offset each other.
This can cause the overall volatility in the value of an investor’s
portfolio to be lower than if it consisted of only a single asset.
Investors require greater returns for taking greater risk. They
prefer the investment with the highest possible return for a given
level of risk or the investment with the lowest risk for a given
level of return.
6
Discuss which type of risk matters to investors and why.
Investors care about only systematic risk. This is because they
can eliminate unsystematic risk by holding a diversified portfolio. Diversified investors will bid up prices for assets to the point
at which they are just being compensated for the systematic risks
they must bear.

7.2 The expected return for CFI based on today’s stock price is ($12 ⫺ $11)/$11 ⫽ 9.09 percent, which is
lower than 20 percent. Since the stock price one year from today is fixed, the only way that you will
generate a 20 percent return is if the price of the stock drops today. Consequently, the price of the

Critical Thinking Questions
7.1 Given that you know the risk as well as the expected return for two stocks, discuss what process
you might utilize to determine which of the two stocks is a better buy. You may assume that the
two stocks will be the only assets held in your portfolio.
7.2 What is the difference between the expected rate of return and the required rate of return? What
does it mean if they are different for a particular asset at a particular point in time?
7.3 Suppose that the standard deviation of the returns on the shares of stock at two different companies is exactly the same. Does this mean that the required rate of return will be the same for these
two stocks? How might the required rate of return on the stock of a third company be greater than
the required rates of return on the stocks of the first two companies even if the standard deviation
of the returns of the third company’s stock is lower?
7.4 The correlation between stocks A and B is 0.50, while the correlation between stocks A and C is
⫺0.5. You already own stock A and are thinking of buying either stock B or stock C. If you want
your portfolio to have the lowest possible risk, would you buy stock B or C? Would you expect the
stock you choose to affect the return that you earn on your portfolio?

New to This Edition
In revising Fundamentals of Corporate Finance we have improved the presentation
and organization of key topics, added important new content, updated the text to
reflect changes in market and business conditions since the first edition was written,
improved key in-chapter pedagogical features, added to the number and quality of
the end-of-chapter problem sets, and updated the ethics cases.
Improved Presentation and Organization
We have edited and extended discussions throughout the text in an effort to improve the pedagogical presentation of key topics. We also have rearranged the order of some material to improve the effectiveness of the presentation. For example,
the discussion of the stock market (Section 2.4 in the first edition) has been incorporated into the section on the market for stocks in Chapter 9 and new content on international stock markets has been added to this discussion. This change improves
the flow of the text and provides a more natural lead-in to the stock valuation concepts that are subsequently discussed in Chapter 9. Also, material on capital market
efficiency (Section 8.1 in the first edition) has being moved to the initial discussion of
financial markets in Chapter 2. This change introduces the student to the concept of
market efficiency earlier in the book and improves the focus of Chapter 8, which
discusses bond valuation and interest rates.
New Content
There have been numerous additions to the content of the book. Some of the most
noteworthy include the following. A new section on cash flows to investors has been
added to Chapter 3 immediately after the discussion of how the financial statements
tie together (Section 3.6 in the first edition). This new section helps students develop
an understanding of the sources and uses of investor cash flows in the context of
the discussion of financial statements. It also enables them to develop an intuitive
understanding of the importance of cash flows to investors prior to the chapters on
the time value of money, risk and return, capital budgeting, and valuation.
A discussion of the Sharpe Ratio has being incorporated into Section 7.4, immediately after the existing material on the coefficient of variation. This discussion
helps students develop a stronger intuition about the relation between risk and return earlier in the book.
An extensive discussion of leasing policy and analysis has been added as an appendix to the chapter on financial policy, Chapter 16. This section introduces students
to leasing as an alternative means of financing the acquisition of an asset, outlines the
conflicts that can arise in lease agreements and mechanisms for reducing the costs of
these conflicts, discusses why certain types of assets are more or less likely to be
leased, and summarizes how financial managers make buy vs. lease decisions. This
material is presented within the same agency framework used in Chapter 16 and can
be taught in conjunction with the rest of Chapter 16, or independently.
The discussion of options in Chapter 20 has been extended to include different types of options embedded in the debt and equity securities that firms issue.

NEW TO THIS EDITION
This discussion provides students with a more complete picture of the range of financial and non-financial options that are of concern to financial managers.
Current Financial Market and Business Information
Throughout the text, all financial market and business information for which more
current data are available have been updated. Not only have the exhibits been updated, but financial values such as interest rates, risk premia, and foreign currency
exchange rates have been updated throughout the discussions in text, in-text
examples, and end-of-chapter problems. In addition, 19 of the 21 chapter opener
vignettes are completely new. Eighteen of these examples are from 2010, and one is
from 2009. The remaining two opener vignettes have been edited to ensure that
they remain current. All of the chapter openers provide timely examples of how the
material covered in the chapter is relevant to financial decision-making.
In-Chapter Features
The Learning Objectives at the beginning of each chapter have been revised to
more fully reflect the important content in the associated sections of the chapters.
New Building Intuition Boxes have been added where appropriate and existing
Building Intuition Boxes have been edited to ensure clarity.
All Learning by Doing Applications have been reviewed and, where appropriate,
updated or replaced.
All existing Decision-Making Examples have been reviewed and updated where necessary. In addition, six new Decision-Making Examples have been added to the text.
The Summary of Learning Objectives and Key Equations at the end of each chapter
have been updated to reflect other changes in the chapter and to improve the pedagogical value of these features.
Refined and Extended Problem Sets
We have carefully edited the end-of-chapter questions and problems throughout the
book to ensure that the examples are current and clearly presented. In addition, new
questions and problems have been added to ensure appropriate coverage of key
concepts at all levels of difficulty. A total of 96 new questions and problems have
been added to the end-of-chapter problem sets, which brings the total number of
end-of-chapter questions and problems, including self-study problems and self-test
questions, for the entire text to 1,184.
Updated Ethics Cases and Their Organization
The Schwan Foods case has been replaced at the end of Chapter 11 with a new
case concerning the Unilever global Sustainable Living Plan. This case challenges
the student to think about how a sustainability plan can be consistent with stockholder value maximization. In addition, the case on affinity credit cards at the end
of Chapter 6 has been updated to reflect the effects of the Credit Card Act of 2009
and new data on the use of these cards as of 2010. The case on the Subprime Mortgage Market Meltdown has been moved from the end of Chapter 18 to the end of
Chapter 8 so that students can address the timely issues raised in this case earlier in
the course.
