  • Section 2 : Financial Analysis 1 Lectures 00:08:43

    • Lecture 1 :
    • Financial Analysis
      Financial analysis is a core skill in finance. It involves analyzing and interpreting financial information to evaluate performance or set future expectations. In this lesson, I’ll give an overview, but you should also consider taking our in-depth financial literacy course to supplement this lesson.
  • Section 3 : Cash Forecast 1 Lectures 00:02:50

    • Lecture 1 :

      Finance often trying to predict the future. The cash flow forecast is the foundation of many types of financial analysis. In this lesson, we give an overview of what's involved.
  • Section 4 : Present Value 1 Lectures 00:12:51

    • Lecture 1 :
    • Present Value
      In finance, we always want to ensure we are comparing apple-to-apples. One way we do this is to calculate the present value of different types of opportunities. This puts all the different projects on an even footing. It's an economic perspective of value, not an accounting perspective. In this lesson, I’ll teach you the basics of calculating present value.
  • Section 5 : Future Value 1 Lectures 00:07:07

    • Lecture 1 :
    • Future Value

  • Section 6 : Rate of Return and Adding Debt 1 Lectures 00:13:57

    • Lecture 1 :
    • Rate of Return and Adding Debt
      Things get a little more interesting in this lesson. I begin with an overview of what is debt and equity and discuss how the rate of return for these instruments is determined. Then I will talk about how debt, when used responsibly, can be used to leverage returns or minimize the cost of capital. This is one key way that corporate finance can add significant value to the organization.
  • Section 7 : Risk Management and Derivatives 1 Lectures 00:12:39

    • Lecture 1 :
    • Risk Management and Derivatives
      Risk management can be a very complicated topic, but in this lesson, let's see if I can make it simpler for you to understand. Even some finance professionals shudder when you mention the idea of a derivative instrument. Let's face it, they've got a bit of a bad rep for the role they played in the last Great Recession. However, these instruments are another important corporate finance tool for managing and mitigating financial risks to a business. So let's not get scared off by them. Instead, let's see if we can sort them out together.
