Vorkenntnisse | This is an intermediate course in finance. If you wish to make the most of it, you should already know how (and why) to determine net present values, and you should be familiar with the terms debt, equity, expected return, standard deviation, correlation coefficient, and with the structure of the balance sheet. If all this is completely new to you, I recommend attending the modules “mat990 Mathematik für Ökonomen” “wir150 Statistik I” “wir082 Corporate Finance” before registering for this course. |
