Course Objective:

The objective of this course is to apply the techniques and theories of corporate financial management covered in pervious courses to real world cases. Advanced
corporate finance topics will also be covered. This is a case study course in that the students are expected to study, analyze and find solutions for the assigned cases
and present the results to the instructor and other class members.

Required Materials:

1) Cases in Financial Management, by Joseph M. Sulock and John S. Dunkelberg, second edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

2) Any financial management textbook.

Course Grading:

Final grades are assigned based on the following:

Case analysis and presentation
A final Exam
Mini cases
A project
Class participation and discussion

The Cases:

The finance cases will provide an opportunity for students to apply the tools, techniques and concepts of financial management to real business situations. A major
part of the exercise is to analyze the cases and decided how to approach the problems and find solution(s) for them. The cases provide sufficient material for this
purpose, but your challenge is to interpret and organize the material in a logical manner, and to sort out the significant from unimportant.

Requirements:

Each student will be responsible for the following:

1. To be a member of a team, which will prepare formal presentation and report on, assigned cases.

2. To participate actively in class discussion.

Team Presentations:

Each member of the team should participate equally in the preparation for and presentation of the class presentation and submitted reports. A single grade will be
assigned to each member covering both the presentation and the report. Non-participation will result in 0 score. The presentation is as important as the write-up and
finding solutions for the case.

Your team presentation will be a formal presentation to the class as a whole. You should assume the role of a consulting team making a presentation to your client
company concerning solutions to the problems that they are facing.

After you have met as a team to review the case materials and to decide on an approach to the case questions, you may want to schedule a meeting with the
instructor to discuss aspects of the case and questions that may not be clear.

THE CLASS WILL ASK QUESTIONS DURING THE PRESENTATION AND AT THE END. ALL GORUP MEMEBERS ARE RESPONSIBLE TO
ANSWER QUESTIONS ON THE SOLUTIONS, CONCEPTS, ASSUMPTIONS, CALCULATIONS, ETC
