Course Description
“Why should I study finance?” As a student, you might be asking yourself this question right
now. To answer this question, we need to ask: What role does finance play in the successful
operation of a firm? As we will see in this subject that how financial management can help any
business to provide better products to its customers at lower prices, pay higher salaries to its
employees, and still provide greater returns to investors who put up the funds needed to form
and operate the business. Because the economy, both national and worldwide, consists of cus-
tomers, employees, and investors, sound financial management contributes to the well-being of
both individuals and the general population. Financial management is, in a real sense, the cor-
nerstone of the enterprise system, good financial management is vitally important to the eco-
nomic health of business firms, and hence to the nation and the world. Because of its impor-
tance, finance should be widely and thoroughly understood, but this is easier said than done.
The field is relatively complex, and it is undergoing constant change in response to shifts in
economic conditions. All of this makes finance stimulating and exiting but also challenging
and sometimes perplexing.
