The goal of this course is to have students work in teams to prepare and communicate a detailed valuation of a publicly traded company using publicly available information.
Students are asked to analyse corporate performance, project cash flows, and value a firm's financial claims.
Participants apply insights and skills taken from past courses and their work experiences to understand an existing business well enough to put a dollar value on it.
This intensive approach of 'learning by doing' provides a lasting financial framework for investment and corporate managers.
The course is a mixture of lectures/discussions and hands-on computer work.
Students are advised that they are highly recommended to undertake Corporate Finance and Financial Statement Analysis before taking this course.
