Case Studies in Finance
Case Studies in Finance links managerial decisions to capital markets and the expectations of investors. At the core of almost all of the cases is a valuation task that requires students to look to financial markets for guidance in resolving the case problem. The focus on value helps managers understand the impact of the firm on the world around it. These cases also invite students to apply modern information technology to the analysis of managerial decisions. The cases may be taught in many different combinations. The eight-part sequence indicated by the table of contents relates to course designs used at the authors' schools. Each part of the casebook suggests a concept module, with a particular orientation.

Over 50 cases with great narrative and illustrative material. If there ever is the case of too much illustrative material - this one's it (kidding, there's no such thing possible in my book).
Takeouts:
- Great parts on DD.
- IPO pricing insights incl. fixed reallowance.
- Restructuring (leveraged, etc)
- Risk-return tradeoffs (in-depth analysis)
- Repurchases
- M&A&B
- Alternatives valuation, forecasting and strategic decision making are the best-covered topics throughout the 53 cases ofmurder & mayhem financial experimenting and growth. Lots of longitudinal overviews.
