We quickly move to a discussion about financial statements and corporate performance helping our understanding of the critical roles played by accountants. Thereafter, we examine important concepts in detail; including, the time value of money, understanding value, understanding risk and capital budgeting.

The fact that money (and understanding money) really matters in business and all managers need to understand issues like cashflow and profit might depress you, but it is true. Financial viability of customers? Deciding on the likely financial viability of a project? Reporting to shareholders about performance? Does the word “sustainable” appear in a finance dictionary? All questions we will try and address.

IB557A: ECONOMICS FOR FINANCE

15 credits

Level 5

Second Term

Economics is subject within social sciences whose objective is to study how to allocate scarce resources, such as oil fields, bread, cars, haircuts, and financial capital. If there was an unlimited amount of resources, then economics would not be needed. Among other things, financial assets are scarce resources as well. That is one of the reasons why finance is relevant to economics. Conversely, economics is relevant to finance as it enables us to better understand how financial markets function. The objective of this course is to provide you with a sound understanding of the main economic theories and to demonstrate their relevance to finance.
