Functional Finance by Eric M. Chen (ISBN 978-1-934048-04-7)
This book is a practical, hands-on guide to finance from the perspective of a business manager seeking to make educated business decisions. Starting from the basic premise that finance can only be fully appreciated with a concurrent understanding of strategy, this text examines information sources, navigates through the Form 10-K, analyzes financial statements, applies ratio analysis, and offers forecasting and valuation methodologies. In doing so, this text demystifies finance and opens a window into secrets formerly reserved for Wall Street training programs. The TJX Companies is featured as a running example in order to demonstrate the skills to be practiced throughout this text.
