wrote Essentials of Corporate Finance, we thought there might be a small niche for a briefer book that really focused on what students with widely varying backgrounds and interests needed to carry away from an introductory finance course We were wrong There was a huge niche! What we learned is that our text closely matches the needs of instructors and faculty at hundreds of schools across the country As a result, the growth we have experienced through the first seven editions of Essentials has far exceeded anything we thought possible With the eighth edition of Essentials of Corporate Finance, we have continued to refine our focus on our target audience, which is the undergraduate student taking a core course in business or corporate finance This can be a tough course to teach One reason is that the class is usually required of all business students, so it is not uncommon for a majority of the students to be nonfinance majors In fact, this may be the only finance course many of them will ever have With this in mind, our goal in Essentials is to convey the most important concepts and principles at a level that is approachable for the widest possible audience To achieve our goal, we have worked to distill the subject down to its bare essentials (hence, the name of this book), while retaining a decidedly modern approach to finance We have always maintained that the subject of corporate finance can be viewed as the working of a few very powerful intuitions We also think that understanding the “why” is just as important, if not more so, than understanding the “how,” especially in an introductory course Based on the gratifying market feedback we have received from our previous editions, as well as from our other text, Fundamentals of Corporate Finance (now in its tenth edition), many of you agree By design, this book is not encyclopedic As the table of contents indicates, we have a total of 18 chapters Chapter length is about 30 pages, so the text is aimed squarely at a single-term course, and most of the book can be realistically covered in a typical semester or quarter Writing a book for a one-term course necessarily means some picking and choosing, with regard to both topics and depth of coverage Throughout, we strike a balance by introducing and covering the essentials (there’s that word again!) while leaving some more specialized topics to follow-up courses The other things we have always stressed, and have continued to improve with this edition, are readability and pedagogy Essentials is written in a relaxed, conversational style that invites the students to join in the learning process rather than being a passive information absorber We have found that this approach dramatically increases students’ willingness to read and learn on their own Between larger and larger class sizes and the ever-growing demands on faculty time, we think this is an essential (!) feature for a text in an introductory course Throughout the development of this book, we have continued to take a hard look at what is truly relevant and useful In doing so, we have worked to downplay purely theoretical issues and minimize the use of extensive and elaborate calculations to illustrate points that are either intuitively obvious or of limited practical use As a result of this process, three basic themes emerge as our central focus in writing Essentials of Corporate Finance: An Emphasis on Intuition We always try to separate and explain the principles at work on a commonsense, intuitive level before launching into any specifics The underlying vi ideas are discussed first in very general terms and then by way of examples that illustrate in more concrete terms how a financial manager might proceed in a given situation A Unified Valuation Approach We treat net present value (NPV) as the basic concept underlying corporate finance Many texts stop well short of consistently integrating this important principle The most basic and important notion, that NPV represents the excess of market value over cost, often is lost in an overly mechanical approach that emphasizes computation at the expense of comprehension In contrast, every subject we cover is firmly rooted in valuation, and care is taken throughout to explain how particular decisions have valuation effects A Managerial Focus Students shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that financial management concerns management We emphasize the role of the financial manager as decision maker, and we stress the need for managerial input and judgment We consciously avoid “black box” approaches to finance, and, where appropriate, the approximate, pragmatic nature of financial analysis is made explicit, possible pitfalls are described, and limitations are discussed Today, as we prepare to once again enter the market, our goal is to stick with and build on the principles that have brought us this far However, based on an enormous amount of feedback we have received from you and your colleagues, we have made this edition and its package even more flexible than previous editions We offer flexibility in coverage and pedagogy by providing a wide variety of features in the book to help students learn about corporate finance We also provide flexibility in package options by offering the most extensive collection of teaching, learning, and technology aids of any corporate finance text Whether you use just the textbook, or the book in conjunction with other products, we believe you will find a combination with this edition that will meet your current as well as your changing needs Stephen A Ross Randolph W Westerfield Bradford D Jordan vii Organization of the Text W e designed Essentials of Corporate Finance to be as flexible and modular as possible There are a total of nine parts, and, in broad terms, the instructor is free to decide the particular sequence Further, within each part, the first chapter generally contains an overview and survey Thus, when time is limited, subsequent chapters can be omitted Finally, the sections placed early in each chapter are generally the most important, and later sections frequently can be omitted without loss of continuity For these reasons, the instructor has great control over the topics covered, the sequence in which they are covered, and the depth of coverage Just to get an idea of the breadth of coverage in the eighth edition of Essentials, the following grid presents for each chapter some of the most significant new features, as well as a few selected chapter highlights Of course, in every chapter, figures, opening vignettes, boxed features, and in-chapter illustrations and examples using real companies have been thoroughly updated as well In addition, the end-of-chapter material has been completely revised Chapters Selected Topics Benefits to Users PART ONE Overview of Financial Management Chapter Updated opener on “Say on Pay.” Highlights important development regarding the very current question of appropriate executive compensation Updated corporate ethics box Describes ethical issues in the context of recent insider trading scandals Goal of the firm and agency problems Stresses value creation as the most
