Principles of corporate finance

Brealey, Principles of Corporate Finance 13e describes the theory and practice of corporate finance. We hardly need to explain why financial managers must master the practical aspects of their job, but we should spell out why down-to-earth managers need to bother with theory. Throughout this edition, the authors demonstrate how managers use financial theory to solve practical problems. They also explore what financial managers should do to increase company value. Some of the biggest changes in this edition were prompted by the tax changes enacted in the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed in December 2017.
