Introduction to Finance Using LinkedIn Learning

Jim Stice, PhD Earl Kay Stice, PhD

Finance is all around us: deciding what to buy, where to get the money, and how to manage it once you have it. This resource introduces students to that world through LinkedIn Learning videos and real-life examples, with no prerequisites and no specialized knowledge required. Students study financial statements and ratio analysis, cash flows, short-term financial management, and forecasting, then explore risk and return, the CAPM, capital structure, and the cost of capital. They learn how securities markets and financial institutions work, master the time value of money and capital budgeting with NPV and IRR, and finish by valuing companies using price multiples and discounted cash flow analysis. Students leave with a broad, practical understanding of finance as it exists in the real world.
