Fin 553 Valuation and Analysis

Valuation and Analysis extends the financial accounting and corporate finance topics introduced in the core graduate accounting and finance courses, and uses those topics to further the understanding how to value a business or investment. This is a practical and applied course that connects accounting and business analysis with finance issues into a systematic and process-driven approach for valuation of both public and private firms. The course uses a blend of lectures, discussions, cases and projects to learn the valuation process. Topics covered include financial statement analysis, business strategy and forecasting, due diligence, discounted cash flow analysis and public versus private firm issues.
