Summary
"This book describes the theory and practice of corporate finance. We hardly need to explain why financial managers have to master the practical aspects of their job, but we should spell out why down-to-earth managers need to bother with theory. Managers learn from experience how to cope with routine problems. But the best managers are also able to respond to change. To do so you need more than time honored rules of thumb; you must understand why companies and financial markets behave the way they do. In other words, you need a theory of finance"--

Summary
This volume contains eight empirical papers that examine corporate governance from a number of different perspectives. Howe et al investigate how governance can influence short- and long-term performance in the case of Special Purpose Acquisition Companies; Javakhadze et al analyze limits to convergence in international corporate governance practices; Barak and Lauterbach focus on the private benefits of control; and Dong examines the relation between the discipline of options and corporate debt and the design of executive compensation. Jiang et al measure the effect of R & D expenditures on bondholders; Gondhalekar et al examine the capital market response to financial restatements; Al-Khouri reports robust evidence that privately owned banks are more risky than government-owned banks; and Luo and Jackson conclude that the positive relationship between tunneling and executive compensation implies personal benefits for controlling shareholders at the expense of minority shareholders.

Summary
The cost of capital concept is widely used in business decision-making. The current theory and estimates for measurement of cost of capital are derived from the seminal Modigliani-Miller analyses. This book generalizes this framework to include non-debt tax shields (e.g., depreciation) and default considerations. It develops several new results and shows how better cost of capital and marginal tax rate estimates can be generated. The unified cost of capital theory presented in the book is illustrated graphically and with comprehensive numerical examples. This book will be of great interest to practicing managers, academics, governmental agencies and private companies that generate cost of capital estimates for public consumption.

Summary
This monograph represents a unified coherent perspective of financial markets and the theory of corporate finance. The Fisher model is used in corporate finance texts to note the foundations of the net present value rule, but has not been developed further in textbooks as a perspective for students of the finance discipline. This book articulates corporate finance from a common perspective and model: by generalizing the Fisher model to include risks, it is possible to exposit and prove the classic corporate finance theorems and to establish a common foundation for the discipline. The classic t.

Summary
In these turbulent financial and economic times, the importance of sound investment decisions becomes a critical variable in underpinning future business success and, indeed, survival. The difficulties currently encountered globally by firms in both raising finance and making predictions concerning the future economic environment raise the already prominent role of capital budgeting in the arena of financial decision making. This book is intended for both practicing managers who require a thorough knowledge of the principles of making investment decisions in the real world and for students undertaking financial courses, whether at undergraduate, MBA, or professional levels. The subject matter encompasses relevant aspects of the investment decision, varying from a basic introduction, to the appraisal techniques available, to placing investment decisions within both strategic and international contexts, and coverage of recent developments including real options, value at risk, and environmental investments.
