Over deze cursus
As from 2024-2025 scheduled in Quartile 2 timeslot B
The first part of this course builds upon the material taught in 1CV10. In particular, students learn how to create and analyze the cash flow statement. Besides, they learn how to use financial ratios to analyze and interpret the performance of a company.
In the second part of the course, students learn various (quantitative) methods and techniques to facilitate proper financial decision making. We start with techniques to evaluate deterministic cash flows streams. In particular, students learn how to work with the net present value and internal rate of return. Thereafter, students apply these techniques to value fixed income securities such as loans, mortgages and bonds. They also use these techniques to value firms, discuss how to structure firm capital and execute proper capital budgeting. Thereafter, students learn and apply the mean-variance model of Nobel laureate Markowitz and the capital asset pricing model. These models introduce (one-period) uncertainty and illustrate the trade-off between risk and return. Finally, students learn the basics of (financial) options, and how to use them to manage risk.
Two group assignments are part of this course. These assignments will deal with realistic business problems.
