Principles of Finance with Excel, 2nd edition (now at Amazon)Like its predecessor, PFE2 integrates principles of finance with Excel. The first edition has been widely adopted for classroom use, both in introductory finance courses and as a text for computer applications in finance. The second edition, published by Oxford University Press in October 2010, has been updated, while maintaining the same integration between learning finance and doing Excel. All the Excel examples now refer to Excel 2007; compatibility with Excel 2003 and the new Excel 2010 has been maintained. PFE2 includes a disk with all the book examples, making it an ideal learning tool. |
