Syllabus / What will i learn?

week 1: Decision Criteria

During this week, we develop a basic understanding of alternative decision criteria - Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Profitability, etc. - that are commonly used in the real world, with a focus on a critical evaluation of their strengths and weaknesses.

Week 2: Decision Making - A Deeper Look

Having looked at multiple decision criteria last week, we will focus this week on a more deeper and critical analysis of the most widely used Criteria. Again, we will use examples to evaluate all issues. This week will also include the first graded assignment.

week 3: Cash Flows

This week we will introduce the basics of cash flows, one of two critical inputs to any value-creating decision. Some exposure to Accounting will be helpful and Ross School of Business also offers a MOOC on the basics of Accounting.

week 4: Applications of Cash Flows

This week is all practice of cash flows. You are encouraged to use a detailed Cash Flow Template to create one for yourself. This will require putting together a bunch of information in a Spreadsheet and learn how to do some financial modeling. You will then have to submit the second and last graded assignment for this course that will help you evaluate your skills.
