Financial, Commercial, and Mortgage Mathematics and Their Applications, 2nd Edition (Hardcover, 2nd Revised edition)

Ideal for college students in intermediate finance courses, this book uniquely applies mathematical formulas to teach the underpinnings of financial and lending decisions, covering common applications in real estate, capital budgeting, and commercial loans. An updated and expanded version of the time-honored classic text on financial math, this book provides, in one place, a complete and practical treatment of the four primary venues for finance: commercial lending, financial formulas, mortgage lending, and resource allocation or capital budgeting techniques. With an emphasis on understanding the principles involved rather than blind reliance on formulas, the book provides rigorous and thorough explanations of the mathematical calculations used in determining the time value of money, valuation of loans by commercial banks, valuation of mortgages, and the cost of capital and capital budgeting techniques for single as well as mutually exclusive projects. This new edition devotes an entire chapter to a method of evaluating mutually exclusive projects without resorting to any imposed conditions. Two chapters not found in the previous edition address special topics in finance, including a novel and innovative way to approach amortization tables and the time value of money for cash flows when they increase geometrically or arithmetically. This new edition also features helpful how-to sections on Excel applications at the end of each appropriate chapter. Lays the foundation of all the topics that are typically covered in a financial management textbook or class Demonstrates how the mastery of a few basic concepts-such as the time value of money under all possible situations-allows for a precise understanding of more complex topics in finance Describes how all advanced capital budgeting techniques can be reduced to the simplest technique-the payback period method Examines traditional financial techniques using simple interest rate and accounting rate of return methods to conclusively show how these practices are now defunct
