2014

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

This is an analytical subject that deals with the financial behaviour of firms, and examines finance theory, practice and financial management within the context of Australian companies. The methods by which financing and investments opportunities are evaluated by firms are discussed. Emphasis is placed on the ways in which the financial policies of companies, such as policies concerning investment, capital structure, cost of capital and dividend decision-making, are determined so as to maximise the value of the firm to its owners. The effect of various tax regimes on such decision-making is evaluated in detail. Specialist areas of corporate finance, such as corporate acquisition and finance leases, are also considered.
