ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE FOR TECHNOLOGY
ACCT & FINANCE FOR TECH
An exploration of the central concepts of corporate finance for those who already have some basic knowledge of finance and accounting.

These concepts are analyzed in relation to agency problems: market domination, risk profile, and risk resolution; and market efficiency or the lack thereof. The validity of analytic tools is tested on issues such as highly leveraged transactions, hybrid securities, volatility in initial public offerings, mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, acquisition and control premiums, corporate restructurings, and sustainable and unsustainable market inefficiencies.
