Key Takeaways

Applies Net Present Value and breakeven analysis for investment evaluation

Original Description

In this course, you will understand the fundamental principle that money available now is worth more than the same amount in the future due to its potential earning capacity. Additionally, you will master the concepts of Net Present Value (NPV) and breakeven analysis, which allow different cash flows at different periods of time to be compared and summed to determine whether a project is expected to create value. You will apply these concepts by conducting investment evaluations and completing practical assessments on financial projections. This course is ideal for non-financial managers or professionals who seek to enhance their financial acumen to make better business decisions. No prior experience in finance is required. However, a basic understanding of business operations and strategic thinking will be beneficial.
