Schaum's Outline of Financial Management, Third Edition (Schaum's Outlines)

I've used some version of this book in my corporate finance classes (graduate and undergrad) for almost 20 years now. It's a comprehensive problem set, and it works with just about every finance textbook. This is the best review guide out there. And it's cheap, too. I've gotten some real positive comments about this in my teaching reviews from students, too.I think some folks may misunderstand the value of the book. It's valuable because it helps YOU learn to work problems and gives YOU practice working problems and learning concepts in context. The focus is on YOU. YOU working problems. YOU applying concepts. Unfortunately, that seems to be missed by some.This book has almost everything you need to learn the basics of finance at an undergraduate level. And it can't hurt for those of you who are coming into an MBA or MS Finance program with a less-than-ideal background from your undergrad "experience." A tremendous amount of knowledge per invested $.

This book is filled with so may practice examples. I was able to practice these problems before my midterm and the step-by-step instructions helped me understand the material. After using this resource, I got an A on my test and would recommend to any student in a Business Finance class, especially Grad students. Very helpful! Great buy!

From a novice who wants an overview of what Financial Management is all about and what ALL it includes, along with solved problems, this book is a great reference. It is expected for you to know/understand the concepts, without much of visual aids. Because of its simplicity, it is also a good, quick reference desk copy. I plan to use the book at an undergraduate level (third and fourth year) in 2012. I have liked and used Schaum series book for decades.

Very good!!

This book is so useful for business, finance, and MBA students. The first time taking my Financial Management course I almost failed and dropped the course before it ruined my GPA. I picked up this book, read through it and used it for reference the next time around and volia, made an A+! So much gratitude!

Purchased a new copy of this text. It areived 5 minutes ago. The delivery packaging was not damaged, but the plastic that wrapped the new book was pre-torn within the delivery bag was opened. The top edge of the paperback is also bent, pressed, and slightly water damaged.

As always, the product was delivered on time.

If I could I would give this book zero (0) stars. This book was written by two PhDs one was a CPA), in its 3rd edition and is well organized. Although there is some very good information in it, I found calculation and formula errors. I was using the book for an online, college Time Value of Money class and the errors made my learning process a little harder. Because this is an outline type book and because it is in its 3rd edition, I didn't expect to find any errors.

Good preparation for my exams. lots of worked out examples

A good book with many examples. It is short on concepts, however, it is relevant for someone who wants to self learn this topic. Can be complemented by good corporate finance theory books.
