Book Description:

Financial Analysis with Microsoft Excel 2002, 3rd Edition, is designed to teach learners to use Microsoft and uses Excel 2002 to build spreadsheets to solve financial problems. It starts with the basics in Chapter 1 and quickly moves into more advanced features of Excel. The book covers basic financial statements, ratio analysis, forecasting, time value of money, capital budgeting, and risk and diversification. Many learners will use this book and learn very valuable and highly marketable, skills.

This is an excellent self-study book. You learn MS Excel and Financial Analysis at the same time. You can learn (by doing) the construction of financial statements & cash budgets. For those interested in financial economics the book teaches about the Capital Asset Pricing model, Return On Equity, Net Present Value and the Cost of Capital. It even contains a section on forecasting which is invaluable to those looking to do rather than read about it. Best of all it shows you how to do this stuff with a readily available desktop application(excel). Furthermore, you learn not just how to input the authors formulas but how to build your own using the IF, AVERAGE, TREND functions etc. etc.

The best thing about this book is that you don't just read dry definitions of finance and economic arcana, but practice it as you go along. This really helps to build your skills!
