This course develops your ability to use economic decision tools in a market environment. Finance answers two market questions: what is it worth and do the benefits of an action exceed the cost of taking that action? Making good economic decisions involves integrating behavioral, economic, accounting and political information into a qualitative and quantitative decision process. This valuation approach is essential for all market participants, including investors, governments and non-profits.
