This book provides a digestible but comprehensive theory of our socioeconomic system, which condenses its immense complexity into simplified representations. The result both illuminates humanity's history and suggests ways forward for policies today, in areas as diverse as poverty reduction and tax compliance. Arnold and S. Kyle, developed in collaboration by Athabasca University and Lyryx, is intended for the second of two in Intermediate Financial Accounting courses.
It presumes that students have already completed the Introductory Financial Accounting, and the first Intermediate Financing Accounting course. Topics that are covered in Advanced Financial Accounting courses, such as consolidations and foreign exchange, are not included here. For those requiring preparation for CPA designation, competencies as outlined by the CPA are addressed in this textbook.

This book is intended for upper level undergraduate courses and introductory graduate courses in mathematical finance for a single semester. This book can also be used for self-studying students with proper prerequisite knowledge. The only prerequisite for this book is one year courses of calculus.
The cases may also be used as reinforcement of theory in an intermediate finance course. The purpose of the casebook is to reinforce and expand upon the theoretical material learned in the introductory undergraduate business finance course.
The cases are concise directed and designed to generate discussion, focusing upon three elements: industry and company setting; the underlying financial theory; and the particular decision at hand, giving students the opportunity to make decisions based on situations that closely replicate decisions faced by practicing managers. The cases are considered directed because end-of-case questions are included that highlight the major decision points that need to be addressed, helping students come to a final business decision.
Tempered by real-life cases and actual market structures, An Introduction to Financial Markets: A Quantitative Approach accentuates theory through quantitative modeling whenever and wherever necessary. It focuses on the lessons learned from timely subject matter such as the impact of the recent subprime mortgage storm, the collapse of LTCM, and the harsh criticism on risk management and innovative finance. The book also provides the necessary foundations in stochastic calculus and optimization, alongside financial modeling concepts that are illustrated with relevant and hands-on examples.
It then moves on to sections covering fixed income assets, equity portfolios, derivatives, and advanced optimization models. Volume 1B covers the economics of financial markets: the saving and investment decisions; the valuation of equities, derivatives, and fixed income securities; and market microstructure. Edited by Rajnish Mehra, this volume focuses on the equity risk premium puzzle, a term coined by Mehra and Prescott in which encompasses a number of empirical regularities in the prices of capital assets that are at odds with the predictions of standard economic theory.
This practical introduction outlines methods for analysing actuarial and financial risk at a fairly elementary mathematical level suitable for graduate students, actuaries and other analysts in the industry who could use simulation as a problem solver. Numerous exercises with R-code illustrate the text. This book examines sustainable wealth formation and dynamic decision-making.
The global economy experienced a veritable meltdown of asset markets in the years , where many funds were overexposed to risky returns and suffered considerable losses.
On the other hand, the long-term upswing in the stock market since has led to asset price booms and some new, but also uneven, wealth formation. In this book a broader set of constraints and guidelines for asset management and wealth accumulation is developed.
The authors investigate how wealth formation and the proper management of financial funds can help to adequately buffer income risk and obtain sufficient risk-free income at a later stage of life, while also being socially and environmentally sustainable. The book explores behavioral and institutional rules for decision-making that reflect such constraints and guidelines, without necessarily being optimal in the narrow sense.
The authors explain the need for such a dynamic decision-making and dynamic re-balancing of portfolios, by putting forward dynamic programming as an approach to dynamic decision-making that can allow sustainable wealth accumulation and dynamic asset allocation to be successfully integrated. This book provides a clear and comprehensive treatment of asset accumulation and dynamic portfolio models with an emphasis on long term and sustainable wealth formation.
An important concern in public debate is the sustainability of our economy and this book employs cutting edge quantitative techniques and models to highlight important facts that cannot be disputed under any reasonable assumptions. It has the potential to become a standard reference for both academic researchers and quantitatively trained practitioners.
The former will find intellectually rigorous discussions and innovative solutions. The latter may find a few of the concepts a bit challenging. Yet, theory and technology are there to help simplify the work of those who worry about what time it is rather than how to make a watch but they do need a watch.
For all the suffering that it has caused, the global financial crisis provides a unique opportunity to review what we know or thought we knew about finance. It will challenge and enliven the teaching of finance for years to come. The third edition of Intermediate Financial Theory is affected accordingly. While our own goals for the text have not changed, many new topics have been added and many examples have been taken from recent experience.
The task of reviewing the entire material in light of the financial crisis is, however, a work in progress and one that cannot be adequately undertaken within the context of periodic revisions of a textbook of reasonable length.
