Oppimateriaalit

Brealey & Myers. Principles of Corporate Finance. There have during the years been published many editions. Among others in Åbo Akademi library there is a number of books. Also available in other libraries. This is the main course literature. The materials can also be found, at least to some extent I believe, in YouTube and other places in the net. This is ”a classic book” and the course main literature. However so that same things are to be found in other sources as well, but probably less compressed. Horngren et al.
