—What Corporate Finance Instructors are Saying
Parrino build’s students intuition and understanding of tough finance concepts through many ways, my favorite is the ’Building Intuition’ boxes in the book. It’s often and relevant to the concept.

My students are problem solvers after using Parrino. The Learn–by Doing applications help to supplement what I’m teaching and actually SHOW a student how to do a problem, followed by practice.

—What Corporate Finance Instructors are Saying
I like how clearly the information is presented. The chapter was easy to read and understand. It also provided valuable resources that helped me understand how to do the problems, like the Learn–by–Doing Applications. I could get through my homework with the help of these step–by–step problems in the book!"

–Student Jami Lewis, Bowling Green State University
I would recommend this text to my professor because I like the way the information is broken down and presented. It is an easy and enjoyable read. The best are the problems. I like the way the solution steps are provided, including the thought process behind arriving at the answer in the Learn–By–Doings.
