| Sumario: | This book introduces key concepts in finance, accounting, and management to project managers who have engineering backgrounds. It focuses these basic concepts on issues of measuring and managing enterprise value. After defining enterprise value, the book explains the ways and means of measurement. It then takes up financial measurement, describing and analyzing the typologies of financial indicators while illustrating their advantages and disadvantages. After focusing on measuring enterprise value, the second section takes up managing that value. Like the first, it pursues a double view: using indicators for internal control while employing them to analyze other companies. Coverage includes: how to assess the financial needs of companies in relation to their financial goals and mechanisms (e.g., equity, debt, and hybrid); key information and indicators for assessing the ability of enterprises to create value; and the profitability sources of different business units. -- |
