Three credit hours. The catalog describes financial decision-making in a corporate environment, covering the time value of money, capital budgeting, cost of capital, working capital management, and financial instruments issued by the firm.
45 completed semester hours, STAT 2500 or an approved statistics combination, ECONOM 1014, and ECONOM 1015 or 1051H. Accounting (ACCTCY 2027, 2037, or 2137H) can be taken at the same time.
Statistics is on the list, so the course assumes you can handle averages, variance, and basic probability when risk and return come up.
Cost of capital is the topic that pulls the others together, so the WACC guide and calculator are the best places to see how the pieces connect. The NPV guide covers the capital budgeting that comes first.
Bring your slides, problem sets, and your last midterm. We work from your actual course.
If you take accounting at the same time, you meet balance sheet ideas in finance before accounting has covered them. We fill in the gaps you need so the finance doesn't stall.
This is where the earlier topics join up. Pricing bonds and stocks gives you the cost of debt and equity, and those become the rate used to judge projects. We draw the chain so each step has a reason.
Bonds, preferred stock, and common stock each carry different rights and costs. Exam questions test whether you can tell them apart, so we practice with side-by-side comparisons.
FINANC 3000 is the corporate finance course in the Missouri catalog and sits behind 45 completed hours, economics, and statistics, so it usually arrives in the second or third year. Your degree audit shows where it falls for your major.
Send me what you're stuck on: a problem set, slides, your last midterm, a practice exam, last week's quiz.
You walk me through a problem out loud. It usually takes a few minutes to hear where the reasoning goes sideways. We fix that piece and rebuild from there, so you know why each step works.
The real test: a fresh problem with new numbers and different wording, the way a midterm would ask it, and you solve it yourself. I don't complete assignments or hand over answers. You leave able to do the work.

I have a B.S. in Business with a finance specialization from Liberty University, earned summa cum laude in three years, and a Master’s in International Economics and Finance from Brandeis.

The catalog lists ACCTCY 2027, 2037, or 2137H as a corequisite, so yes, it can be taken at the same time.
STAT 2500, or STAT 2200 plus one of STAT 1200, 1300, or 1400, per the catalog.
Yes, it's a named topic in the course description, along with capital budgeting and cost of capital.
Tutoring on concepts and practice problems is generally fine, but policies on graded work vary by course. I don't complete graded assignments. Check your syllabus's collaboration policy, and if you're unsure, ask your professor.
