Important notes:
1. You cannot get a course grade higher than B without performing well on the in-class
exam.
2. You can take the in-class final and do well on all Problem Sets and other assignments
and still get a B. Your performance on the in-class final must be excellent to get a grade
higher than B.
Prior Grade Distribution
In prior semesters, these criteria have yielded about 20% As, a few B+s, 70% Bs and the rest
below B.
Books
Some readings and assignment material will be taken from the following books:
Antle, R. and S. Garstka, Second Edition, Financial Accounting, South-Western, 2004.
Antle, R. and S. Garstka, Second Edition, Financial Accounting: Masters Edition Questions
Exercises, Problems and Cases, South-Western, 2004.
Ross, S., R. Westerfield, and J. Jaffe, Tenth Edition, Corporate Finance, McGraw-Hill Irwin,
2013. (The material we rely on is not time sensitive, therefore there is no need to buy the
Eleventh Edition. Even though the page numbers for the readings are for the 10th edition, earlier
editions will also work fine if you translate the page numbers.)
The Antle-Garstka (AG) material is available through Classes*v2.
Classes*v2
Problems and cases not in any book, answers to assigned problems, review material, the course
schedule, and class notes can be obtained through Classes*v2.
Daily Assignments
The course schedule on the next pages contains detailed plans for our progress through the
material which provides a baseline for your expectations. Our exact path through the materials
will depend on the day-to-day progress of the class.
