This software consists of FAST Workbooks that
are based on the textbook "Corporate Finance" by Ross, Westerfield and Jaffe.
These FAST Workbooks can help you work through over 40 end of chapter questions. Each worksheet contains two sections: the question
and the solution. The question section is simply a restatement of
the question from your textbook. It contains all the assumptions and details for each question in the book.
Therefore, you don't necessarily need your textbook
to work on a template question (although you might need the chapter for
reference). The solution section contains key facts and a format that makes it
easier for you to organize a solution. In some cases, Microsoft Excel formulas and
functions have been entered to save you the time it takes to develop your own formulas or
to work with financial tables and a handheld calculator. However, in most cases,
you have to enter the formulas, functions, and data to
solve the question. In addition to this, each
worksheet has been designed with page layouts for good-looking reports that you
can submit to your professor.
Data input areas are shaded in yellow. Moreover, custom buttons
are provided along the top of the worksheet, which allow easy workbook
navigation, one-click printing of
multiple worksheet reports, and access to the Help and the publisher's web site.
