Prereq: ACC 302 and a grade of B or better in FIN 410.
The rapidly increasing computational power of personal computers in combination with the development of dynamic software solutions for computational needs have in the recent few years brought the advantage of fairly sophisticated financial models into the reach of a broader audience. The increasing flow of financial information is converting the skill of quantitative modeling using computers from an advantage into a necessity. This course is designed to provide students with the skills necessary to apply modern financial theories to real world applications using advanced spreadsheet and visual-basic programming tools.
