This crash course helps harried managers master the curriculum in a flash. Michael Muckian, a writer on business and finance and a veteran manager, demystifies high-level financial subjects and delivers quick "how-to" answers to tough on-the-job questions about the company's money.Muckian gives managers a variety of sound lessons -- from creating a savvy business plan to forecasting growth, direction, and long-term profitability; from asset/liability management to understanding growth cycles; and from deferrals and accruals to obtaining financing. Charts, tables, and real-world examples are included as well as an extensive glossary of financial and accounting terms.
