Summary

This casebook contains sections on accounting basics, the time value of money, short and long term debt, preferred stock, dividends, stock subscriptions, merger financing, government securities, structured finance, derivative instruments, retirement plans, insurance, hedge funds and private equity. It reviews recent concerns raised by Enron and other corporate scandals resulting in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which adopted a new regulatory structure for the accounting profession and imposed new obligations on lawyers involved in rendering advice on corporate finance. It also examines problems raised by complex financial instruments devised by corporate lawyers before passage of that act.
