Adopted Text

The textbook for Busi 242-50863 Fundamentals of Finance is:

This is available from Cengage.com. Use ISBN 1133905161 to find. $78.95 plus shipping and Sales Tax

It will be also available in the College Bookstore. The Bookstore also offers Rental. Contact the Bookstore for Rental information as it is not posted on WebAdvisor.

An e-Book is available direct from Southwestern/Cengage:

CFIN3 via APLIA & Coursemate with eBook (Instant Access): $65 direct to student.

It is rarely cost-effective to buy a used textbook for this class because used books do not include an Aplia license. The combined cost of a used textbook plus the $70 Aplia fee (Cengage told me today 1/15/13 that this price is $134) is usually greater than buying the bundled version that includes Aplia. If you rent make sure it includes APLIA.

 

  Business Calculator

In addition to the Textbook you will need a Business Calculator. Aplia has instructions on the use of the HP 10IIb which is the recommended calculator for the class.
