This course intends to provide students the ability to analyze businesses focusing on their yielding cash flow. To conduct more reasonable analyses, the appropriate balance between quantitative analyses (e.g., financial ratio analyses) and qualitative analyses (e.g., strategy analyses) is essential. The students will learn how to combine these two. For the sake of a better understanding of the theories needed and the techniques in practice, cases on IFRS -adopted and Japanese Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) –adopted companies will be provided in the proper classes.
