Hopeful Author

Happy New Year everyone!

I recently set up a webpage were I posted some of my works: Research papers, syllabi, mini-lectures, and sample consultancy proposals. The said webpage is at http://independent.academia.edu/FranciscoCDeLaCruzJr/Teaching-Documents.

In two or three years I hope to produce a book that contains a comprehensive coverage of all my lectures in entrepreneurial financial management. I've already envisioned the cover of that book and posted it herewith.




More importantly, as of this writing I envision that the book will include the following topics, at the very least:

     Part 1 - Introduction
  1. Objectives
  2. The Role of the Entrepreneur
  3. The Role of the Accounting and Finance Manager
  4. The Scope of Accounting and Financial Management
  5. Strategic Financial Management
     Part 2 – The Financial Statements
  1. Basic Financial Statement – The Income Statement
  2. Basic Financial Statement – The Balance Sheet
  3. Financial Statement Analyses
    1. Vertical Analysis (Breakdown Analysis)
    2. Horizontal Analysis (Trend Analysis)
    3. Ratio Analysis
    4. Comparative/Competitive Financial Analysis
  4. Financial Control
    1. Budgeting
    2. Sensitivity Analysis (Scenario Forecasting)
    3. Performance Analysis
    4. Cashflow Planning
    5. Contribution Margin Analysis
    6. Break-Even Analysis
     Part 3 - Capital Budgeting 
     10.  Time Value of Money
     11.  Net Present Value 
     12.  Payback Period

     Part 4 – Primer on Economics


     Part 5 – Primer on Quantitative Techniques in Management
  


I can of course add more topics in due course.

Afterwards, I plan to author a few more books.

Hopefully.
