This course provides an effective way for every non-financial person in business to learn and understand business finance in an enjoyable and practical way.
The course is aimed at equipping non-financial people in business with the understanding they need to manage the financial aspects of their work more effectively. It is ideal for admin managers, HR managers, and all non-finance line managers.
Time is money … nowhere is this commonly heard phrase truer than in the area of finance, because in financial terms, time equals interest earned or interest paid.
Money received today is worth more than money received in the future, because money received today can be immediately invested and a return, in the form of interest received, can start to accumulate.
This course
examines the arithmetic used in determining the time value of money and the
numerous ways in which time, and the accumulation of interest within that time,
can affect the future value of money borrowed or invested.
