Synopsis

Tools enabling managers to carry out financial calculations have evolved in the last 20 years from tables through calculators to programs on PCs and personal organisers.

Alastair Day clearly explains the basic calculations for mathematical finance backed up with simple templates for further use and development, together with numerous examples and exercises.
