COURSE OBJECTIVES
Finance is a defining subject of study in any business program. The study of finance (along with a number of other subjects, like, marketing, accounting, and human resource management) define who you are as business students. Any student who graduates with a degree in business must have some familiarity with financial principles and financial markets. The first objective of this course is to survey these topics for non-finance concentrators. The word "survey" means that we will not explore every area of the discipline nor will we indulge in advanced study of any area. The second objective of the course is to introduce students who are interested in becoming finance concentrators to topics that they will study in more depth in later advanced courses.

COURSE TEXT
Introduction to Financial Analysis for Corporations, 3’rd Edition (dark grey cover), by George W. Blazenko. A hard-copy can be purchased from the SFU bookstore. An electronic version of this manuscript is available free of charge from the course website. Documents

    George Orwell was the alias of Eric Blair, the author of 1984 and Animal Farm. Orwell was a political writer whose novels and essays criticized the political oppression taking place in Europe in the middle of the twentieth century. Orwell was a relentless opponent of capitalism and communism. He witnessed firsthand the horrific lengths to which totalitarian governments in Spain and Russia would go in order to sustain and increase their power during the Spanish Civil War. Orwell was deeply disturbed by the widespread cruelty and oppression he saw in communist countries (Duiker, 16-20). Orwell can be remembered through his works as a supporter of freedom and contester of capitalism and totalitarianism. Two of his greatest works, Animal Farm and 1984, form the basis of his fight against totalitarianism. Orwell's 1984 foreshadows the sadistic personality of the authoritative government. Animal Farm demonstrates that society's ignorance will prove to be the reason the government gets explicit control, even in a democratically ruled…
