Financial modeling is the art and science of constructing spreadsheet models of firms’ future financial statements. This class draws on and integrates students’ knowledge of concepts learned in prior accounting classes by modeling the effect on the income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows of financial transactions such as leveraged buyouts, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate reorganizations. The class meets in the state-of-the-art Parker Center computer lab, and active student participation is emphasized.
