Book excerpt: These lecture notes are developed for an introductory course in corporate finance based on the ``Fundamentals of Corporate Finance'' textbook by Robert Parrino and David Kidwell. However, these notes share material with my corporate finance II & III lecture notes. Thus, this text can serve as a refresher when taking intermediate or advanced corporate finance courses.Two key features of these lecture notes are employed to facilitate classroom interaction and enhance learning. First, questions are embedded throughout these notes without answers. This allows class participants an opportunity to respond. It also provides readers an opportunity to pause and check their understanding. Second, some numerical examples are referenced but excluded from the student edition of the notes. This encourages students to attend class and take notes as the instructor works through numerical examples. These notes cover a broad range of topics including the role of financial managers, the financial system and interest rate levels, reading and analyzing financial statements, time value of money, risk and return, stock and bond evaluation, capital budgeting, and cost of capital considerations.
