Financial Accounting and Reporting
This module describes the accounting principles that govern the creation of financial statements. Treasury professionals use financial statements to determine the firm’s:

The Capital Structure Decision and Management
Capital structure refers to the mix of debt and equity used to fund the assets held by a firm. When choosing a capital structure, the goal is to find the financing mix that minimizes capital’s overall cost, thus maximizing shareholder value. For this reason, treasury professionals must have a grasp of the basic issues associated with capital structure.
This module opens with a review of capital structure. In addition, the module reviews other important areas of financial management, such as lease financing, equity management, an overview of tax strategy, shareholder rights, and dividend policy. Each topic can have a direct bearing on firm value.
