The professor is very patient, he spends a lot of time making sense of the equations and the calculation process, which helps me comprehend the concepts and their application really a lot. Thank you!

Excellent and concise course! I've dealt with IRR and NPV for my job for years and did not fully understand their origins and limitations, and this course helped clearly articulate that for me.
