Corporate Financial Forecasting - AFIN890

The aim of this unit is to investigate, from both a theoretical and applied perspective, the role of forecasting in the investment and financing decisions of corporations. Why do corporations need forecasts, what methods do they use to generate and evaluate forecasts, and what weight do they place on forecasts in decision making? Both short term and long term forecasting activities are examined.
