Emphasizing modern fundamentals of the theory of finance, Corporate Finance, Ninth Canadian Edition, presents corporate finance as the collaboration of a small number of integrated and powerful institutions. Ross develops the central concepts of modern finance: arbitrage, net present value, efficient markets, agency theory, options, and the trade-off between risk and return, and uses them to explain corporate finance with a balance of theory and application.

The Ninth Canadian Edition has been thoroughly updated to include current examples, mini-cases and problem material that will help students understand and apply the material.
