Recommend me a good corp fin book

In college for my corp fin class I used essentials of corporate finance by Ross Westerfield Jordan (http://www.amazon.com/Essentials-Corporate-Financ…) and it served me really well. I stupidly sold this book as soon as the class ended because I was strapped for cash. It's not that expensive on amazon and I plan on buying it because I need to revise for interviews but if someone here can recommend me something better I'll just buy that instead.

Thanks!!

 

Vernimmen, Dallochio, Quiry: Corporate Finance Theory and Practice.

One of the most well written I've come across.

Not to be a total dick, but just fuckin' do it. What is some guy on a website telling you to "read a book" going to do? Just read it, learn the shit, know what a fuckin' WACC is and move on. The more you know, they better prepped you'll be to do a job. End of story.

Like a lot of people out here already know I assume, I think you'd like Aswath Damodaran's website ( http://pages.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/ ) as well as his pretty thorough book, "Investment Valuation: tools & techniques for determining the value of any asset" (Wiley Finance editions). This guy is NYU MBA corp fin guru.

This website is very useful as a student for finding info for case studies, such as WC / sales by industry, levered betas, and pretty much whatever you want. The book is also very useful for interview prep about DCF, relative valuation, etc... And it gives you a good idea on how to make reasonable valuation assumptions I think.

But it is a fairly "advanced" (though not a PhD rocket science book either). If you don't know much about corp fin, I reckon you could buy "corporate finance" ( Brealey / Myers / Allen, McGraw Hill editions ), used @ a number of top MBA schools, as an introduction.

I think they're helpful, especially Inv Valuation. And they're insightful & interesting readings anyway!

As The King puts it, and I seriously believe in that too, you'd better know your shit.
