Corporate Finance, Canadian Edition


Book Description

"A Canadian text should reflect Canadian realities, and show how they fit into the bigger picture. The Canadian tax system, for example, differs significantly from that of the United States regarding dividends, capital gains, capital cost allowance, leasing, and foreign subsidiary income and its taxation in the parent company. We use the relevant Canadian tax code to make the examples more realistic to students and to give them exposure to how Canadian taxation works. There are many institutional and market differences between Canada and the United States. We have incorporated information on both countries' institutions and markets and often include comparisons with other countries."--
