2 1.0 Introduction THE OPEN UNIVERSITY OF TANZANIA FACULTY OF BUSINESS MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (MBA) OAF 623: Advanced Corporate Finance Course Outline Corporate finance is becoming more dynamic and challenging both globally and in Tanzania. The past few years have seen fundamental changes in financial markets and instruments as well as new developments in corporate financial theories and practices. Firms are also operating in a more dynamic environment. Advanced Corporate Finance is designed not only to take you to a higher level but also to introduce you to recent literature and developments in a number of areas in Financial Management. The aim is to enable you master the selected topics that are significant and of contemporary nature and equip you with the ability to apply theoretical concepts in finance to problems in the area of corporate finance with all the complexities that the real world entails. 2.0 Course objectives and Learning Outcomes This course extends and applies the principles of corporate finance learned before (e.g. in OAF 612 and/or elsewhere) covering some of the main areas in corporate finance namely: the financing decision; financial system, markets and instruments; financing alternatives; dividend policy, leasing, corporate restructuring and mergers and acquisitions; and financial engineering and innovations. A key objective is to demonstrate the link between those various decisions and areas by, for example, exploring how the firm s financing, investment and payout policies interact with each other and how those decisions have implications for corporate bankruptcy and takeovers. 2.1 Course Objectives At the end of the course you will be able to: acquire knowledge of broad financial concepts; enhance skills in obtaining information on current financial issues; apply knowledge to specific problems and cases; 2
3 evaluate special areas, including sources of long term financing, corporate restructuring and reorganization, and financial engineering; become aware of some international issues in finance 2.2 Learning outcomes At the end of this course you should be able to: have acquired a knowledge and understanding of the concepts and mainstream theories in corporate finance including recent developments in the area; be able to evaluate the strengths and limitations of up-to-date theories and practices in corporate finance; be able to derive, evaluate and apply some financial theories in corporate financial management and policy making have gained experience in writing an assessed essay, paper or report in advanced corporate finance 3.0 Course Evaluation and Grading The course will be evaluated through a compulsory student progressive portfolio (SPP), timed test (TT) and the final examination (FE). 3.1 Compulsory Student Progressive Portfolio (SPP) When you register for the programme each year you will be given the SPP booklet in which you will open a page for this course. On this page you will reproduce the learning outcomes/objectives of this course. Then as you study for it, you document in the spaces provided what you have achieved, problem areas, the references you used, etc. This information will be the basis for your evaluative meeting with the course instructor during the face to face session. Upon satisfaction with this and with the interview, the instructor will endorse you to be given access to examination. This will be administered once, preferably in April (during the face to face session) at regional centre offices or at a venue arranged by the Director of Regional Centre. 3.2 Timed Test There will be one test only covering the first half of the course and it will be administered only once in a given academic year. It requires prior registration. You should therefore consult your Regional Centre Staff for the procedures and timing. 3.3 Final Examination The final examination will examine the whole course. Questions will be constructed to contain a fair balance of problems, short answers, and discussion questions (not multiple choices). The examination will be administered during the normal university examination session, i.e. in June. Note that you also need to register for it. If you fail 3
4 to take examination at this time (having officially notified the faculty of your extenuating circumstances) you will take the examination in February the following year, as special examination. If you score below the pass mark you will be given another chance to sit for a supplementary examination for it in February the following year; terms and conditions apply. 3.4 Weighting of the Course Assessment The weighting of the assessment will be as follows: Compulsory SPP ungraded Timed Test 30% Annual examination 70% Total 100% The pass mark shall be 50% 4.0 COURSE COVERAGE AND STUDYING PLAN 4.1 INTRODUCTION TO ADVANCED CORPORATE FINANCE corporation and their key features Corporate financing Financial System and its role in corporate financing and development Taxonomy of Financial markets, Instruments, and their roles An overview of corporate financing alternatives 4.2 VENTURE CAPITAL FINANCING Sources of finance for small, high-growth companies Venture capital financing and its role in corporate financing Target firms for venture capital financing The venture capital process Sources of funds for venture capital investments Attracting venture capital finance and choosing a venture capitalist Realities in venture capital financing Rules for successful venture capital investments When do venture capitalists cash out?

Being an advanced comprehensive course in Business Finance, any good Corporate Finance/Financial Management text book that covers advanced finance topics is very helpful. Below are some useful books. You are strongly advised to make every effort to secure at least a copy of one of these texts. Latest editions are highly recommended but editions that are few years old may also be useful. In addition, you are encouraged to search for specific cases and academic articles which are relevant to the topics covered. Reference No. 15 below is an example of sources of guidance on how to write an academic piece of work. If you cannot find these, there exist a number of equally good alternatives. 5.1 Text books Arnold, G. (2005) Corporate financial management. 3 rd edition. London: Pearson s International.
