On a dark road in the middle of the night, a car plunges down into a ravine. The driver survives the crash, but suffers horrible burns over much of his body. As he recovers in the hospital, planning his suicide, a strange woman appears at the foot of his bed, insisting she saved his life a century ago. Spanning medieval Germany, Japan, Iceland, and beyond, "The Gargoyle" is a mesmerizing novel of death, history, obsession, and faith.

First published in 1996 as a companion to the bestselling Mortgage-Backed Securities by Andrew Davidson and Michael Herskovitz, this workbook helped train a generation of new analysts, providing practical examples, hands-on exercises and problems to assist in mastering the intricacies of the mortgage-backed securities market. For almost two decades, it provided an introduction to MBS analysis, demonstrating not only how to run cash flow models but also how to construct them. 
While the demand for the workbook extended beyond its in-print status, the publication of Davidson and Levin's new book, Mortgage Valuation Models: Embedded Options, Risk and Uncertainty, seemed the perfect occasion for the reissue of this classic workbook. Though many of the tools and concepts described in the new book did not exist and were hardly imaginable in the early 1990s, the basic calculations remain the same, and the workbook remains a great entry into the world of MBS analysis. 
Focusing on cash flow calculations, analytical techniques, and valuation methods, the workbook shows how mortgage-backed securities analysts construct measures of risk and reward for individual securities of an entire portfolio. The Mortgage-Backed Securities Workbook will provide you with a foundation for a more complete understanding of the terminology and investment tools associated with the mortgage-backed securities market including how to: Successfully calculate MBS prepayment rates Calculate MBS and CMO cash flows Perform scenario analysis Understand and apply binomial and Monte Carlo option-adjusted spread analysis 
This is a must-have resource for any financial professional wishing to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of this important market, providing hands-on exercises for the mastery of mortgage-backed securities.

In this account, the author charts the story of the furore over Mrs Thatcher's plans to auction off the 16 licences, how the industry turned the tables and the battles that took place behind closed doors as contenders bid nearly #700 million for the stations once descibed as "a licence to print money". The book concludes with an assessment of the future of commercial broadcasting. The book features well-known media figures such as Richard Branson, David Frost, Phil Redmond and Michael Green.

Financial Life Cycle Mathematics (FiCycle) provides a theoretically grounded introduction to finance for High School Students. It navigates the financial calculations and decisions a person must make over the course of a lifetime (the financial lifecycle of an individual). The course unifies the material around two key principles: transferring consumption across time and managing uncertainty. It also presents the mathematical concepts underlying these principles in a systematic manner. This unit introduces the fundamental concepts for understanding finance. A natural way to think about your financial situation is in terms of the amount of cash you have access to either in your pocket or in your bank account. To plan effectively, though, you need to move beyond cash balance, and think about wealth taking into account your assets and debts. Financial statements allow us to track our wealth systematically, so we can more effectively meet our financial goals. After completing this unit, you will be able to: Distinguish between: income, expense, asset, liability Fill in and read T-accounts Create and read income statements Create and read balance sheets Create and read sources and uses statements Create any of the above from T-accounts Create financial statements, given a description of a person s financial situation Analyze a person s situation and provide the best financial decision for them Research online, to find budgeting constraints
