Mathematics For Business has been created by noted authors in the mathematics, programming, and finance fields to be an extremely affordable and useful text for a first course in business mathematics. The book develops just the mathematics today's business student needs prior to taking more advanced, second and third tier mathematical courses. Basic mathematical concepts and selected topics in finite mathematics are first presented. Then the mathematics of finance is presented, followed by rates of change, derivatives, and creating trendlines. Spreadsheets are used where they are most useful in such areas as amortization tables and trend lines. The organization, presentation, and examples have been carefully tailored to be maximally useful to the intended audience.
