As its titles suggests, "Business Finance: A Complete Introduction" is the first course you need in understanding the financial activities and constraints of an organization.

The first section titled "The Basics of Business Accounting" lays the groundwork for understanding business finance. Accounting is called the "language of business", and in order to understand business finance, you must speak the language.
