Authors Casabona and Traficanti provide explanations and easy-to-follow illustrations of investment pricings in order to reinforce valuation concepts and help accountants apply those concepts to more complicated investments that are found in the marketplace. They show how investors are compensated for assuming risks and how this impacts pricing.
