Opis

This text explores in great depth marketing decisions that have implications for financial management. The emphasis on the financial management side of marketing makes the book relevant to a wide variety of advanced undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The book illustrates, uniquely, the interface between finance and management and, in particular, how strategic marketing decisions affect a company's financial management in terms of sales volume, profitability, return on investment and other indices of performance.
