I teach corporate finance, valuation and investment philosophies at the Stern School of Business at New York University. I have online versions of all three courses here, as well as other finance-related videos. 1. The Corporate Finance Online playlist has an introductory video and 36 sessions that cover all of corporate finance (at least as I see it). 2. The Valuation playlist has 25 sessions that cover valuation approaches, issues and questions.3. The Investment Philosophies playlist has sessions that cover different investment philosophies.4. The Accounting and Statistics playlists reflect my quirky and unorthodox introductions to two disciplines that are critical to my valuation and corporate finance classes.5. The Blog Posts playlist has sessions that go wit my blog posts and reflect my standing as a dabbler, rather than expert, in all things finance-related.

In this session, I examine the fundamentals that determine betas, and how using industry averages and correcting for differences in leverage can yield better estimates of betas not only for companies, but their business segments.Slides: https://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/pdfiles/execcf/session6.pdf(This is a blast from the past, since these are recordings of a corporate finance class that I taught in the Stern Trium MBA program in January 2016. That said, corporate finance first principles don't magically change over time, and while nothing is timeless, the lessons hold up. The class was a three-day class, with twelve recordings of about an hour and a half each.

Session 7: Costs of Debt and Capital
In this session, I look at the cost of debt for a company, and how it is incorporated into a cost of capital. I also open the door to measuring returns on individual projects.Slides: https://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/pdfiles/execcf/session7.pdf(This is a blast from the past, since these are recordings of a corporate finance class that I taught in the Stern Trium MBA program in January 2016.

Session 27: Value Enhancement
In this class, we started by drawing a contrast between price and value enhancement. With value enhancement, we broke down value change into its component parts: changing cash flows from existing assets, changing growth rates by either reinvesting more or better, lengthening your growth period by creating or augmenting competitive advantages and lowering your cost of capital. We then used this framework to compute an expected value of control as a the product of the probability of changing the way a company is run and the value increase from that change (optimal - status quo value). This expected value of control allows us to explain why market prices for stocks rise when corporate governance improves, why voting shares usually trade at a premium over non-voting shares (and why they sometimes don't).Start of the class test: http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/pdfiles/eqnotes/tests/valenh.pdfSlides: http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/podcasts/valUGspr17/session27.pdfPost class test: http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/pdfiles/eqnotes/postclass/session27Atest.pdfPost class test solution: http://www.stern.nyu.edu/~adamodar/pdfiles/eqnotes/postclass/session27Asoln.pdf
