This multipack combines Options, Futures & Other Derivatives Pearson International Edition 5th Edition (ISBN 0130465925), Modern Investment Theory Pearson International Edition 5th Edition (ISBN 0130304735), Performing Financial A Methodological Cookbook (ISBN 0130479810) and The Psychology of Investing. (ISBN 0131432702) Options, Futures & Other Derivatives can be used for undergraduate and graduate courses in Options and Futures, Financial Engineering, and Risk Management, typically found in business, finance, economics and mathematics departments. This fifth edition text represents how academia and real-world practice have come together with a common respect and focus of theory and practice. It provides a unifying approach to the valuation of all derivatives - not just futures and options. It assumes that the student has taken an introductory course in finance and an introductory course in probability and statistics. Modern Investment Theory offers accurate and intuitive coverage of investments, with an emphasis on portfolio theory. It includes extensive discussion of capital asset pricing, arbitrage pricing, pricing of derivative securities, interest rates, and bond management. Stock valuation, estimating future earnings and dividends, and fixed income markets are amined. Calculus is useful, but not required, since it is used only in the appendixes to the main discussions in the chapters.
