Leverage plays a pivotal role in corporate finance decision-making, and finding the optimal level of leverage is a subject of ongoing debate. By understanding and applying leverage effectively, businesses can accelerate their growth and financial success. Throughout the course, we will explore the concepts of operating leverage, financial leverage, and combined leverage, providing practical practice problems that reinforce these critical concepts.

Break-even analysis is a fundamental tool in decision-making, enabling us to assess the point at which costs and revenues are in equilibrium. You will gain a deep understanding of break-even analysis, including the categorization of costs as fixed costs and variable costs based on their behavior. This approach, though different from the traditional functional categorization, allows us to assess cost changes in relation to production levels and make informed projections for the future.

We will guide you through the calculation of the break-even point and the cash break-even point, offering insights into nonlinear break-even analysis. You will develop proficiency in utilizing these tools to evaluate financial performance, assess risk, and make strategic decisions.

Throughout the course, you will encounter numerous practice problems, many of which include downloadable Excel worksheets. Each Excel worksheet will consist of at least two tabs—one with the answer key and the other preformatted to facilitate step-by-step practice along with instructional videos. This hands-on approach will enhance your learning experience and provide practical application of leverage and break-even analysis concepts.
