Welcome to Unit 4Time Value of Money
In this unit, we explore stocks, bonds, and the financial markets in which they are traded. We often talk about stocks and bonds, but can you articulate the difference? Understanding these financial instruments can help you professionally and personally as you navigate your choices for your retirement savings accounts and other financial decisions. Stocks and bonds are an important source of capital for businesses funding new equipment and projects. For individuals, they present opportunities for their savings to grow over time. Financial markets bring these investors and corporations together so each can achieve their objectives efficiently and transparently. You can start by reviewing the unit learning outcomes and then reviewing the unit resources.
