Przedsiębiorstwo w warunkach współczesnej gospodarki rynkowej. Finansowanie, pomiar, efektywność (Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego, 2022)
The aim of the monograph is to create a compendium of theoretical-empirical-application knowledge, covering the foundations of finance theory, with particular emphasis on the problems of financing modern enterprises, the methodology of measuring their achievements (ex post analysis) and development plans ("ex ante" analysis). The unique character of the monograph is reflected in the composition of its content, which is evident both in the structure and in the presented content. All this is supported by numerous empirical examples. The monograph consists of six chapters. The first chapter contains theoretical issues relating to definitions of the most important concepts related to corporate finance. The next two chapters present the sources of financing most often used by modern entrepreneurs. In turn, the fourth chapter is devoted to the initial analysis and evaluation of the enterprise's financial management and is enriched with an empirical study. In the fifth chapter, the authors present the methods for estimating the value of an enterprise used in economic practice, together with a case study. In the sixth chapter, the authors explain the fundamental issues related to the concept of "efficiency" and discuss the key methods for evaluating investment projects, using numerous numerical examples. Therefore, the inclusion of the most important problems of theory, analysis and evaluation, as well as empiricism of corporate finance, with particular emphasis on the aspect of enterprises' financing, in one literature item, is the monograph's greatest value
