"The two are related in that firm value is enhanced when return on capital, a function of working capital management, exceeds cost of capital, which results from the longer term, capital decisions."
Im not sure exactly what you dissagree with. That a firm's value is enhanced when its return on capital is greater than its WACC I think is uncontrovertial. Oh, I see the problem. Would you feel better if it was changed to say "PRIMARILY a function of working capital management" and "PRIMARILY results from longer term capital decisions"? That allows for the effect that working cap. man. might have on the WACC and also the effect that capital decisions will have on ROE. Even that isnt quite right, maybe it should just be deleted as you suggest. mydogategodshat 22:25, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Currently:
Proposed:
It's not perfect, would like something that explains, rather than rattles off terms, but it is better that current, I think. Return on capital and cost of capital are the function of both long and short term decisions, so the current text is misleading, I think.

Ok, second try. A bit long, but it actually summarizes the structure of the article now.

I changed the word "reduce" to "managing" risk in the lead paragraph because reducing risk is one strategy in managing risk. Also, the section below which expands upon the lead paragraph is about risk management.--Bmarmie (talk) 03:22, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
Corporate finance category
This may seem a little pithy, but the "corporate finance" photo shows midtown Manhattan looking north, whereas most of the corporate finance that happens in Manhattan takes place downtown. Surely, a picture of Wall Street or the Bull on Broadway or an aerial shot of the financial center would be more appropriate? --Cww 15:22, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Corporate Finance
Hello WP users, My name is Daniel Szafran. Although I am new to Wikipedia, I bring with me many years of background in the Financial Industry as a Controller. I am looking to provide much of my experience and knowledge to the Wikipedia Community.
Among my list of improvements, I will be focusing on Corporate Finance, Leasing, Section 179 and similar topics.
I will be further updating this page as I have the time to put in my own words.
If anyone has any questions about Financing or the industry in general please feel free to ask on my talk page.I look forward to building this great wealth of knowledge, known as Wikipedia.

kenneth marks book
User:Khmarks, whether or not you are a professor is irrelevant. It is fairly obvious that you are the same person as the author of the book you are inserting into many many finance articles. Unless the book has a good reason for being in the article - ie it is itself notable, or it is actually cited in the article - you can't just put it in. Neither of these are the case. You are simply spamming a number of pages with your book, and this is unacceptable. Mitsuhirato (talk) 01:
