  • ""This book begins by covering finance basics and the tools and techniques of financial quantification, using relevant sport examples. It then goes beyond the basics to show how financial management works in the sport industry--such as how managers assess risk, plan expenditures, and ensure positive cash flow. Discussions include time value of money, capital budgeting, facility financing, economic impact, and risk and return. The many industry examples include evaluating financial documents from professional sports teams and sports-related companies, studying the economic impact of a large sporting event on a community, analyzing revenue distribution in collegiate conferences, and reviewing the issues involved in deciding to build a new facility. The final part of the book focuses on three sport industry sectors--parks and recreation, collegiate athletics, and professional sport--providing in-depth analysis of financial management within each sector. Sidebars, case studies, financial problems, and concept checks throughout give you real-world practice, help you think through actual issues and situations, and ensure that you understand the concepts, calculations, and terminology of financial management." -- Back Cover"
