Building Financial Models is the first book to correct this oversight, unveiling a step-by-step process for creating a core model and then customizing it for companies in virtually any industry.

This should be the text (or at least supplemental) for any serious corporate finance or financial modeling class. I wish it would've been metioned in my MBA classes. The book covers basics of Excel and accounting so you don't need to be an expert on either subject. The *best* part are the highly-detailed, step-by-step, in-depth models that show the reader how to: (1) Link the balance sheet, income statement, and statement ...
