Publisher's Synopsis
Financial Resource Management, 3rd Edition, has been written with the needs of the sport, tourism, and leisure service manager in mind. The authors have worked in a variety of sport, tourism, and leisure settings in several different parts of the United States and Canada and have discovered that there is no place to hide from the opportunity or responsibility to know about budgets, finance, and fiscal management. It has been written for the mathematically challenged, for the pre-professional, for the professional who received on-the-job training, and for the professional who is keenly interested in and dedicated to continuous improvement. Readers will learn important principles of economics and finance. They will also learn the skills necessary to prepare, present, and manage budgets, as well as generate revenues for capital development and day-to-day operations. Discussions include examples from the real world and offer illustrations to facilitate the learning of some of the more complex or technical points.
