Spreadsheet Modeling and Decision Analysis, 3rd Edition, by Cliff Ragsdale provides instruction in the most commonly used management science techniques and shows how these tools can be implemented using the most current version of Microsoft Excel for Windows. This text also focuses on developing both algebraic and spreedsheet modeling skills...Step-by step instructions and numerous annotated screen shots make examples easy to follow and motivate discussion of each topic. Solutions to each example are analyzed from a managerial perspective. - Back page.
