I remember tearing that book out of the box from Amazon and cramming from it for an internship interview as a college freshman, hoping the interviewer would think me at least a junior (it worked). Recommend it for the interested.
That text is not for start-ups - it too precise to be tuned to no track record. I believe start-up founders should focus on understanding their waterfall, revenue models, and the intersection: cash burn projections. Less for negotiating with investors than for guiding decisions.
Thanks. It sounds interesting, I may pick up a copy sometime, just to help round out my knowledge of areas that I'm less than strong in. As a developer, I'm admittedly kinda weak on the financials / accounting / valuation stuff. I feel like I need to go take an accounting class or two. Guess I should look and see if there's anything good on Coursera...
