Course Description
This course is all about math and money-how to earn it and make decisions on spending it. Through projects and discussions, students explore what it means to have income, pay taxes, purchase a vehicle, buy a house, and save for the future. By applying skills in basic algebra, students create a personal budget, do comparison-shopping for large and small purchases, and calculate interest on savings and borrowed money. The course uses videos as teaching tools and includes plenty of examples, exercises, and engaging simulations for practice. Students are given the opportunity to work with calculators and spreadsheets. Interesting stories from people who work in career fields that use mathematics add authenticity to the course, which engages students and illustrates math's place in the world beyond the classroom.


In this course, you learn how to employ the personnel necessary to operate a business, purchase inventory, calculate sales and marketing factors, and do simple accounting and financial management. From a mathematical viewpoint, you practice calculations, find percentages, solve equations, and use spreadsheets. You also complete projects that include using the power of mathematics and your own creativity to market a new product.
