While the content may appear interesting, the actual guided project is very frustrating to complete. The external tool that they use (Rhyme) is laggy and inflexible. You cannot even use spreadsheet software on your own computer because the video will not play unless you are in the Rhyme browser tab. I do not recommend.

This course is really not worth the time, and definitely not worth the money. The system utilized in the project, rhyme, is extremely slow and actually crashed when I was almost complete with the project, erasing all of the work I had done.

As far as the project itself, it is rudimentary and superficial. This is not a robust introduction to WACC or valuation methods in general, but simply how to perform very simple calculations in excel/sheets.

The instructor repeatedly refers to his previous courses (all separate and 9.99 each, of course) throughout the project. It is quite annoying to pay for premium content on Coursera only to be marketed to again and again!

The instructor makes a buch of errors both in explaining and in his calculations. He is not a native English speaker, but the pronunciation are ok. However, his communication is confusing. It doesn't seem like he had prepared what to say, but just tried to wing it.

This course is very great and explains you the method to calculate the WACC and the NPV. It shows in details th calcul, and as its name says, it's an introduction, but a really good introduction to the Financial Valuation area.
