Business mathematics is designed as a first course in Mathematics for students of business administration and fulfils two important student needs: (1) a foundation in mathematics and (2) effective methods of solving mathematical problems in business areas. The course therefore engages students with the basic principles involved in the topics treated as well as how to apply the techniques developed in quantitative analysis, accounting, finance, insurance and marketing, amongst others. The topics to be covered in this course include: solving equations (linear, nonlinear, and simultaneous), powers and exponents, logarithms, calculus, index numbers, time value of money, matrix algebra, presentation of data, summary statistics, set theory and probability. Students are also exposed to the use of the computer in applying Mathematics to business decision-making.
