Dividing a market into groups of people who have similar needs. This helps businesses target customers more effectively. | Example: Nike makes different shoes for runners, basketball players, and skateboarders. Each group is a segment.

What is Net Present Value (NPV)?
NPV is how much money a project is worth today after subtracting future costs and adjusting for time. | Example: You invest $1,000 and get back $1,200 in 2 years. NPV tells you if that return is worth waiting for.

What is the risk-return tradeoff?
Higher risks can bring higher rewards, but also higher losses. | Example: Stocks are risky but can earn more. Savings accounts are safe but earn little.
272
What is break-even analysis?
It's the point where sales equal costs — no profit, no loss. | Example: If it costs $100 to make cookies and you sell them for $10 each, you need to sell 10 to break even.

What is a cash budget?
It’s a plan showing how much money will come in and go out. | Example: If you earn $2,000 and spend $1,500, your cash budget helps track the $500 you have left.
274
Why integrate marketing and finance?
Marketing needs money to run campaigns, and finance must see if those campaigns are worth it. | Example: A $10,000 ad campaign that brings $50,000 in sales is a good financial decision.

How do you analyze data?
You look for trends, patterns, and what the numbers are really saying. | Example: Sales rise every December. That shows a holiday trend.
