Mr. Bodmer has written a textbook titled published by Wiley Finance. The book introduces unique modeling techniques that address many complex issues that are not typically used by even the most experienced financial analysts. For example, it describes how to build user-defined functions to solve circular logic without cumbersome copy and paste macros; how to write a function that derives the ratio of EV/EBITDA accounting for asset life, historical growth, taxes, return on investment, and cost of capital; and how to efficiently solve many project finance issues related to debt structuring. Bodmer is in the process of writing a second book that describes a series of valuation and analytical mistakes made in finance.

Over the course of his career Professor, Bodmer has been involved in formulating significant government policy related to electricity deregulation; he has prepared models and analyses for many clients around the world; he has evaluated energy purchasing decisions for many corporations; and, he has provided advice on corporate strategy.
