One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Financing of small business enterprises

Financing of small business enterprises focuses on the sources, structures, and management of capital that enables a small firm to start, grow, and sustain operations. Mastering this topic is essential for the exam because questions often test the ability to match financing options with business needs, assess risk, and calculate costs of capital.
