Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2017-2018.

This course provides fundamental concepts and tools to value firms and assets using an economic framework. It begins with an overview of three approaches to valuation: 1) discounted cash flow (DCF); 2) valuation by multiples using comparable firms; and 3) real-options. We will first discuss how valuation by multiples and the DCF approach are one and the same. Then, we will discuss these two approaches in detail. We will also discuss issues concerning the cost of capital, and the real-options approach to value assets. Both conceptual understanding and practical implementations through case studies will be emphasized.

When Offered Fall, spring.
