Discounted Cash Flow
Valuation
BASIC PRINCIPAL
 Would
you rather have $1,000 today or
$1,000 in 30 years?
Why?
Can invest the $1,000 today let it grow
This is a fundamental building block of
finance
2
Present and Future Value
Present Value: value of a future payment today
 Future Value: value that an investment will
grow to in the future
 We find these by discounting or compounding
at the discount rate

 Also
know as the hurdle rate or the opportunity
cost of capital or the interest rate
3
One Period Discounting

PV = Future Value / (1+ Discount Rate)
 V0
= C1 / (1+r)
Alternatively
 PV = Future Value * Discount Factor

 V0
= C1 * (1/ (1+r))
 Discount factor is 1/ (1+r)
4
PV Example

What is the value today of $100 in one year, if
r = 15%?
 PV
= 100 / 1.15 = 86.96
5
FV Example

What is the value in one year of $100, invested
today at 15%?
 FV
= 100 * (1.15)1 = $115
6
Discount Rate Example
Your stock costs $100 today, pays $5 in
dividends at the end of the period, and then
sells for $98. What is your rate of return?
 PV =
 FV =

Discount Rate Example

dividends at the end of the period, and then
sells for $98. What is your rate of return?
 PV = $100
 FV = $103 = $98 + $5


($98 + $5)/$100 – 1 = 3%
9
NPV
 NPV
= PV of all expected cash flows
Represents
the value generated by the project
To compute we need: expected cash flows &
the discount rate
 Positive
NPV investments generate value
 Negative NPV investments destroy value
10
Net Present Value (NPV)

NPV = PV (Costs) + PV (Benefit)
 Costs:
are negative cash flows
 Benefits: are positive cash flows

One period example
 NPV
= C0 + C1 / (1+r)
 For Investments C0 will be negative, and C1 will
be positive
 For Loans C0 will be positive, and C1 will be
negative
11
Net Present Value Example
 Suppose
you can buy an investment that
promises to pay $10,000 in one year for
$9,500. Should you invest?
We
don’t know
We cannot simply compare cash flows
that occur at different times
12
Net Present Value
 Since
we cannot compare cash flow we
need to calculate the NPV of the
investment
If
the discount rate is 5%, then NPV is?
NPV = -9,500 + 10,000/1.05
NPV = -9,500 + 9,523.81
NPV = 23.81
 At
what price are we indifferent?
13

NPV

Coffee Shop Example
If you build a coffee shop on campus, you can
sell it to Starbucks in one year for $300,000
 Costs of building a coffee shop is $275,000


Should you build the coffee shop?
15
Step 1: Draw out the cash flows
Today
-$275,000
Year 1
$300,000
16
Step 2: Find the Discount Rate
Assume that the Starbucks offer is guaranteed
 US T-Bills are risk-free and currently pay 7%
interest

 This

is known as rf
Thus, the appropriate discount rate is 7%
 Why?
17
Step 3: Find NPV

The NPV of the project is?
–
275,000 + (300,000/1.07)
 – 275,000 + 280,373.83
 NPV = $5,373.83
 Positive NPV → Build the coffee shop
18
If we are unsure about future?
 What
is the appropriate discount rate if
we are unsure about the Starbucks offer
 rd
= rf
 rd > rf
 rd < rf
19
If we are unsure about future?
 What
is the appropriate discount rate if
we are unsure about the Starbucks offer
 rd
= rf
 rd > rf
 rd < rf
20
The Discount Rate

Should take account of two things:
Time value of money
2. Riskiness of cash flow
1.

The appropriate discount rate is the
opportunity cost of capital
 This
is the return that is offer on comparable
investments opportunities
21
Risky Coffee Shop

Assume that the risk of the coffee shop is
equivalent to an investment in the stock market
which is currently paying 12%

Should we still build the coffee shop?
22
Calculations

Need to recalculate the NPV
= – 275,000 + (300,000/1.12)
 NPV = – 275,000 + 267,857.14
 NPV = -7,142.86
 Negative NPV → Do NOT build the coffee shop
 NPV
23
Future Cash Flows

Since future cash flows are not certain, we
need to form an expectation (best guess)
 Need
to identify the factors that affect cash flows
(ex. Weather, Business Cycle, etc).
 Determine the various scenarios for this factor (ex.
rainy or sunny; boom or recession)
 Estimate cash flows under the various scenarios
(sensitivity analysis)
 Assign probabilities to each scenario
24
Expectation Calculation
The expected value is the weighted average of
X’s possible values, where the probability of
any outcome is p
 E(X) = p1X1 + p2X2 + …. psXs

 E(X)
 Xi
 pi
s

– Expected Value of X
 Outcome of X in state i
– Probability of state i
– Number of possible states
Note that = p1 + p2 +….+ ps = 1

 (0.25*300)

+ (0.50*400) + (0.25*700) = 450,000
NPV =
 -275,000
+ 450,000/1.12
 -275,000 + 401,786 = 126,790


Compounding Periods
We
have been assuming that compounding and
discounting occurs annually, this does not need
to be the case
40
Non-Annual Compounding
Cash flows are usually compounded over
periods shorter than a year
 The relationship between PV & FV when
interest is not compounded annually

= PV * ( 1+ r / M) M*N
 PV = FVN / ( 1+ r / M) M*N
 FVN
M is number of compounding periods per year
 N is the number of years

41
Compounding Examples

What is the FV of $500 in 5 years, if the
discount rate is 12%, compounded monthly?
 FV

= 500 * ( 1+ 0.12 / 12) 12*5 = 908.35
What is the PV of $500 received in 5 years, if
the discount rate is 12% compounded
monthly?
 PV
= 500 / ( 1+ 0.12 / 12) 12*5 = 275.22
42
Another Example

An investment for $50,000 earns a rate of
return of 1% each month for a year. How much
money will you have at the end of the year?

$50,000 * 1.0112 = $56,341
43
Interest Rates

The 12% is the Stated Annual Interest Rate
(also known as the Annual Percentage Rate)
 This
is the rate that people generally talk about
 Ex. Car Loans, Mortgages, Credit Cards
However, this is not the rate people earn or pay
 The Effective Annual Rate is what people
actually earn or pay over the year

 The
more frequent the compounding the higher the
Effective Annual Rate
44
Compounding Example 2

If you invest $50 for 3 years at 12%
compounded semi-annually, your investment
will grow to:
$70.93
FV = 50 * (1+(0.12/2))2*3 = $70.93
45
Compounding Example 2: Alt.
If you invest $50 for 3 years at 12%
compounded semi-annually, your investment
will grow to: $70.93
 Calculate the EAR: EAR = (1 + R/m)m – 1

 EAR
 FV

= (1 + 0.12 / 2)2 – 1 = 12.36%
= 50 * (1+0.1236)3 = $70.93
So, investing at 12.36% compounded annually
is the same as investing at 12% compounded
semi-annually
46
EAR Example

Find the Effective Annual Rate (EAR) of an 18% loan
that is compounded weekly.
 EAR
= (1 + 0.18 / 52)52 – 1 = 19.68%

Credit Card


of 14%, compounded daily. If you charge $15,000 at

What Is a Firm Worth?
Conceptually, a firm should be worth the
present value of the firm’s cash flows.
 The tricky part is determining the size, timing,
and risk of those cash flows.
