Valuation for Startups Using Discounted Cash Flows

Colleagues, the Valuation for Startups Using Discounted Cash Flows program focuses on  discounted cash flow method means that we can find firm value by discounting future cash flows of a firm. That is, firm value is the present value of cash flows a firm generates in the future. In order to understand the meaning of present value, we are going to discuss time value of money, first. That is, the value of $100 today is different from the value of $100 a year later. Then, what should be the present value of $100 that you are going to receive in 1 year? How about the value of $100 dollars that you are going to receive every year for the next 10 years? How about forever? After taking this course, you are going to be able to find the present value of these types of cash flows in the future. Unlike most finance courses, in this course, you are going to learn how to use excel to find the present value of future cash flows. In addition to the present value, you are also going to learn how to find future value given investment; interest rate given investment and future cash flows, payments given interest rates, number of periods to wait given investment and interest rate, and so on.
