Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) Versus the Discounted Cash Flows Method Managerial Analysis/BUSN 602 Capital asset pricing model or CAPM is a financial model that measures the risk premium inherent in equity investments like common stocks while Discounted Cash Flow or DCF compares the cost of an investment with the present value of future cash flows generated by the investment with the mindset being that if the cash flow is positive, then the investment is good. Generally speaking, CAPM is
an effect on corporate decisions, including projects to develop and where to find funds, and on the dividend policy. In such a way to study the topic, we will discuss first the Net Asset Value and its advantages and disadvantages, then the Discounted cash flow method and to finish the dividend discount model. The net asset value (NAV) method measures the value of a fund’s assets. It enables investors to analyse a fund’s performance market and industry standards such as Moody’s. The NAV is the
In finance, the discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis is a method of valuing a project, company or asset using the concepts of time value of money (Wikipedia, 2004). Three inputs are required to use the DCF, also called dividend-yield-plus-growth-rate approach, include: the current stock price, the current dividend, and the marginal investor’s expected dividend growth rate. The stock price and the dividend are east to obtain, but the expected growth rate is difficult to estimate (Ehrhardt & Brigham
explained how to bridge the gap between strategic planning and finance theory. Myers wrote this journal to explain why finance analysis had only slight impact on strategic planning, even though strategic planning needs finance.

a) Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) valuations aims to establish the value of operating business on a ’cash free/debt free’ basis and therefore it is normally undertaken using ungeared cash flows. The value of the business should remain the same regardless of its financial structure. In case that geared cash flow is used in an equity model valuation, it should be discounted at the cost of equity capital and not a weighted average cost of capital (WACC). This approach estimates the shareholders’ net returns

The NPV method incorporates all the cash flows that a project generates over its life, not just those that occur in the project’s early years. Finally, the NPV gives a direct estimate of the change in shareholder wealth resulting from a given investment. urthermore Panday ( 999), points out
