Which of the following statements describing the elements of intrinsic valuation is most accurate?
A.) When the present value of the cashflows is discounted with the appropriate rate and this present value is positive, then the asset providing these cashflows has a value to the investor.
B.) The risk-free rate is the lowest rate that an investor can earn from short-term investments.
C.) Cashflows may include depreciation expenses and amortization costs.
D.) A simple calculation of present values of expected cashflows of different investments using the risk free rate would be enough to determine which asset is best.
After a project has been accepted, the decision to lease or buy is determined by the present value of the lease's cash flows when discounted at the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital. O True O False
You probably noticed that lease analysis seems a bit like capital budgeting analysis, because the cash flows are estimated over the life of the project or lease. The present value of the cash flows dictates the manager’s decision. Are cash flows that are estimated in lease analysis more or less risky than capital budgeting cash flows?
Less risky
More risky

Value is futuristic. Equivalent to the present worth of all expected future benefits from ownership. A company's liquidation value is determined by its future cash flows. The Cost Approach Model adjusted the anticipated cash flows by discounting them to the valuation date using time value of money principles and a risk-adjusted discount rate that represents the asset's risk.
