Course description
Discounted cash flow (DCF) is a valuation model used by investors and advisors to give the present value of an asset where the forecasted cash flow of the asset is discounted back to the valuation date. An explicit discounted cash flow model uses predicted input changes, such as growth, costs and required discount rates.
Globally, markets and industries use explicit DCF models in different ways. It is quite common for investors and their advisors to use DCF to calculate the worth of an asset to them.
