Time Value of Money

Introduction to Finance

Dollar Today ≠ Dollar in One Year…Why?

To adjust for the opportunity cost of capital, we use Present Value

FVt is the “Future Value”, i – “Discount Rate”

Key Concept: Time Value of Money

The Power of Present Value You make 100k each year for the rest of your

life, your discount rate is i = .05

PV = (100k/1.05)+(100k/1.05^2)+(100k/1.05^3)+…

“Perpetuity formula”, PV = 100k / .05 = $2M

Conclusion:Finance === Present Value!!

Understanding Discount RatesCAPM and WACC

Discount Rates

Introduction to Finance

8

Discount Rate Intuition Used to discount current and future cash flows (as

shown earlier)

r (“interest rate”) = risk free rate + risk premium

When you take home mortgage, why can’t you borrow at the risk free rate?

9

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

Gives us the rate of return on some asset (could be a stock, bond, house, etc.)

Three Components: Risk Free Rate (usually 10 year), Market Return (usually S&P), and Beta (see next slide)

10

What is Beta? “The Market Price of Risk”

Beta is the measure of an asset’s sensitivity to the overall market

Testing Yahoo Finance: Do a regression of yearly MSFT returns on S&P Returns, the slope should be ~equal to the beta listed

11

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)

Calculating the asset beta at constant debt-to-value ratio:

We take into account capital structure using this formula:

Valuation

Introduction to Finance

Valuation

Why is it important? Valuation is at the heart of finance

Common Terms Fair Value Intrinsic Value

Two primary methods: (1) Comparables/Precedents (2) DCF

Others include LBO, Replacement value, Sum-of-the-Parts

14

Valuation (cont’d)

Enterprise Value Value of the operations of the company

attributable to all providers of capital Enterprise Value = Equity Value + Debt – Cash

Equity Value Portion of value attributable only to shareholders Equity Value = Share Price x Shares Outstanding

15

Valuation (cont’d)

Comparable Company Analysis Look at how similar companies are being valued to

derive a value for your company Common multiples: P/E, EV/EBITDA, EV/FCF

DCF Trying to value a company today based on the

cash flows it’s expected to produce in the future FCF, Terminal value, WACC
