  2. Net present value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_present_value

    The NPV of a sequence of cash flows takes as input the cash flows and a discount rate or discount curve and outputs a present value, which is the current fair price. The converse process in discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis takes a sequence of cash flows and a price as input and as output the discount rate, or internal rate of return (IRR ...

  3. Discounted cash flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discounted_cash_flow

    Using DCF analysis to compute the NPV takes as input cash flows and a discount rate and gives as output a present value. The opposite process takes cash flows and a price (present value) as inputs, and provides as output the discount rate; this is used in bond markets to obtain the yield.

MedICT has chosen the perpetuity growth model to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the forecast period.

  5. Present value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Present_value

    An investor can decide which project to invest in by calculating each projects’ present value (using the same interest rate for each calculation) and then comparing them. The project with the smallest present value – the least initial outlay – will be chosen because it offers the same return as the other projects for the least amount of ...

    A common method for evaluating a hurdle rate is to apply the discounted cash flow method to the project, which is used in net present value models. The hurdle rate determines how rapidly the value of the dollar decreases out in time, which, parenthetically, is a significant factor in determining the payback period for the capital project when ...

  7. Adjusted present value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjusted_present_value

    Adjusted present value (APV) is a valuation method introduced in 1974 by Stewart Myers. [1] The idea is to value the project as if it were all equity financed ("unleveraged"), and to then add the present value of the tax shield of debt – and other side effects. [2] Technically, an APV valuation model looks similar to a standard DCF model.

  8. Discounting - Wikipedia

    [2] [6] The "discount rate" is the rate at which the "discount" must grow as the delay in payment is extended. [7] This fact is directly tied into the time value of money and its calculations. [1] The present value of $1,000, 100 years into the future. Curves representing constant discount rates of 2%, 3%, 5%, and 7%

  9. Time value of money - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_value_of_money

    The present value of $1,000, 100 years into the future. Curves represent constant discount rates of 2%, 3%, 5%, and 7%. The time value of money refers to the fact that there is normally a greater benefit to receiving a sum of money now rather than an identical sum later.
