|

A discounted cash flow statement looks to analyze the value of a company. To do
|
||||
this we need to predict the future cash flows and then determine how much those
|
||||
cash flows are worth to us today.\n\n
|
||||
|
||||
We predict the future expected cash flows by prediciting what the financial
|
||||
statements will look like in the future, and then using this to determine the
|
||||
cash the company will have in the future. This cash is paid to share holders.
|
||||
We us linear regression to predict the future financial statements.\n\n
|
||||
|
||||
Once we have our predicted financial statements we need to determine how much the
|
||||
cash flows are worth today. This is done with a discount factor. Our DCF allows
|
||||
users to choose between Fama French and CAPM for the factor. This allows us
|
||||
to calculate the present value of the future cash flows.\n\n
|
||||
|
||||
The present value of all of these cash payments is the companies' value. Dividing
|
||||
this value by the number of shares outstanding allows us to calculate the value of
|
||||
each share in a company.\n\n
