  3. The R&D Effect You have just finished a DCF valuation of a pharmaceutical company and arrived at a value per share of $ 20. However, you used the conventional accounting numbers in arriving at your cash flows and discount rates. You decide to capitalize R&D and revalue the firm. What will happen to your value per share? • It should remain unchanged. Money spent is money spent. • It should go up. Earnings will increase when you capitalize R&D • It should go down. Reinvestment will increase when you capitalize R&D • Any of the above, depending on the company.
