Business Valuation What’s an apple tree worth?
“Old Man and Apple Tree” Consider the following valuations: • Salvage • Current production • Future production • Market price • Book value Balance Sheet
Time value of money What is the value of $1?
Time value of money Let’s say I offer you either $500 today or $800 in three years. Which is better?
Time value of money $800 in 3 years is better than $500 today (assuming a 10% rate for money)
Time value of money $500 today is better than $800 in 3 years (assuming a 20% rate for money)
Time value of money Mathematically $500 * (1+ .20)3 = $864
Time value of money What if somebody offers you $864 in three years. Or $1000. What is it worth to you?
Time value of money $864 (discounted at 20% rate) = $500
Time value of money $1000 (discounted at 20% rate) = $579
Time value of money Mathematically $1000 / (1+ .20)3 = $578.70
