Calculating Intrinsic Value using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis (Skillshare)

Calculating Intrinsic Value using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis (Skillshare)

In this course I will teach you how to calculate intrinsic value using DCF analysis. This is one of the most powerful stock and asset valuation methods in the world. It is a cornerstone tool for value investing, and it has for many years remained the method of choice for the best investors, including the likes of Warren Buffett. I made this course as I myself couldn't find a comprehensive guide as to how to actually perform an intrinsic value calculation.

In that manner, I attempted to make it as easy to follow as possible, to cater to people from all skill ranges. I hope you enjoy the course, and that you learn a skill which can help you earn money from investing. I also greatly appreciate your feedback, so please do let me know if there is any way that i can improve the course in the future.
In the attached photo I have included a range of assumptions. Your job is to calculate the intrinsic value using the information I have provided you with. Share with me your result so that I can see if you got it right or not.
