- Determining the Discount Rate: A detailed exploration of calculating WACC, including the cost of equity (using the Capital Asset Pricing Model, or CAPM), and the cost of debt.
- Terminal Value Calculation: Understanding and applying various methods to calculate the terminal value, which represents the value of a company beyond the explicit forecast period.
- Performing Sensitivity Analysis: Learning how to analyze the impact of different assumptions on the valuation outcome, providing a range of potential values.
