  • Stock Valuation – DCF Theory & Calculators - How much is a share of stock really worth? Not just in terms of analysts' opinions, but logically, based on facts? In theory, the answer is simple: a company is worth the total amount of cash it will generate over its lifetime, discounted to its present value. This article presents a simple discounted cash flows calculator, along with some popular variations and shortcuts, to make stock valuation make sense. The author however sounds a note of caution before he starts the article, “When you use any kind of value formula, it's a good idea to remember Warren Buffett's advice, that "it's far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price than a fair company at a wonderful price". The idea is to find a company whose prospects you really believe in, and then use a valuation technique as a reality check, to make sure the purchase price is acceptable. And try to make your valuation estimates realistic and conservative: you're trying to protect yourself from overpaying, not justify your surplus of enthusiasm. “ Interesting and useful resource, from Money Chimp
