Corporate Finance |
|
This program allows you to do a basic
capital budgeting analysis for a project, and compute NPV, IRR and
ROI. |
|
|
This program allows you to use past returns
on a stock and a market index to analyse its price performance
(Jensen's Alpha), its sensitivity to market movements (Beta) and the
proportion of its risk that can be attributed to the market. |
|
|
This program allows you to enter the
current beta, tax rate and the debt equity ratio for your stock, and
obtain a table of betas at different debt ratios. |
|
|
This program allows you to estimate a
rating and a cost of debt for your company from the firm's interext
coverage ratio. |
|
|
This program allows you to estimate an
"Optimal" Capital Structure for a company using the Adjusted Present
Value Approach. |
|
|
This program allows you to estimate an
"Optimal" Capital structure for a company using the cost of capital
approach. |
|
|
This is a variant that allows you to
estimate an "Optimal" capital structure for a company whose operating
income might vary with its debt rating - for instance, financial
service firms. |
|
|
This program allows you to estimate the
duration of a firm's assets and its sensitivity to other macro
economic variables. It may be useful in the design of debt. |
|
|
This program compares the dividends paid to
what a firm could have paid, by estimating the free cash flow to
equity (the cash flow left over after net debt payments, net capital
expenditures and working capital investments. |
|
|
This program computes the value of equity
in a firm using a two-stage dividend discount and FCFE model. (For
more extensive choices on valuation, look at the programs under the
valuation section below.) |

Inputs |
|
This file describes the programs in this
section and provides some insights into their usage. |

cost of capital for your firm. |

risk premium in a market. This can be used in discounted cashflow
valuation to do market neutral valuation. |

This model tries to do it all, with all of
the associated risks and rewards. I hate having to work with a dozen
spreadsheets to value a firm, and I have tried to put them all into
one spreadsheet - a ratings estimator, an earnings normalizer, an R&D
converter, an operating lease converter, a bottom-up beta estimator
and industry averages. Try it out and make your own additions. |
