This course presents fundamental concepts and tools to value firms and assets using an economic framework. We will study the key underlying principles of valuation, including multiples analysis, fundamental cash flow analysis, and real option approaches, and apply the different approaches to value firms in the real world. Through a mixture of exercises, cases, a valuation project, and other real-world examples, we will emphasize both conceptual understanding and practical implementation issues.
