Abstract
This note explores discounted cash flows as a core technique for valuing a business, allocating scarce resources, and comparing alternative investments. Suitable for MBA and undergraduate business students, this note builds on students'' basic understanding of discounting future cash flows with simple examples to which students can easily relate. Whether the discounted cash flow process used to derive a net present value or an internal rate of return metric, it is powerful, rational, and informative.
