    The Mckinsey Valuation online course

    Posted: 24 Jan 2018 12:58 PM PST

    Has anyone tried the Mckinsey Valuation online course, if so, does it provide any clarification above the book and workbook? Here's a link to it: https://www.wiley.com/en-us/Valuation+Course+Download-p-9781119036050

    I already have the book, and workbook but there are some inconsistencies, and at points, the book fails to explain the process for finding certain things. Considering buying the online course if it goes more in depth.

    What's the merit of High ROIC when growth is zero?

    Posted: 24 Jan 2018 08:25 PM PST

    Although high ROIC is well known as quality factor of a firm.
    according to following formula (1 - g/ROIC) / (WACC - g)
    there's no actual difference between High ROIC and Low ROIC when g is zero. then what's the merit of High ROIC in this case? is it just implying low reinvestment requirement when growth is back?

    Standard Adjustments for Operating Leases

    Posted: 24 Jan 2018 07:23 PM PST

    According to Moody's, the general "rule-of-thumb" for capitalizing operating leases is to multiply rent by 8. However, what is the rationale for this? I understand that it differs industry to industry and that it is just a estimation, but I don't understand the rationale.

    From the link below from Moody's (page 10): "an '8x' rent factor, while providing a quick thumbnail estimate, assumes a certain interest rate (6%) on a piece of capital equipment with a long useful life (15 years)."

    I'm confused how this is arrived. When having 15 years of $100 of annual rent and discounting each by 1.06, we arrive at a NPV of ~$971. This represents a 9.7x multiple of the $100 of rent.

    Can someone help me understand this? Thanks!

    Question about WACC and Adjusted Present Value method of DCF.

    Posted: 24 Jan 2018 07:57 AM PST

    I am working through some textbook problems and noticed that sometimes the answers use after tax cash flows and discount them to the present and other times the answers involve just discounting the pre tax cashflows. When using the WACC do I discount the pretax cashflows at the WACC and similarly do I discount after tax CF using the unlevered cost of capital for APV and then calculate PV(interest tax shield)? Or should I always use the pre tax cash flows?
