Bond Valuation

Bond Valuation

As quoted from wikipedia, bond valuation is the process of determining the fair price of a bond. As with any security or capital investment, the theoretical fair value of a bond is the present value of the stream of cash flows it is expected to generate. Hence, the value of a bond is determined by discounting the bond’s expected cash flows to the present using the appropriate discount rate.

This bond value calculator is created using microsoft excel built-in formula to calculate bond values, yield-to-maturity and duration of those bonds.

Company Valuation

Company Valuation Calculator

Quoting from Bill Fiduccia as stated inside this company valuation calculator, Valueing a business is always an imprecise science, even with large-cap public companies. For example, is the value of a large public company based on its market price? Its book value? Its potential worth if broken into parts that have more perceived value than the whole? The answer is, there are many ways to determine the value of a company. Perhaps the best way to understand the value of any business, large or small, is to look at who’s doing the valuing and for what purpose. For example, we’ll wager that you would value your family business differently for estate purposes vs. a sale of the business. This is why in many instances, more than one value can be correct.

Three popular approaches to value a privately held company include:

1. Balance sheet approach. This is the easiest way to value a business. It will more often than not, however, produce the lowest valuation. A company’s book value is simply a firm’s liabilities subtracted from its assets. Banks and insurance companies are often valued on this basis. Many analysts believe that using an “adjusted book value” formula will produce a more accurate picture because this method takes into account the fair market value of assets and liabilities rather than a firm’s “historical book.” Liquidation value is another way of using a company’s balance sheet to arrive at a value. In this method, you simply calculate what’s left after the assets are sold and the debts are paid. What’s left is the value.
