Reviews
TOP REVIEWS FROM DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW MODELING
This course is very informative and I learned a lot even if I am new to this topic. I highly recommend this course for those who want to gain knowledge in financial modeling and analysis.
One of the quiz question was based on the terminal value but he ignored the concept completely in this guided project. Still okay though.
It was a well-guided project defining the aspects of discounted cash flow modelling
Very well taught by the professor. Easy to learn too.
