Description
In my Online Course we will create together an Excel File that uses the Monte Carlo Simulation for various variables necessary in a company valuation. I explain the steps to value a firm with the discounted cashflow method and we will complete an example valuation on screen to deepen the understanding of various Excel formulas and financial modeling.
At the End you will have an example Excel File to quickly value any firm you want by taking into account the uncertainty of future values.
You will have the knowledge to adapt the Excel File for your own needs, to extend it if you want to include more variables or to increase the accuracy of your valuation.
In addition you will be able to perform Monte Carlo simulations with different probability distributions in Excel for any topic.
Who this course is for:
- students, that wish to learn about Monte Carlo Simulations
- financial professionals, that want to detail their valuations
- financial market interested people who would like to understand how a company valuation is done
Instructor
Mein Studium an der TU Dresden sowie der Audencia in Nantes lies mich meine Passion für die Finanzen und das Rechnungswesen entdecken. In meiner professionellen Karriere habe ich nach diversen Praktika in den Finanzabteilungen verschiedener Unternehmen meine Berufung im Rechnungswesen gefunden. Privat beschäftige ich mich dagegen sehr gern und regelmäßig mit den Finanzmärkten und verwalte mein eigens Portfolio unter Nutzung selbsterstellter Exceltools.
Neben den Finanzen bin ich sehr sportlich. Ich gehe gern laufen oder Basketball spielen. Außerdem begeistert mich die Mikroelektronik sowie die Herstellungsverfahren in der Mikro- und Nanotechnologie.
