Using the income approach, a forecast is first prepared of a company’s future cash flows. A forecast is the first step in developing an indication of a business’s value under that approach. Next, the analyst determines the present value of those expected future cash flows by applying a discount rate that reflects the risk associated with achieving them. The discounted cash flows are then summed to arrive at an indication of value. This process is known as a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis.
