Valuation Principles

Valuation principles are fundamental concepts used to determine the worth of an asset, business, or investment. They consider factors such as the current market price, future earning potential, and the overall economic environment. Common methods include comparing similar assets (comparative analysis), assessing future cash flows (discounted cash flow), and evaluating the cost to replace or reproduce the asset. These principles help investors, companies, and individuals make informed decisions about buying, selling, or investing, ensuring that they understand the fair value of something based on various metrics and circumstances.
