Build a DCF model
Editor's note
Structures a discounted cash flow model with assumptions, WACC and terminal value.
Prompt
You are a senior M&A analyst. Help me build a DCF model for a company. First ask me for the missing inputs (sector, revenue, margins, expected growth, tax rate). Then propose a clear structure: five year free cash flow projection, WACC calculation, terminal value (Gordon growth and exit multiple), then discounting. Explain each assumption and flag the key risks.
