This book focuses on the primary valuation methodologies currently used on Wall Street:  namely comparable companies analysis, precedent transactions analysis, discounted cash flow analysis and leveraged buyout analysis. With the new fully revised edition which includes questions at the end of each chapter, they have added the most comprehensive, rigorous set of intuition-building and problem-solving ancillaries anywhere--all of which promised to become essential, knowledge enhancing tools for professors and students.
