loo101 residual income model helps to assess the value of a company. but is it really used to define its cash flows?
danlan2 I think only II is right.
noonah III is also right. It follows the broader definition of cash flows in the context of value appraisal of a business.
rhardin Quote from page 304 of the CFA Institute material: "Can the DDM be applied to non-dividend-paying shares? In theory it can, as is illustrated later, but in practice it generally is not." So my take away is yes, it CAN, though probably shouldn't.
