| 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. |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
