SILVERIO-MILANESI, Gastón. DISCOUNT OF CASH FLOWS AND INFLATION FOR THE VALUATION OF COMPANIES IN TWO CURRENCIES. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2017, vol.20, n.44, pp.189-218. ISSN 0120-6346.  https://doi.org/10.22395/seec.v20n44a9.

The objective of this article is to present a framework based on parity theories on the model of discounts of flows in order to obtain valuations in two currencies. Technical solutions are presented for the projection of financial magnitudes and capital cost, expressed in real and nominal terms. In order to study and illustrate its operation, the case analysis method is employed. Results obtained indicate that during a market balance, the current value of cash flows discounted in two currencies, obtained from financial magnitudes projected and expressed in different purchase power, are consistent if all variables that explain the company’s value (cash flows, weighted average capital cost, and continuity value) are calculated by taking the impact of inflation into consideration. For this purpose, expected, cash, and future exchange rate, interest rates, and local and foreign expected inflation should be obtained by applying the parity theory.
