It involves calculating today’s value for all benefits and costs attributed to an investment;that is discounting all cash flows to today’s value using an appropriate interest rate. This requires each benefit and cost be stated in terms of its cash flow. Urban tree benefits are complex. Little notice is given to the components of these benefits. Total urban tree benefits are a summation of partial benefits, including property value increase, storm water reduction, air quality improvement, carbon sequestration, natural gas savings, and electricity savings. We discuss the nature of these partial benefits, especially the geographical, temporal, diameter size, and rate of growth differences. These differences are even reflected in nursery stock valuation. Net present value analysis is used to illustrate the impact of these differences on financial return. An understanding of these components will prove valuable to those attempting to estimate urban forest and tree benefits.展开更多

L. Rock, R. H. Rock, and Sikora （1994）, valuation is the answer of the following questions： What is the maximum price that will be paid for the firm？ What are the risk areas？ What are the results of cash flows, profitability, and balance-sheet？ Chambers （2005, p. 5）, on the other hand, estimated a probable price that will be paid for the goods and service at a specific time. For the calculation of continuing value （CV）, Verginis and Taylor （2004） used discounted cash flows （DCF） method and Onal, Karadeniz, and Kandlr （2005） used economic profit method. Klrh （2005） suggested Continuous and Constant Growing Model （Gordon Model）, Value Driver Model, and Economic Profit Model. In this study, DCF which is suggested by Onal et al. （2005） and Verginis and Taylor （2004） is used for the aim of determining CV of the firm at issue. In this study, analyses are made by using the financial statement data of a tourism business whose shares are dealt in Istanbul Stock Exchange. In consequence of the calculations, CV of the examined firm is found to be 7,485,402 TL and firm value is found to be 15,195,366 TL.展开更多
