Graphical Summary of the Basic Ideas on Valuation

Abstract:     
This is a summary of the basic ideas on valuation depicted as a conceptual map. Under the assumption that Capital Asset Pricing Model, CAPM, works and that the discount rate for the tax savings is Ku, I show the sequence of calculations and interactions among the variables, beta, values, cash flows and discount rates. We might consider that Ku is the origin of everything.
