Income Capitalisation Method of Valuation


One of the various methods of valuing businesses, is the Income Capitalisation Method.

Income Capitalisation Method assumes that the business will continue in operation even after it is sold. It projects the future income of the business based on historical performance adjusting for estimated changes. Historical financial statements and estimates are used for projecting the future financial statements.

Capitalisation rate - The capitalisation rate is the rate of return required to take on operating the business – higher risk leads to higher capitalisation rate. Capitalisation rates are determined based in on the riskiness of the business as well as based on capitalisation rates of comparable companies.
Comparable Capitalisation Rate can be calculated as Net income / Market Value. This would give us the capitalisation rate for comparable companies.

Net Income / Earnings – The Net Income or the Earnings are used for calculating the Market Value of the company. It is important for this figure to be well representative of the true nature and position of the business. For stable businesses, last three years’ average may be used. Some analysts also use the weighted average of the last three years’ net income. Wherever possible, using the forecasted earnings is best used for calculating the market value.

The value of the business would then be calculated as:

Value = Net Income / Capitalisation Rate
Example:
Net Income = Rs 550,000
Capitalisation Rate = 8.5%
Value = 550,000 /0.085 = Rs 6,470,588

Why is Rupee depreciating then?

The US Economy is weakening, why is Rupee depreciating (as compared to dollar) then? The rupee slumped to a five-year low of 47.10 in spite of the slowdown in the US Economy. Ideally when a country is in the slowdown the currency of that country should depreciate. Fine that India is slowing down too but is still growing at a rate more than the US. But why is the Rupee depreciating then. There is heavy dollar-demand from oil refiners and importers. Sentiment for the local currency was further dampened by losses on the stock markets on Monday (29-Sep-08). But the central bank intervened by selling up to $1 billion which helped prop up the rupee. We have the inflation climbing the ladder very fast with remote signs of coming down. The crude oil prices are extremely volatile. The GDP forecast is also trimmed every now and then. The current account deficit is widening. With not many positives in sight, traders see the rupee trading in the 47-per dollar range for the next few days. At the cu...
