I'll study value investment since 2 years all by myself because in France we don't have all the course you got in the states. Especially, i'm trying to pratice bruce greenwald approach. But i have got only his book, which was translated in french. so it'is sometimes difficult to implement the method in pratice. So i would like to know if it's possible to ask you some questions, since i saw that you graduate at the columbia business school : - when calculating the WACC of the company, are you taking the market value of the company equity (=market capitalization) or are you taking the book value of equity ? I wonder because on examples downloadble on the columbia site, i think students are taking equity book value or in the most common definition of WACC, it mentions market value of equity .... - My second question is how do you evaluate market value of long terme debt ? all i have from the annual report of a company is the book value of debt, the interest expens. So how do you do ? Thank you very much for reading my post and maybe answering me. Richard Hello Jonathan
