The company I chose for the main project is Microsoft. The valuation
method I would use to valuate Microsoft would be a fair value market
approach. This method would be used to determine the appraisal value
of the business, its' assets, and its' interest and securities by researching
and comparing the market prices of comparable assets and businesses
in the technology industry. Since Microsoft is such a large company and
has such a following, so determining the value of a share of stock should
be determined first by looking at the prices of stock that are similar to it
in its' industry as a baseline, and go from there. This would be a good
jumping off point to see what price is fair to sell shares at from an
industry standpoint and keep a good estimation of the fair value of the
company.
