Meaning of term discounted cash flow :

 

Discounted cash flow is an investment appraisal technique that helps firms assess whether a particular investment is worthwhile. DCF takes account of when the revenues from the investment take place. This is important because future revenues will have a lower current value and so DCF 'discounts' future revenues using a 'discount rate' to see what they are worth now and therefore whether the investment project is worthwhile.
