Curriculum

01

Introduction

We introduce the course and tell you about what you will learn.

02

Build an ROI Model – Return on Investment

Learn to build your first model from scratch! In this lesson you will estimate what your return on investment (ROI) will be for a short term project of selling t-shirts to Pareto Labs customers.

03

Build an NPV Model – Net Present Value

In this lesson you will learn how to build a model for a longer term investment. You will build a model using the net present value method (NPV) to determine whether buying a t-shirt printing press would be a good investment.

04

Build a DCF Model – Discounted Cash Flow

Building on the previous lesson, in this one you will learn how to build a model to evaluate whether it makes sense to invest in a longer term business opportunity. In this case, you will be estimating whether or not Pareto Labs should start a t-shirt business, which means a much larger investment that is measured over a much longer time period.
