EVA and DCF-valuation
•Two different expressions from the same thing:
–EVA-valuation produces exactly same valuation (fair value) as DCF
–Actually in EVA valuation the book value of equity is off no meaning: the bigger book value, the bigger capital costs and thus the smaller EVA  (what is left and what only has meaning to valuation is cash-flow)
–EVA is only another way (a more illustrative way) to calculate DCF valuation

(To be precise: in DCF-valuation you do not discount Net earnings but cash flow, but here  we assume that investments are exactly as big as depreciation and working capital does not change and thus Net Earnings = FCFF)
