Resumo:The main objective in this dissertation is to get an accurate estimate about Apple Inc intrinsic value in the end of the respective fiscal year (09/2012) using as valuation method the cost of capital approach. In addition, it is studied the long run relationship adjustment from market price towards respective fair value, using the error correction model. Apple Inc intrinsic value was estimated to be equal to 533.912$ million taking into account 110.505$ million in cash. As a result, Apple Inc equity value per share was estimated to be equal to 568,48$. Additionally, the long run market price equilibrium would be equal to 470,96$ (assuming no changes in the intrinsic value).
