An automated system (100) and method for analyzing, modeling and valuing
elements of a business enterprise on a specified valuation date. The
performance of the elements are analyzed using search algorithms and
induction algorithms to determine the value drivers associated with each
element. The induction algorithms are also used to create composite
variables that relate element performance to enterprise revenue, expenses
and changes in capital. Predictive models are then used to determine the
correlation between the value drivers and the enterprise revenue,
expenses and changes in capital. The correlation percentages for each
value driver are then multiplied by capitalized value of future revenue,
expenses and changes in capital, the resulting numbers for each value
driver associated with each element are then added together to calculate
a value for each element.
