CFROI is a valuation that assumes that the Stock Market sets prices based on the company's cash flow and not on the corporate performance and earnings. It is calculated by comparing the gross cash flow generated by the company and the gross investment done into the same.
Formula:
CFROI = Gross Cash Flow / Gross Investment
Here Gross Investment refers to the Market Capitalization of the company.
To calculate the value of each investment based on your required rate of return, you can use the discounted cash flow (DCF) method. This involves estimating future cash flows from the investment and discounting them back to their present value using your required rate of return as the discount rate. The formula is: Present Value = Cash Flow / (1 + rate of return)^n, where n is the number of periods. Summing the present values of all future cash flows will give you the total value of the investment.
MIRR=(sqrt(FVCF/I)^n)-1 MIRR - modified internal rate of return FVCF - future value of a cash flow I - Investment n - number of periods of the cash flow
The main difference between internal rate of return (IRR) and rate of return (ROR) is that IRR takes into account the time value of money and the timing of cash flows, while ROR does not consider these factors. IRR is a more precise measure of return on an investment, as it considers the entire cash flow timeline and calculates the discount rate that makes the net present value of the investment zero. ROR, on the other hand, simply calculates the total return on an investment without considering the timing or value of cash flows.
Discounted cash flow (DCF) is the dominant investment-evaluation technique.
The term average rate of return is referring to the return on an investment. It is calculated by taking the total cash inflow over the life of the investment and dividing it by the number of years in the life of the investment.

It depends on the line items that are recorded to arrive at the cash flow from investment figure. Certain line items might not necessarily qualify for the computation of net capex, for example if a company records say a loan to one of its associate companies in the cash flow from investment segment. Barring such occurences, cash flow from investment will indeed be the same as net capex.

Cash flow notes can be a risky invfestment. There is no gurantee that you are able to get your initial investment back.
Depends how you are calculating return. Typically, NPV (net present value) is the most comprehensive measure of the value of an investment, which is the sum of all discounted cash flows generated by the investment:CF(0) + CF(1)/(1+r)^1 + CF(2)/(1+r)^2 + ... + CF(n)/(r+r)^nWhere CF(n) is the cash flow at the end of year (or period) n, and r is the discount rate (determined by the cost of capital of the investment). Note, NPV should also take into consideration the opportunity cost of the investment (that is, any cash flow foregone by pursuing the current investment as opposed to other alternative uses of the cash). The discount rate should be a measure of the risk associated with the cash flow, and, as mentioned, the cost of capital.IRR (internal rate of return) is another common measure of return on investments, but there are additional caveats with this analysis (it does not take into consideration the scale of the investment, and it does not work for certain sets of cash flows, such as when there are alternating positive and negative cash flow). It is usually benchmarked against some other measure, such as a hurdle rate, to determine whether an investment is profitable.

A free cash flow valuation can sometimes be used to analyze an investment opportunity. However, there are usually better ways to analyze the investment opportunities.
Cash items in the cash flow statement encompasses all items that can be categorised under cash and cash equivalent. these include cash, bank, bank overdraft, short term investment.
