2、 On the appraisal methods and differences between the appraisal report no. 40047 and the appraisal report no. 40048:
(I) Zhongfeng pingbao Zi (2022) No. 40047. The specific evaluation method is as follows:
The present value of the estimated future cash flow is estimated. The prediction of future income is entirely based on the current situation of the holders of the asset group, the way, strength and ability to use the asset group, that is, the predicted income that can be obtained by using the asset group according to the current state, use and management level is calculated by the income approach method.
The income approach refers to the evaluation method to capitalize or discount the expected income and determine the value of the test object. The expected future cash flow of the asset group is the cash flow belonging to the asset group, the corresponding discount rate is the weighted average cost of capital before tax, and the evaluation connotation is the value of the asset group.
The expected future cash flow model of the asset group can be divided into cash flow before (income) tax and cash flow after (income) tax. The pre tax cash flow discount model is selected for this appraisal. The basic calculation model is:
Benchmark date of recoverable assets: P
RI: expected pre tax free cash flow in the I year after the benchmark date
A: Expected pre tax free cash flow in the perpetuity period
r: Pre tax discount rate
n: Forecast period
The parameters are determined as follows:
1. Determination of free cash flow RI in year I
RI = ebitdai – increase in working capital I – capital expenditure I
2. The discount rate r adopts the weighted average capital cost RBT before (income) tax, and the formula is as follows:
( )
r
Where: Ke: cost of equity capital
Kd: capital cost of negative interest debt
T: Income tax rate

Including: Ke: cost of equity capital
RF: risk free rate of return
β : Equity system risk coefficient
MRP: market risk premium
ε : Specific risk adjustment coefficient of the assessment object

Therefore, the income period is considered to be sustainable.
According to the current operating conditions, business characteristics, market supply and demand of the holders of the asset group, the forecast provided by the holders of the asset group, and comprehensively considering the relevant requirements of the accounting standards for Business Enterprises No. 8 – asset impairment, the forecast period is determined as five years, i.e. 20222026.
(II) Zhongfeng pingbao Zi (2022) No. 40048. The specific evaluation method is as follows:
According to the professional standards for asset appraisal – enterprise value, the discounted cash flow method is a method to evaluate the value of assets by converting the expected future net cash flow of the enterprise into the present value. The basic idea is to obtain the appraisal value by estimating the expected net cash flow of the asset in the future and converting it into the current value at an appropriate discount rate. The basic conditions for its application are that the enterprise has the basis and conditions for sustainable operation, there is a relatively stable corresponding relationship between operation and income, and the future income and risk can be predicted and quantified. The biggest difficulty of using discounted cash flow method lies in the prediction of future expected cash flow, as well as the objectivity and reliability of data collection and processing. When the prediction of future expected cash flow is more objective and fair and the selection of discount rate is more reasonable, the valuation results are more objective.
