In a Discounted Cash Flow analysis, using the 'mid-year convention' generally results in:

  1. A higher valuation because cash flows are assumed to be received sooner.
  2. No change in valuation, as it only affects the timing of the terminal value.
  3. A higher WACC because the risk is spread over a shorter duration.
  4. A lower valuation because it assumes a more conservative cash flow profile.
