    A

    Explanation:

    Option A does not provide a constructive answer which can guide one in knowing the merits of the Discounted Cash Flow Method over other valuation techniques such as the Mutiples method.

    As there is need to generate estimates of future cash flows and cost of capital of capital to enable the determination of the PV of cash flows, there is also need to generate indices such as PER to determine the value of a firm using the Multples method. Thus, none of the methods are easy and does not require time to assimilate properly. On the strength of this, option provides a very weak argument.
