MCP Server¶

The Intangible Valuation MCP (Model Context Protocol) server exposes all valuation methods as tools for AI agents.

Overview¶

The MCP server provides AI agents with access to:

Time value of money calculations
Discount rate construction (build-up, CAPM, WACC)
Relief from Royalty valuations
Purchase Price Allocation
Monte Carlo simulation
Decision tree analysis
Goodwill calculation
Royalty benchmarking

Setup¶

Installation¶

pip install intangible-valuation[mcp]

Configuration¶

Add the MCP server to your AI agent configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "intangible-valuation": {
      "command": "intangible-valuation-mcp",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}

Running Standalone¶

Available Tools¶

Time Value of Money¶

Tool	Description
`present_value`	Calculate PV of a single future cash flow
`future_value`	Calculate FV of a present amount
`annuity_pv`	Calculate PV of an ordinary annuity
`perpetuity_pv`	Calculate PV of a perpetuity
`growing_annuity_pv`	Calculate PV of a growing annuity
`terminal_value`	Calculate terminal value (Gordon Growth or Exit Multiple)

Discount Rates¶

Tool	Description
`build_up_discount_rate`	Build-up method with risk premiums
`capm_discount_rate`	CAPM cost of equity
`wacc`	Weighted Average Cost of Capital
`dlom_finnerty`	Finnerty model for lack of marketability
`control_premium`	Control premium calculation
`tax_amortization_benefit`	TAB present value

Valuation Methods¶

Tool	Description
`relief_from_royalty`	Relief from Royalty method with TAB
`reproduction_cost`	Depreciated reproduction cost
`replacement_cost`	Depreciated replacement cost
`purchase_price_allocation`	Full PPA waterfall
`goodwill`	Goodwill as residual

Example Usage¶

An AI agent can call the tools like this:

Tool: relief_from_royalty
Arguments:
  revenue_projections: [1000000, 1100000, 1200000, 1300000, 1400000]
  royalty_rate: 0.05
  discount_rate: 0.12
  tax_rate: 0.25
  useful_life: 5

Result:
  value: 387654.32
  method: Relief from Royalty
  tab_factor: 1.23

Architecture¶

The MCP server is built with FastMCP and exposes all valuation functions as tools with:

Full parameter validation via Pydantic
Rich descriptions for each tool
Structured JSON responses with calculation steps
Error handling with detailed messages

Development¶

# Run the server in development mode
python -m mcp_server.server

# Test MCP tools
python -c "from mcp_server import tools; print(tools.list_tools())"
