Answer: The correct answer is "B. present value of all of the future cash flows that will be received".

Explanation: The value of a financial asset is the​ present value of all of the future cash flows that will be received.

To value a financial asset, all future cash flows must be taken into account, therefore their value will be the sum of the present values of each of the future cash flows.
