Business Valuations
What is your business or business ownership interest worth? The answer depends on a variety of issues, many of which are complex and far removed from simple calculations. Accounting standards for financial reporting require the valuation of identifiable intangible assets for purchase price allocations and recurring testing of goodwill for impairment.
Valuation for financial reporting requires a thorough understanding of current and changing accounting standards as well as the use of multiple valuation techniques.
