What determines the cost of a business valuation?
Your cost depends on the time and expenses required by the assignment. Factors include 1) the purpose of the appraisal, 2) the scope of the analysis and report needed, 3) the nature and complexity of the business and make up of its assets, 4) the specific interest being valued, and 5) the amount and quality of information available. It can easily take 40 hours or more to analyze a company, apply accepted valuation approaches, make a final determination of value, and prepare a report. When appropriate, we can provide limited appraisals or computations for less than the cost of a full appraisal. Based on discussions with you or your accountant, attorney or financial advisor, we can help you decide the right level of service. Exit Strategies’ fees are very competitive, and often less than fees charged by large business appraisal firms.
