As we enter the 21st century, many closely held businesses will need counsel on a variety of planning needs. A privately-held business often represents the largest family asset, impacting gifting programs and settlements in divorce. Additionally, billions in estate taxes are tied to the value of these privately-held businesses.
Valuations also play a vital role as the rise in small business mergers and acquisitions continues.
Business Valuations provide a qualified estimate of the Fair Market Value of a business. This can be vastly different from the book value or investment value. Valuations are a necessary service in many situations of need or adversity. The designation of CVA is awarded to Certified Public Accountants only after completion of rigorous educational requirements and demonstration of the requisite skills in business appraisal.
