Business Appraisals

The business appraisal is a detailed process that establishes a
determination of value for a business at a specific point in time. The
majority of Design Capital client services involve the transfer of
ownership of a business ’s assets.  The business appraisal is an
important initial step. The following client services are based on the
business appraisal:

>business sale transactions
>associate buy-ins
>partnership buy-ins.
>merging two businesses

While performing business  appraisals for transaction purposes
remains the primary reason for appraisals, there are other non-asset
transferring reasons which require a business appraisal. These
include,

>tax court disputes,
>legal procedures—marital dissolutions, partnership disputes, etc.

Lastly, a rapidly expanding use of business appraisals is for business   
management and various strategic planning programs. Because the    
business appraisal assesses the profitability of the business and the
risk associated with the business ’s ability to maintain the profitability,
the business appraisal is recognized as a superior management tool
and is an integral component of several management related   
programs such as,

Exit Strategy Planning

monitoring the efficiency of long-range planning programs
measuring the business ’s ability to create value.
