Learning Objective

  • To identify the business valuation methodologies and standards
  • To identify issues to look for in the cost approach of determining the value of a business or subsidiary
  • To recognize the reasons for performing a business valuation using the Cost Approach
  • To review NACVA and AICPA standards.
  • To identify standards of the valuation set by state statute.
  • To differentiate valuation approaches and how they apply.

Course Overview

The Business Valuation section presents guidance on performing valuations of closely-held businesses and intangible assets, including an overview of the valuation process, the factors to consider before accepting the valuation engagement, and the various methods of valuation. Additionally, it includes tools, aids, and valuation approaches that would facilitate the business valuation process. The cost approach is one of three valuation approaches.

The Cost Approach looks at what it costs to rebuild or replace an asset. It is useful in valuing real estate, such as commercial property, new construction, or special-use properties. Finance professionals do not typically use it to value a company that is a going concern.

This Online Continuing Education Webinar course is designed to be an introductory course on the cost approach used in business valuations and business calculations.

In this CPE webinar attendees will be exposed to various cost approach valuation methodologies. Robert Minniti will discuss why the cost approach is used, and when it is appropriate. He will also discuss the importance of maintaining professional standards so that the valuation opinion can be presented in a court of law. We will review the NACVA and AICPA standards.

This online continuing education Finance webinar covers the following Key Topics: 

  • Valuation Approaches
  • Advantages & Disadvantages of the Cost Approach
  • When to use the Cost Approach
  • Special Considerations while using the Cost Approach

Good job, but the negative examples, i.e. massive theft, etc. are problematic. Sensationalizing items that happen so infrequently is below a professional.

A great overview of the cost approach to valuations as well as touching on the other approaches. Lots of good examples included in the presentation.
