Praise for Financial Valuation

"The book has a wealth of detail, practice tips, examples, and extra information, plus sections on business valuation situations not addressed elsewhere. A valuable addition to the literature of business valuation."

"The book sets a fine example in technical yet readable exposition. As the text flows, it is evident [the twenty–five authors] have taken great steps toward achieving uniformity reflecting the various opinions within the profession. This goes a long way toward reinforcing proven methodologies and validating their ‘real world’ application. The well–thought–through categories starting with Standards of Value and legal insights with ‘tried and true’ cases reveal and attest to the depth of [the authors’] experience in business valuation and litigation consulting.
"All of the topics appeal to practitioners of all levels. Value–adding ‘ValTips’ are quite helpful in stimulating broader consideration of each subject and elevating the reader’s perspective."
Parnell Black, MBA, CPA, CVA
Chief Executive Officer
National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts

"This book takes the consensus of many talented appraisers and presents topics in a fashion that has not been seen before in any other valuation treatise. Many of the same old topics are presented, but this time, even I was forced to take a much closer look. This unique approach to many of these topics is a must for the well–rounded appraiser."

"This is a unique publication in that it brings together twenty–five nationally recognized names in the valuation industry to provide practitioners with their consensus ‘school of thought’ on many commonly encountered valuation issues. The author list includes analysts from all the valuation organizations with many current or former members of the AICPA Business Valuation Subcommittee and the AICPA BV Hall of Fame. An excellent reference source for CPAs looking for guidance from some of the top valuators in the nation."
