There are many reasons why business owners should know how much their business is worth, or know the accurate market value of a business they are interested in purchasing. The procedure for determining the true value of a business including all of its assets can be complex. When the decision is made to sell a business, or a serious interest in buying a business has developed, the next step in the process is obtaining a reliable business appraisal or business valuation. A reliable business valuation includes a comprehensive analysis of the entire business, including all of its assets, as well as the future value of its current and planned operations.
