Establishing Fair Market Values
Value is an issue that affects many business decisions. It can determine life insurance needs, sale or purchase prices, estate values, retirement plans, tax liabilities, and damage claims. BIK & CO works directly with business owners and individuals or provides support to a client’s attorney, accountant, financial planner, bank, or other advisor to help establish proper value.
Our Role
As your valuation professional, our role is to determine and document the market value of tangible and intangible assets. We provide an independent, unbiased opinion that reflects the most accurate measurement of the asset(s) being valued. Our certified professionals are trained to prepare clear, defensible reports that explain key variables in the analysis and look beyond simple facts and figures.
Your Needs
You can define the level of support needed. Some clients need a documented, supportable valuation that can be brought to court if necessary. Others need a summary level analysis to develop a benchmark value range. For example, a partnership needing life insurance on its owners may need a summary analysis to measure the value of the business to purchase the proper level of life insurance for each partner in the event of death or career-ending incident. A more detailed analysis may be required if a company’s owners are in a dispute. No matter what your valuation needs are, BIK can help you determine the proper value.
