The word value means different things to different people. Even to the same person, value means different things in different contexts, as we discussed in the previous section.
Without carefully defining the term value, the conclusions reached in the valuation report have no meaning.
Is the objective of the valuation to estimate fair market value, market value, fair value, true value, investment value, intrinsic value, fundamental value, insurance value, book value, use value, collateral value, ad valorem value, or some other value?
I really enjoyed this book - Shannon P. Pratt, Alina V. Niculita did an awesome job! Probably Valuing a Business: The Analysis and Appraisal of Closely Held Companies is the best book I read last years
