Valuation Practice

• Valuation is the practice of estimating a defined
  monetary value for a single or pooled intangible
  asset
• Valuation processes are performed either for
  transactional (such as commercial activities) or
  notational (such as accounting activities)
  purposes.
• Three main approaches to valuation exist (cost,
  market income approaches), each of which have
  specific strengths weaknesses, and therefore
  answer different needs
