Estimating the value of the business
is very important for a business man. A very common reason for business
valuation is Gift and estate tax situation. In case, an owner passes away, the business is taken over by
other partners or family members. One rather nasty task they need to handle
quickly is how to pay the very large estate taxes.
The business people aim at
highest possible business valuation result, but Gift and Estate Tax Valuation
is something different. In this case, business owners try to get lowest
possible tax value that they need to pay. Fair market value is the typical
standard used to value businesses in gift and estate tax situations. The subtle
difference you need to know about is that the definition of this standard may
differ from that used in business acquisition scenarios.
Specifically, gift and estate tax
valuations consider what the business is worth to a hypothetical business buyer
without regard to special synergies that could result in a higher potential
business selling price. If you plan to use the income based methods such as the
Discounted Cash Flow, be aware that conservative earnings forecasts are usually
acceptable as long as they are realistic. Gift and Estate tax valuations need to be calculated wisely as the tax officers
will surely question if they find out the low tax amount for the business. Thus
for Gift & Estate tax valuation, one must hire a business consultant with
experience and perfection.
