Are You Buying Or Selling Your Machinery/Equipment Too Low Or Too High?

Discover How You Can Arrive At A True And Realistic Value.
Why Do You Need To Know The Value Of Your Machinery/Equipment?

As a business owner, at one time or another you will be faced with needing to know

What’s Your Machinery/Equipment Really Worth? What do you do? Guess? Ask a friend? Go by book value? Unfortunately, guessing, friends and book values are risky and inaccurate.

A Certified Machinery & Equipment Appraiser (CMEA) Gives You A Fair Realistic Independent Value You Can Rely Upon.

A CMEA professional has the expertise, certification and knowledge to conduct an independent third party machinery/equipment appraisal. Therefore, the value of any item is substantiated and reflects the realistic true market value of an item. In addition, each CMEA abides by the regulations and ethics of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.

Why Would You Need The Professional Services Of A CMEA?

Sellers need to know that they are not selling to low or pricing their machinery/equipment above the fair market value. Buyers want to know that they are not paying too much to purchase the machinery/ equipment.

In addition, for allocation purposes, the IRS requires buyers and sellers to agree on the value of tangible assets involved with a business transfer. They must “allocate” a particular value for tangible assets as well as goodwill.

A Certified Machinery/Equipment Appraisal holds up under scrutiny with courts, financial institutions, and other lenders. That’s not all, business owners utilize a Certified Appraisal Report in connection with good business sense in the following areas ...

  • Divorce
