This is very complicated and no valuation calculator can accurately determine the true and accurate value of your business. Only an experienced certified
business broker can determine the true and accurate value of your business. The following are some of the factors that go into consideration.
- Location
- Lease terms and size
- Competition
- Quality of employees & length of their employment
- Sales & income history
- Current industry risk factors
- Do you work full-time, semi absentee or absentee
- Is your business relocatable
- Ability to secure financing
- Accuracy of your books & records
- Amount and quality of inventory
- Condition of furniture and equipment
- Internet presence
- Comparable market analysis of similar businesses sold
As you can see a valuation calculator cannot address all of these factors, only an experienced certified
business broker can help you determine the right price to sell your business.
