Machinery and business assets

The valuation of machinery and business assets (also referred to as plant and equipment valuation) can be challenging.

Areas to consider include secured lending valuations, residual value forecasting, treatment of intangibles and intellectual property, insolvency and business recovery, environmental considerations, machinery sales, insurance valuations (reinstatement cost assessments) and cost data.
