Calculation Valuation Report

« Back to Glossary Index

In business valuation, there are different levels of appraisal or valuation engagements, each with varying degrees of depth, detail, and scope. In Canada, three of the better known types of valuation reports are 1: Calculation Valuation Reports, 2: Estimate Valuation Reports; and 3: Comprehensive Valuation Reports. A Calculation Valuation Report is the simplest level of valuation and contains a conclusion that is based on minimal review and analysis and little or no corroboration of relevant information, and generally set out in a brief valuation report. A calculation valuation report is typically a top-level report that provides limited details—for example, only a minimal breakdown of sales data. Such a report may be suitable to establish a preliminary valuation assessment.
