« 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 comprehensive report offers the highest level of detail and assurance. It involves thorough review and corroboration of information and may include market and economic research and detailed breakdowns of figures. It is common in more complex acquisitions and situations involving litigation or regulatory scrutiny.
