Recorded Webinar: What's It Worth: Valuing a Business in Family Property Settlements

When parties separate and commence property settlement proceedings, one of the more challenging steps can be valuing interests in business assets owned by either party. Business valuations are tricky, and not without expense. This session looks at the key valuation issues involved with businesses and covers:

• Identifying relevant interests in a business – either owned personally, or through any form of corporate entity, trust or partnership structure
• When should you obtain a third party valuation?
• The role of the forensic accountant
• Determining fair market value – asset based approach v earnings based approach
• Business valuation – how is it done?
  • goodwill
  • assets
  • stock
  • leases
• “Double dipping” and s. 75(2) – does the business have other associated benefits – security, future income, provision of payment of non-business expenses
