WHAT IS THE MEDICAL PRACTICE APPRAISAL PROCESS?

The Appraisal Process consists of 5 steps:

Defining the appraisal assignment. This involves determining: the purpose & function of the appraisal; the standard of value to be used; a description of the property to be appraised; and, the effective date of the appraisal.

Gathering the pertinent facts involves both internal and external information. Internal information includes: A detailed history of the business, complete tax returns for the last five years, year-end financial statements for the last 5 years, interim financial statement through the effective date of valuation, ownership information; prior stock sales, description of products & services offered, market information, customer information, competition analysis, and other pertinent reports as determined by the appraiser. External sources of information relate to the economy & specific industry.

Analyzing the facts gathered involves a financial analysis of the tax returns and financial statement; determining the company's strengths and weaknesses as compared to its competitors; normalizing the financial statements to eliminate personal or nonrecurring items; and forecasting future performance.

Determining the final estimate of value involves the application and reconciliation of all appraisal techniques used in the Asset, Market and Income Approaches.
Preparing the Appraisal Report. This is the final step in the appraisal process and the length of time to complete this step will depend on the type of report required. In most cases, a summary report describing the results of the valuation will be sufficient. However, if litigation is involved or potentially involved, then the appraiser will be required to prepare a comprehensive self-contained appraisal report. This type of report is extremely detailed and contains all data and valuation steps utilized.
