Business valuation is more of an art than a science

When valuing a business there are a number of issues to assess including

• The dynamics of the sector in which the company operates
• The unique attributes of the company and how the company compares with similar businesses
• The market perception of the business
• Various business valuation models

There are various models available which will allow you to evaluate the value of a business. However, inputs to these models are based on judgment, which you will acquire from having hands-on experience. The estimated value of a business, when using any of these available models becomes the focal point at which to put a price tag on any business.
