Troy,
I have reviewed the
valuation report and you can send the final version.
The report is well-done and your assistance is
appreciated.
I'm sure many
professionals could use your services to save them
considerable time on a job that is outside their
normal services.
Historically I prepared
many valuations, but our practice has moved in other
directions and I did not want to go back and re-tread
my old skills.
You saved me the pain of
doing so while allowing me to properly and
efficiently meet my clients needs.
Regards,
Larry

Hi Troy:
You completed a valuation
of Jon's accounting practice in his divorce.
I have another client who
owns a modest motel/hotel in a small town here in
northeast Indiana. I’m looking for an experienced
accountant to appraise it.
Do you work in this area?
If so, how extensive is your work valuing hotels. If
not, do you know anyone whom might have a good measure
of experience?
By the way. We got Jon’s
case settled. Your value was not questioned.
Thanks.

..been using Patton
Valuations for the last 3-4 years.
Nothing but good things to say about them.
I've been using them because of staffing purposes
here. I don't |
|
have enough inflow
here to hire somebody. Troy Patton and
Tony Patrick have been great. I try to
make about $1,000 to $1,500 per valuation
and ... I spend from 2 - 4 hours personally
on each valuation. |

Business Valuation Pricing
On all business valuations
we will sign these as the CPA or you may elect to sign.
The base cost is the cost to recoup our expenses.
The price you charge your client will generally be 3x the base and additional report option fees.
You
generally
make ONE-THIRD of the amount you charge your client.
Example: if you bill your client $3,600 for a business
valuation, you would make 1/3 or $1,200.
This report selection and price list worksheet briefly
describes the features that are included in each report type
and provides a guide for estimating the charges for each report
and feature.
Note that some features are
optional and electing them incurs additional charges.
