• How much is the forced liquidation value of the company?
Summary:
• Liquidation value refers to the value of a company if it were to be dissolved and its
assets sold individually.
• Liquidation value is the most conservative valuation approach among all as it
considers the realizable value of the asset if it is sold now based on current
conditions.
• Liquidation value is appropriate in the case of business failures, end of business
life, and depletion of scarce resources.
• The liquidation value considers the present value of the sums that can be obtained
through the disposal (i.e. sale) of the assets of the firm in the most appropriate
way, net of the sums set aside for the closure costs, repayment of the debts and
settlement of all liabilities, and net of the tax charges related to the transaction
and the costs of the liquidation process itself.
