I have been told by the accountant, a rough back of a fag packet guide, all a company is worth is about half its annual turnover!:weird:

When we finally realise that we are just a number on a wage slip and we can be replaced .There was a time back when i was in my twenties when i thought i was irriplaceable and was arrogant with it as well and thought i new it all but one day a old scaff called Ernie who worked for UBM pulled me aside and gave me a reality check and thats when i realised that if i walked out today then someone else will fill my boots tomorrow, the funny thing is that i still see the arrogance in these young scaffs.

It's pritty much business norm.turnover is irrelivant the big P is what counts,u could get upto 8 x profit if the buyer really wants it,have fun

[Rigger]

Must agree bottom line for me every time, and the old overheads figure

Then there is the maxim a thing is only worth what it will fetch on the open market at the time of sale :sad:

 

[Tribute]

Its only worth what somone is willing to pay for the company.

 

[SWIFTY]

99 times out of 100 it's only worth the value of materials and vehicles etc. minus debt of course. Goodwill went out the window years ago.

 

[Proscaff]

Profit x 6 + Assets - Debt=£?????

I like your way, does anyone want to buy Proscaff?????

Shiiite according to that i'm only worth £1.25 - accountants spent too much money keeping tbe tax down lolo

 

[bigfish]

Not many company's show a profit or if they do then get it spent before you get a tax bill for it,as swifty says any business sale will only realise what the hard assets are worth minus any debt,but you may get a good price if you have prestigious contracts and bigger firms want a piece of your goose that lays them golden eggs

I think sometimes your exhisting client base & diary can be worth as much as your stock
