Business valuation firms: Business valuation is vital when you're seeking outside financing. Many times, the terms of a business loan include a requirement that the company's financial statements be audited by an independent consultant.

Business valuation is also used to determine how much money your business is worth, which will affect the interest rate on any loan or line of credit you apply for. If your business needs to borrow money but isn't sure how much it should borrow, a business valuation can help.

Business valuations are used by businesses of all sizes. Small companies may simply want to know if they're worth more than their current net worth or whether they should take out more lines of credit with banks or suppliers. Larger companies need to determine whether their assets are worth more than the amount that would be owed on them if they were sold today.
