Asset-based approach-This type of valuation is used to value asset-intensive businesses such as retail and manufacturing. The focus is on what the equipment and real estate are worth.
Income approach-This type of valuation is useful for service companies. The focus is on how much money a buyer can make from the business.
Market approach-This type of valuation looks at what the market is paying for similar businesses and is used to value many different types of businesses. The focus is on the marketplace: what others have paid for similar companies.
