As any appraiser will tell you, there is a fundamental difference between price and value, often highlighted by the sale of a recently-appraised business at a price far from the assessed value. In this case, the gap between price and value may be of small consequence; in the assessment of underlying assets, market comparables, and with appraiser bias, this gap can jeopardize even the most reasoned and objective determinations of value.

In "Price and Value: Discerning the Difference, an Advanced Web Workshop" Dr. Aswath Damodaran joins BVR for a thorough examination of the differences between price and value, their determinations, and, ultimately, the consequences of feedback between these two concepts. Following his presentation, Damodaran, one of the most insightful and sought-after voices in valuation, will host a live Q&A session.
