Why You Should Attend
Despite its widespread use for quantifying the value of intangible assets, the excess earnings method (EEM), or "hybrid" or "formula" approach, remains a challenge for many appraisers. Despite its apparent ubiquity, its full range of applications and proper implementation has created doubt and confusion. In this webinar expert appraiser James Alerding leads listeners through the EEM, its history and its implementation to provide a clear understanding of how to put this valuation tool to best use.
