Why You Should Attend:

Whether known through FASB 141(r), ASC topic 805, or simply purchase price allocation, the combination of businesses can create a confusing matrix of accounting and valuation considerations. These obstacles would be challenging enough to overcome without worrying about compliance with the standards set forth through statements issued to supposedly provide guidance.

In the "Advanced Workshop on Valuation Issues Under ASC 805 and Business Combinations" BVR welcomes expert appraiser Mark Zyla for a special, intensive and interactive four-hour workshop addressing these challenges. Through hands-on examples, case studies, and interactive webcasting, participants will learn the nuanced techniques to best overcome these obstacles from the convenience of their home or office as Zyla provides instructive from his Atlanta offices via a live video feed.
