Haha, yeah, you don't want to use the 'asset-stripping' method on a company with mostly intangible assets. That would be a disaster!

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Financial asset account categories seem like they could be a pretty important consideration too, depending on the nature of the business.

True, but I think the quantity and quality of available data should be the most important factor. If the data is incomplete or unreliable, it doesn't matter how experienced the analyst is.

But what about the experience and judgment of the analyst? Surely that plays a big role in deciding which method to use, even if the purpose of the valuation is clear.

I agree. The purpose of the valuation, whether it's for taxation, financing, or some other reason, should guide the selection of the asset-based approach.

I think this is a tricky question. The purpose and objective of the valuation should be a key factor in determining the appropriate asset-based method to use, not an exception.
