Definition / Objective
Machinery and Equipment Appraisal – Machinery and equipment appraisals are special, given the variety of possibilities in the market for their application. This type of appraisal seeks to determine the value of individual elements or groups of elements, which may be very unique, and which may increase in value depending on if they are grouped together or not. The location, the state of the asset, the current use are all considerations when completing this type of appraisal. The valuations of machinery and equipment have the following uses: IFRS reporting, purchase or sale, insurance, liquidation, transfer of assets and for internal decision making.
