Let’s Begin

Don’t worry if you can’t. Most business owners are unaware how to estimate the value of their business.

The same way a stock price in the stock market can tell you the value of the company, it is imperative that all small business owners have an estimated value (or price) of their business, even if you are not going to sell your business.

Absolutely you would make business decisions that would try to increase the value of your business. Although you pay yourself a wage and through distributions, ultimately the 3rd way you are compensated is when you sell your business. You need to start preparing now and not wait until 6 months before to make changes to your business to increase the value of your business.

Instead of paying thousands of dollars to obtain a formal business valuation, you can use this simple Business Price Calculator to help estimate the business price. We intentionally made this Business Price Calculator extremely easy to use so you are motivated to use it and make business decisions from the results.

It can take between 3 – 5 minutes to complete. You can be as informal or exact as you want when inputting the financial data requested.

If you want a formal business valuation for purposes of a applying for a loan etc. which typically costs between $2,500.00 to $10,000.00, you should contact your CPA or other business valuation entities that provide this type of service. We created the Business Price Calculator to be simple, quick and easy to use in order to assist business owners make better business decisions increase the value/price of their business.

Question #1 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is your average Monthly revenues/gross sales?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: We understand that business revenues may be cyclical throughout the year. However, do your best to give us the average monthly total revenues. Give us your best estimate or you can simply add up the last 12 months of revenue and divide it by 12. Example: $120,000.00 (total 12 month revenues) / 12 = $10,000.00 average monthly revenues.

Question #2 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is your average Monthly Cost Of Good Sold (“COGS’)?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Not all businesses have Cost of Goods Sold (COGS). If you do not, put 0 in the field. COGS refers to the direct costs attributable to the production of the goods sold in a business. This amount includes the cost of the materials used in creating the good along with the direct labor costs used to produce the good. It excludes indirect expenses, such as distribution costs and sales force costs.

Question #3 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is your average Monthly expenses?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: We understand that business expenses may be cyclical throughout the year. However, do your best to give us the average monthly total expenses. Give us your best estimate or you can simply add up the last 12 months of expenses and divide it by 12.
Example: $120,000.00 (total 12 month revenues) / 12 = $10,000.00 average monthly expenses.
Very Important: Do not deduct your salary or non-business expenses paid by the business. This will happen later. One good source to get your expenses is from your Profit and Loss statement, if not give us estimates.

Question #4 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is the average Monthly W-2 income that you pay yourself?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Some owners pay themselves just like they pay their employees. If you pay yourself a wage and take out payroll taxes (as you do for your employees), then add it as your response to this question. Make sure your answer indicates your average monthly wage paid to yourself.

Question #5 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is the average Monthly distribution/cash/non
W-2 income that you pay yourself?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Business owners can also pay themselves on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis with cash, depositing money into their account or writing a check to themselves but never paying payroll taxes on it (like you do with a W-2 payment). This is method of payment is also known as a distribution or dividend. Your answer to this question is the average monthly payment you make to yourself. If you pay yourself one time, every year than take the yearly amount and divide by 12.
Example: $12,000.00 (Year) / 12 months = $1,000.00 average monthly distribution.

Question #6 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is the average Monthly amount of non-business-related expenses paid by your business?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Pay extra attention to how you calculate your estimated answer to this question. It is very common that businesses pay for non-business-related expenses. This non-business expense can be an amount paid consistently (weekly, monthly) or it may fluctuate.
Example#1: Business owner makes a monthly auto insurance payment using their business account when the business owner’s vehicle is not necessary to run the business.
Example#2: Business owner on a daily or weekly basis uses their business account to pay for meals, grocery and gas, expenses not necessary to operate the business.
Based on the two examples above, think about what the average monthly non-business expenses are paid by your business, and that will be your answer.

Question #7 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is average Monthly amount of “interest” expenses paid?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: If a business pays for any type of loan or lease, almost always part of the payment made is allocated to the interest of that loan or lease. “Interest” paid is always found in your Profit and Loss/Income Statement. If you do not know if your business reflects interest in the tax return or financial statements, then simply put 0 as your answer to this question.

Question #8 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is average Monthly amount of “amortization” expenses paid?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Amortization typically refers to the process of writing down the value of either a loan or an intangible asset. If you do not know if your business reflects amortization in the tax return or financial statements, then simply put 0 as your answer to this question.

Question #9 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what is average Monthly amount of “depreciation” expenses paid?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: Depreciation is the expensing of a fixed asset (e.g. furniture, equipment) over its useful life. If you do not know if your business reflects amortization in the tax return or financial statements, then simply put 0 as your answer to this question.

Question #10 of #16

Over the last 12 months, what non-recurring expense did your business pay which it will not have to pay in the future?
BACK FORWARD
Guide: A classic example is when a business undergoes a renovation. The renovation expenses include labor and materials. This is a one-time expense, only for that year.
Example: Business pays $20,000.00 in renovation expenses. Most likely the next time the business undergoes such a renovation could be 10 years from now. Based on this, the $20,000.00 renovation expense can be considered a non-recurring expense.
In order to answer this question, think about which non-recurring expenses your business has had over the last 12 months. Your answer does not have to be the “average monthly expense”. We just want to know the total non-recurring expense(s) over the last 12 months.
