USPAP Compliant Appraisals by the premier appraisal firm in Ohio
Machinery and Equipment Valuations
An accurate appraisal of machinery and equipment allows corporations, bankers, the Small Business Administration (SBA), private equity firms, auditors and lawyers, to assess the value of fixed assets. At Barnes Wendling CPAs, our machinery and equipment appraisals are always USPAP compliant and performed by an ASA accredited appraiser.
Full Appraisal
Every appraisal we conduct adheres to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and is signed by our senior appraiser accredited by the American Society of Appraisers (ASA). The accreditation is a statement to the business, professional, and legal community that our appraiser has attained a level of knowledge in valuations that ASA considers exemplary.
Desktop Opinion of Value
We understand a full appraisal is not always the best solution for every business; therefore, we offer a cost-sensitive solution with a Desktop Opinion of Value. This solution allows us to generate a professional evaluation without an on-site inspection.
Inventory Valuations
Inventory is an unpredictable asset of the business that is constantly changing with new orders, consumer demands, product changes, and other factors. For these reasons, a third-party appraisal may be necessary for risk assessment when considering inventory as collateral. Barnes Wendling CPAs offers accredited and dependable inventory appraisals with cost-effective options.
