In this particular court case, a Chartered Business Valuator presented CBV guidelines as if they were law; (which is not true) and the CBV suggested Eric Jordan by not following CBV guidelines was therefore wrong.
The Judge didn’t buy the CBV argument and ruled in favour of my client who used my Valuation Report.
Let google be your friend for details:
The legislation governing Business Valuations in Canada comes from the Canada Income Tax Act and the Canada Revenue Policy Paper on Business Valuations.
We endeavour to make our methodology the most compliant with the Canada Income Tax Act and the CRA Policy Paper on Business Valuations. We believe following CRA Policy and the Legislation is what is best for our clients.
Again the Judge ruled for our client as you saw.
Any competent lawyer should make the argument that a Business Valuation Report produced
without identifying, measuring, weighing, and valuing ALL of the Intangible assets could and
should be thrown out for “NON COMPLIANCE” with the governing legislation.
Things have changed since 1975 as per chart.
98% of Canadian CPA's do not do business valuations, and for a good reason.
It is generally the big guys and the firms that follow them who push the envelope get caught for non compliance. When they get caught it is never good for the client.
Multi Million Dollar Fines and Settlements are not given out for "singing too loud in the park".

THE CONCLUSION
Times Change.
Before modern medicine, your “barber” was your “dentist”.
Auto manufacturing was owned by Detroit.
Elon Musk and The Venture Capitalists understand the valuation of intangibles in big business and measure them well most of the time.
The answer for small business and private company valuation is best stated in step 3 of our Process. This is the “utility” of the 25 Factors system that makes it unique, transparent, so accurate, and compliance friendly.
Value Normalized Net Income: This requires weighing and determining the multiple or number to be applied and why.
This is where we apply the Position Papers and the “25 Factors Affecting Business Valuation” to produce the required
valuation that is supported by unique facts related to the company as required in Point 7 of the Tax Act Policy Paper.
Trained with, and using my proprietary methodology and system; people well experienced in business ownership, could work with an auction firm or similar business. With my methodology these firms could produce a far superior business valuation than any other group worldwide currently working in the business valuation industry.
If leaders in the auction industry or similar industries would want to work with me anywhere in the world, I am open to a conversation.
Let me know how can I help you.
