The three commonly recognized valuation approaches are the income approach, the market approach, and the asset approach. The income approach considers expected economic benefits, the market approach compares relevant market evidence, and the asset approach considers the value of underlying assets and liabilities. A qualified valuator selects and applies appropriate methods based on the business, purpose, available information, and engagement requirements.
