A
Small Firm with Large Minds
Experience:
The professional appraisers affiliated with MK
Appraisal Group have impressive and diverse experience
in completing, managing and reviewing valuation conclusions.
The firm’s appraisers are seasoned, well-rounded,
intelligent valuation professionals who bring a solid
track record in a wide range of valuation applications:
financial reporting, tax compliance, corporate finance,
restructurings and litigation support.
Accreditations/Associations:
The firm adheres to the code of conduct and ethical
guidelines outlined by the ASA (American Society of
Appraisers) and USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice). Professionals working with
MK Appraisal Group carry either the ASA (Accredited
Senior Appraiser) or ABV (Accredited in Business Valuation)
credentials or are pursuing these respected certifications.
Continuing Education:
Our professionals maintain the latest knowledge levels
required to properly opine on value:
• AICPA's latest Practice Aids (IPR&D, Fair
Value Audit, Stock-Based Compensation, etc)
• FASB Guidance (FAS-141, 142, 144, Fair Value
Definitions, FAS-150, 123r, 157 etc.)
• IRS Taxation Rules & Procedures (IRC sections
409a 1060 & 338, etc)
• Business Valuation Education - understand/implement
latest valuation approaches.
Independence:
Any conflict of interest hinders objectivity. This issue
is critical as senior management and those with fiduciary
duty continue to re-evaluate the way material corporate
events are analyzed, reviewed, approved and communicated
to markets and stakeholders. ASA (American Society of
Appraisers) codes, USPAP guidance, SEC rules, Sarbanes-Oxley,
recent court cases and sound ethical business sense
help guide us during the appraisal engagement process.
