From the Author
For buyers or sellers of small closely-held businesses
This book targets the inexperienced small business buyer or seller of businesses that transfer for $2 million or under. However, larger closely-held company buyers have found it useful too. It is not a technical treatise, nor written with the valuation trade in mind. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The title of the book is very explicit, "A Basic Guide", If you are looking for a general explanation about the valuation process and you are a bussiness related person, you will easily understand this book. It explain a new concept in valuation named "Hybrid Method", which is an interesting author's theory. But, if you are looking for a deep technical detail about this topic I recommend "Valuation" of McKinsey & Co.

This seems to be a fairly narrow treatment - not very helpful, nor easy to read. A much better book is "Unlocking the Value of Your Business."
Format:Paperback
After looking over several other similar titles I decided on this. I am glad I did. The first section of the book which presents the basics of Yegge's valuation system is worth reading twice. The second section, a series of teaching examples, can be skimmed. Then read the last chapter. This book shows that business valuation, after the usual multiple of recastable earnings, is highly subjective. And, that this subjectivity can't be taught easily.
