For both private companies and public registrants, Fair Value has infiltrated Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) to create entirely new levels of complexity. In fact, more than 50 GAAP pronouncements and interpretations now reference Fair Value, presenting significant challenges for internal finance departments.
MFA’s Fair Value Specialists have a rare combination of expertise in both Fair Value and GAAP that can be applied to provide immediate relief and a smoother overall process that saves time, money and aggravation. Our professionals pinpoint the appropriate information and integrate it into the financial picture to take a significant burden off of clients’ internal resources.
Understanding Fair Value. MFA holds the valuation experience necessary to efficiently assess Fair Value, with professionals with the following credentials: Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV), Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA), Accredited Valuation Analyst (AVA) and Accredited Senior Appraiser (ASA).
Understanding GAAP. From private company stock valuation and FAS 123R to purchase price allocations and goodwill impairment, GAAP is ingrained in MFA’s services as CPAs, auditors and consultants. Our team has deep expertise with companies across many industries, and we are able to incorporate that background in our work as Fair Value Specialists. We can quickly pinpoint how a company’s measurement of Fair Value impacts GAAP, appreciating that minor swings in valuation can have a material effect on the numbers.
