  • Determining the value of a business is the starting point and an integral part of the planning process.  At the end of the day, the “fair market value” of a business is the amount agreed upon by a willing buyer and a willing seller. Neither party is under any compulsion to buy or sell, and both must have reasonable knowledge of all the relevant facts. The carriers use various methods to determine the insurable value.

  • The benefit will be based upon the client's share of the monthly expenses of the business
