  • Newark, NJ (1888PressRelease) February 20, 2015 - Eric J. Barr, Member, Fischer Barr & Wissinger LLC was published in the January/February 2015 issue of The Value Examiner. His article, "Valuing Pass-Through Entities Using The Guideline Public Company Method," discusses one of the most commonly applied methods under the market approach - one of three generally accepted approaches to value.

    Pass-through entities (PTEs) comprise approximately 78% of all business entities, yet their valuation is one of the most discussed, controversial and least understood areas of business appraisal practice. Much attention has been focused on valuing PTEs, yet there remains a lack of clarity and consensus. In this article, Barr critiques the manner in which business appraisers have historically applied the Guideline Public Company Method when valuing PTEs and offers a new perspective on how to apply this method.
