Why do we need a valuation?
Companies do a purchase price allocation for the following reasons
What is a purchase price allocation used for?
A purchase price allocation, or PPA, is an accounting technique used to determine the value of assets and liabilities acquired in a business purchase or M&A transaction. Under the widely adopted international financial reporting standards (IFRS), purchase price allocations remain an important component of financial accounting. In order to correctly account for these purchase transactions, companies undergo intense analyses and record unique values for each type of intangible asset involved. A purchase price allocation typically includes factors such as purchase price accounts payable, debt retirement costs, goodwill, and other burdensome or non-operational liabilities. By properly allocating the purchase price in this way, companies can ensure that their financial statements are accurate and that they comply with IFRS requirements. Ultimately, purchase price allocations help businesses navigate complex asset acquisitions and provide valuable information to investors and stakeholders alike.
Purchase Price allocation Report
A best purchase price allocation report is a type of content analysis that is used to determine the value of an acquired company. The body of the report then provides a detailed analysis of the target company’s assets and liabilities, including both tangible and intangible assets. The report concludes with a valuation analysis that determines the fair market value of the target company. The purchase price allocation report is an important tool for both buyers and sellers in an M&A transaction, as it helps to ensure that the purchase price is fair and equitable.
This analysis is then used to help establish the fair market value of the company and goodwill on acquisition. Purchase price allocation reports are often used in mergers and acquisitions, as they can provide insights into the true value of a company. In addition, purchase price allocation reports can be useful for tax purposes, as they can help to classify which assets are subject to capital gains tax.

Valuation for Intangibles
The valuation of intangibles is a process that involves the identification, measurement, and allocation of the purchase price paid for an entity to the various intangible assets acquired. The valuation of intangibles is commonly performed in connection with mergers, acquisitions, and other transactions in which the purchase price paid includes an allocation to intangible assets. The valuation of intangibles can also be performed for financial reporting purposes, such as when reporting the fair value of goodwill on the balance sheet. There are several methods that can be used to value intangibles, such as the relief from royalty method or the income approach. The selection of the suitable method and valuation approach depends on several factors, including the type of the intangible asset being valued, its importance to business, acquisition value, etc. For example, if the valuation is being conducted for financial reporting purposes, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) will need to be considered. When valuing intangibles, it is essential to consider all relevant factors to arrive at a fair and accurate valuation. Some of the factors that should be considered include:
– The nature of the intangible asset being valued (e.g., patents, copyrights, trademarks, etc.)
– The strength of the underlying intangibles
– Future potential of these intangibles
Valuation of Tangible Assets
The process of allocating the acquisition price among the various components of an asset is known as purchase price allocation (PPA). This process can be quite complex, and it is typically performed by an experienced valuer. The valuation of tangible assets is a key component in the purchase price allocation valuation process. This process is used to determine the fair market value of land, buildings, and factories that are being purchased.. The goal of the PPA process is to arrive at a fair market value for the asset that is being purchased along with the business. There are a number of different methods that can be used to value a property, but the most common approach is to simply look at the purchase price or value using a variety of methods, including appraisals, market surveys, and comparative market analyses This method is often used when valuing land or buildings, as it provides a clear starting point for the valuation process. However, this approach can be problematic when valuing more complex assets, such as factories or businesses. This is an important process to allocate the purchase price among the various components of the asset in order to arrive at a more accurate valuation.
OUR DETAILED APPROACH
Valuation is a complex process, and the right methods depend on different factors like industry, stage of the company, size of the company, business models, etc. We apply unique models for each of our projects based on our detailed analysis.
PRICE CONSIDERATION
First, Company needs to pay the total consideration paid for the acquisitions of the target company. This includes all kinds of cash and non-cash considerations paid or transferred by the company. In the analysis, the company also has to correctly estimate the liabilities paid or assumed in the M&A transaction. These must be appropriately evaluated and included in the calculation of the Price Consideration for the M&A Transaction
Purchase price allocation (PPA) is the process of giving a fair value to all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of a target company. When a private or listed business that compiles financial statements in accordance with IIFRS buys or merges with another business during the merger or acquisition process and has paid the purchase price or consideration in the acquisition, the business must carry out this activity.
Put another way, a price purchase allocation should normally be made in the event of a business acquisition or a change in the company’s management. This approach typically results in some unassigned residual value made up of goodwill in this case, the purchase price given to the target
VALUATION OF TANGIBLE ASSETS
The second step is to find all types of tangible assets like land building, fixed assets, machinery, etc., acquired in the M&A Valuation process. Then, these assets are valued using various methods like cost, market, and income approaches. This must align with different accounting, valuation, and reporting guidelines under multiple rules and regulations.

- Price Consideration : First, Company needs to the total consideration paid for the acquiziation of the target company.

- Valuation of Tangible Assets The second step is to find all types of tangible assets like land building, fixed assets, machinery, etc acquired in the M&A process.

In this process, all assets are analyzed and valued at the fair value using cost, market, and income approaches.
- Calculation of Goodwill : The fourth step is to find the find the goodwill, which is price consideration minus the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets.

In addition to identification of intangibles, global accounting and reporting standards also mandate the regular testing of intangibles and goodwill for the impairment. This has to tested regularly and any fall in the value has to be written off and recorded as the guidelines and standards.
CALCULATION OF GOODWILL

If a buyer prepares financial statements as per GAAP or IFRS and acquires a company, then as per the reporting requirements, the buyer is obligated to carry out a purchase price allocation except in instances when the acquisition is too insignificant and hence, it will be considered unimportant.
The acquirer’s auditor then carries out a thorough analysis of the valuations of the assets and liabilities. In such a case, you need to offer answers to all the questions from the auditor, which could be a few questions or multiple pages of questions.
