CONCEPTS OF VALUE EXPERIENCE
Market Value (Fair Market Value)
A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency to be
realized for property in an exchange between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with equity to
both, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell, and both parties fully aware of all relevant
facts as of the effective date of this appraisal report.
Market Value - In Place
A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency to be
realized for property in an exchange between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with equity to
both, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell, and both parties fully aware of all relevant
facts, as installed for intended utilization, as of the effective date of this appraisal report.
Forced Liquidation Value (Auction)
A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency which
could typically be realized at a properly advertised and conducted public auction sale, held under
forced sale conditions and under present day economic trends, as of the effective date of the
appraisal report. Conclusions taken into consideration are physical location, difficulty of
removal, physical condition, adaptability, specialization, marketability, overall appearance and
psychological appeal. Further, the ability of the asset group to draw sufficient prospective buyers
to insure competitive offers is considered. All assets are to be sold on a piecemeal basis ‘as is’
with purchasers responsible for removal of assets at their own risk and expense. Any deletions
or additions to the total assets appraised could change the psychological and or monetary appeal
necessary to gain the price indicated.
Orderly Liquidation Value
A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency which
the subject equipment could typically realize at a privately negotiated sale, properly advertised
and professionally managed, by a seller obligated to sell over an extended period of time, usually
within six to twelve months, as of the effective date of the appraisal. Further, the ability of the
asset group to draw sufficient prospective buyers to insure competitive offers is considered. All
assets are to be sold on a piecemeal basis ‘as is’ with purchasers responsible for removal of assets
at their own risk and expense. Any deletions or additions to the total assets appraised could change
the psychological and/or monetary appeal necessary to gain the price indicated.
New Replacement Cost Value
A professional opinion of the cost expressed in terms of currency, F.O.B. the manufacturer’s
plant, to purchase a new item of like quality and specifications. If such an item is unavailable,
the appraiser has used his or her best judgment in estimating a value as of the effective date of
the appraisal.
Desktop Opinion
A professional opinion of the appropriately defined value, expressed in terms of currency to be
realized by the sale of assets, in which the opinion is generated from lists and/or other
informational materials supplied to the appraiser and evaluated without the benefit of an actual
on site inspection. This opinion is not recommended for use in credit decisions. A desktop
opinion should be used to determine the need for an appraisal or the scope of an appraisal.
