1. Net Asset method of Business Valuation:
Please I want to know if under this method Goodwill or all Intangible Non-Current Assets should be ignored?
Reference: CBE Past paper, March/June 2019 sample questions, question 21.2. I also want to know the similarity and the difference between P/E method of Business Valuation and Earnings Yield method of Business Valuation.

2. They are the same. The PE ratio is MV/EPS, the earnings yield is EPS/MV as a %.
So both methods apply either the PE or the earnings yield to the earnings in order to get the market value.November 28, 2019 at 3:46 pm #554042Wow, thank you Sir. ?
