A Message for Attorneys and CPA's

A Certified Machinery & Equipment Appraiser (CMEA) protects BOTH you AND your clients.

Attorneys:

What do you do when your case involves the value of a business' tangible assets, particularly machinery and/or equipment?

If you're like most attorneys, you search out the experts or ask your client to locate a company that handles machinery/equipment appraisals.

BEWARE! Not all machinery/equipment appraisals are created equal! When you need an appraisal for your client, consider whether the appraisal company you choose meets this test.

 

 Protect Yourself and Your Clients

 

A CMEA professional has the expertise, certification and knowledge to conduct an independent, third-party machinery/equipment appraisal. Therefore, the value of each item is substantiated and reflects the realistic true market value of that item. In addition, each CMEA abides by the regulations and ethics of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.

 

Certified Public Accountants: 

The biggest problem and frustration an Accountant or CPA has is determining an accurate Fair Market Value of the business machinery and/or equipment.

What do you do?                                                                            

Rely on book value? (which is not accurate) or Guess? You can eliminate the guesswork and the liability by utilizing the expertise and knowledge of a Certified Machinery and Equipment Appraiser (CMEA).
