mtt Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 How do you figure out what your business name and web site is worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 What are others charging for roughly the same thing in your area? That is where I'd start. Tweak it as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtt Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 I have someone that wants to purchase my website and business name and I do not know what to charge. I am going out of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrinningGoblin Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 If you haven't already arrived at an answer, I'd say it depends. Are you selling any stock or materials, or just the website and name? In general you would calculate the purchase price of your business by taking your discretionary cash flow and multiplying it by a modifier based on demand, reputation, and customer base. Discretionary cash flow is the actual, verifiable profit your business generates in a year less materials and expenses. Appropriate modifiers fall between 1 and 2.5 in most circumstances. To this number you would then add the price of any assets you are including in the sale. However, this all assumes that your business is profitable and up and running. If not then it is worth exactly what they are willing to pay for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
