ValuSource Pro Version 4.0

What’s new in ValueSource Pro 4.0?

ValuSource Pro – the premiere solution for professional valuation of closely-held businesses. By greatly reducing the burden of creating and maintaining complex spreadsheets and written reports, VSP lets you focus on the high-level thinking necessary for a thorough and accurate valuation. It frees you to apply your valuation expertise, giving you more time to focus on the crucial decisions of the engagement. Save additional time with ValuSource Pro’s optional Report Writer – see a draft report in minutes, not just ‘boilerplate’, but a “smart” standards-based report with the appropriate text and data (numbers, tables and charts from your valuation), all reflecting the standard of care you brought to the valuation, and the decisions you made throughout the valuation process.

Flexible
Built entirely on Microsoft® Excel and Word, ValuSource Pro is not a ‘black box’ analysis package. Instead, all of your financial statements, adjustments, assumptions, and calculations are available and changeable. Move between ValuSource Pro and Excel with the click of a button – see and change formulas and formatting as your engagement and practice standards require. ValuSource Pro will automatically annualize your partial year financial data – and provides you the ability to make adjustments, add and classify accounts and sub-accounts for a more accurate replication of the subject company’s financial statements as well as for developing a more accurate benefit stream.

Comprehensive
Whether you’re doing litigation support, buy/sell analysis, or IRS compliance, VSP has everything you need: complete support for all the standard valuation methods, with room for adding your own custom methods; comprehensive financial analysis, with easy access to indispensable data; thorough testing of your conclusion of value; and optional automatic report generation using the Business Valuation Report Writer.
