verdimåling

Verdimåling is a Norwegian term that translates to "value measurement" or "valuation." It broadly refers to the process of determining the economic worth of an asset, property, or business. This can encompass a wide range of applications, from real estate appraisals to business acquisitions and financial reporting.

In the context of real estate, verdimåling involves assessing the market value of a property, taking into account factors such as location, size, condition, and comparable sales. This is often performed by certified appraisers. For businesses, verdimåling can be more complex, considering financial performance, assets, liabilities, market position, and future earning potential.

The purpose of verdimåling can vary. It might be for sale or purchase negotiations, securing financing, insurance purposes, or for legal and tax-related matters. The methodology employed will depend on the type of asset being valued and the specific requirements of the valuation. Different valuation standards and approaches, such as cost approach, income approach, and market approach, may be utilized. The outcome of a verdimåling is typically a documented valuation report outlining the findings and the basis for the determined value.
