Includes easy-to-use checklists, formulas, diagnostics, and how-to techniques. From a team of world-renowned KPMG consultants.

The authors systematically identify the intangibles that are crucial to a company's success, and provide a complete, easy-to-implement toolkit for estimating their market value. You'll find checklists, formulas, diagnostics, and practical tips reflecting the experience of global accounting leaders. For all senior managers, financial executives, CPAs, investors, and others concerned with the accurate valuation of knowledge-driven enterprises.
