So who are the CPA s making their living evaluating the fair market value of business entities ? They are a mixed bag. For some, offering business valuation (BV) has been a natural outgrowth of estate planning. Others have started as expert witnesses for attorneys litigating a divorce, dissolution of partnership or other disputes. Many have found their way to performing valuation services from business and industry careers in finance, investment banking or corporate tax. What brings such a diverse group of CPA s to share this professional path ? Most say they love the niche. "Without a doubt, business valuation is the most exciting part of accounting,” says Cyril Mandelbaum, CPA, of Clifton Gunderson in West Des Moines, Iowa. Mandelbaum was in general litigation support services when a lawyer she worked with suggested she would make a great BV professional. Mandelbaum since has earned three BV designations (ABV, AM and CVA ; for designations, see sidebar below) and is now regional director for business valuation at the firm. Barry Sziklay, CPA, ABV of Cipolla Sziklay Zak & Co., LLC, in West Orange, New Jersey, says his experience as an investment banker gave him the drive - and confidence - to pursue BV. Sziklay worked at an investment banking firm in Manhattan for ten years. Accounting, investment analysis and tax planning formed the backbone of his expertise in business valuation. Both CPA s love the appraising business. They earn more now that they offer this service, and they feel good about the opportunity to spread their wings beyond the scope of traditional accounting. Sounds great, but is it an option for everyone ? Sziklay says that BV is a highly challenging business requiring an unusual set of skills. “It is not for the faint of heart,” he says. To learn if you have the right stuff to pursue a career in business valuation and how to get the training you’ll need to do it, read on.
