Lighting Components Inventory Appraisals

Lighting Components Inventory AppraisalsM&E Appraisal Associates, Inc. (“M&EAA”) provides certified lighting components inventory appraisals. M&EAA recently appraised the inventory of a large volume lighting components manufacturer and distributor.

The subject inventory appraised included raw materials (coil steel, cord, wire, etc.), work in progress (WIP), and purchased parts, components, and finished goods.

Appraisal conclusions: the finished goods and purchased parts/components were typically well matched to customer demand, and yielded high orderly liquidation recovery value. Concluded values for these more desirable/higher margin inventory categories typically ranged from 75% to 90% of normal selling price. Slow moving, and/or obsolete inventory items typically had low orderly values ranging from 10% to 20% of cost. The blended average aggregate Orderly Liquidation Value was approximately 50% of the subject company’s inventory book cost.

Forging Equipment Appraisals

M&E Appraisal Associates, Inc. (“M&EAA”) provides certified forging equipment appraisals. M&EAA recently appraised the machinery & equipment of a forging company who is a provider of parts primarily utilized by the agricultural equipment manufacturing industry.

The subject machinery & equipment appraised included large capacity drop forging hammers, forging presses, induction furnaces, and gas fired slot furnaces. Other subject machinery & equipment appraised included CNC machine tools, standard machine shop equipment, custom manufactured assembly machines/cells, material handling equipment, forklifts, and other related warehouse & support equipment.

Appraisal conclusions: the forging presses were older, and had limited market demand, particularly under the removal value concept contemplated. The subject assets inherently had much higher valued when considered in place/for continued use. Forging dies have no value (scrap) in liquidation. When considered for continued use, the dies had extremely high values.
