Description

Given the variety of equipment and the heterogeneity or diversification of application areas, plant and machinery valuation is a broad and difficult field.

Industrial assets such as machinery and plants are valued by taking into account a number of factors that affect their worth. The assessment of specific industrial assets is influenced by the dynamics of supply and demand in the market, which consider factors such as technical complexity and possible impact on competence and productivity. Plant and machinery valuation is a multifaceted procedure that takes many factors into account. It is impossible to cover every facet of plant and machinery assessment in a single book.

I have only touched on a small portion of the essentials that are pertinent to the process of valuing plants and machinery in this book. I have also included two case studies that are based only on my own experiences and may prove helpful to the reader.
