How do I value an accounting practice?

Valuing an accounting and tax business involves considering several factors, including annual sales, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and demographic trends of the local market. Brokers, business owners, and business buyers will typically rely on valuation multiples to gauge business value relative to similar businesses in the market. Revenue multiples among accounting and tax practices listed for sale range from 1.00 to 1.21, with the median at 1.11. Earnings multiples range from 1.75 to 2.81, with the median at 2.22. These values suggest the average accounting and tax practice business in the U.S. may sell for around 1.11 times its annual revenue, and 2.22 times its annual owner’s earnings.
