Summary:

The purpose of the case is to determine whether Frosty Footwear Inc. should be sold now or continue to be operated for a later sale at a potentially enhanced business value. Eighty percent of a typical private business owner's net worth is tied up in his or her business. As a result, an accurate determination of the firm's value is essential to ensure proper returns for years of hard work and personal investment. This firm's value is computed using the three major business value approaches--income, market, and asset--with related methods for each approach. Thus, this case is designed to raise the issues of how private companies can be valued. The Frosty Footwear owners had hired a merger and acquisition (M&A) consultant to apply various business value approaches to help assess the key decision on whether to sell now or continue to operate the business.
