Property Valuation
What is a 'going concern value' versus 'real property value' in Hawaii business/property appraisal?
AA. They are identical concepts applicable to all property types
BB. Going concern value includes the business operation's value (goodwill, assembled workforce) in addition to the real property; real property value covers only land and improvements✓ Correct
CC. Going concern value is lower than real property value because businesses depreciate faster
DD. Going concern value is used exclusively for agricultural operations in Hawaii
Explanation
Going concern value applies when real property is integral to a business (hotels, restaurants, golf courses). It includes the real property plus business value elements (goodwill, business name, assembled workforce, customer relationships). Real property value separates out only the land and buildings. Lenders typically lend against real property value, not going concern value.
