Intellectual property (IP) valuation is the process of determining the monetary value of a company's intangible assets such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Key methods used in IP valuation include income-based approaches, market-based approaches, and cost-based approaches. Income-based approaches involve estimating the future cash flows that the IP is expected to generate, while market-based approaches compare the IP to similar assets that have recently been sold. Cost-based approaches involve calculating the cost to create or replace the IP. By utilizing a combination of these methods, a comprehensive valuation of IP can be achieved, providing companies with valuable insights for decision-making and strategic planning.
