Appraisal of cars, locomotives, tank cars and other railway facilities.
In the course of reformation of the Russian railroad industry, the railway
equipment becomes the subject of various transactions, such as sale and purchase,
security and pledge, and contribution to registered capital, with increasing
frequency. Usually, when entering into
such transaction the independent appraiser’s services are required.
The existing railway equipment used today is worn and obsolete that significantly
complicates its appraisal.
The experts of our firm have developed and implemented the car appraisal method
that considers the actual status of equipment subject to appraisal, the remaining
service life, the repair frequency, the turnaround intervals, the material of
construction used for cars and boilers and the equipment value at the end of
run.
Airborne
vehicles is one of the most sophisticated and expensive modern equipment. Airborne
vehicle appraisal services provide for appraisal of aircrafts (helicopters, freight
carriers, passenger carriers) and other airborne vehicles. Sometimes, only some
components of an airborne vessel shall be subject to appraisal for the purpose
of their replacement, such as motor or navigation system.
According to Article 130 of the Russian Civil Code, the airborne vehicles
subjected to the state registration are classified as immovable assets. However,
considering their functions it is reasonable to classify them as the vehicles.
The airborne vehicle appraisal shall be based not only on the general
approaches when the airborne vehicles are treated as a certain class of assets,
but also on the methods that consider their unique features.
The most distinguishing feature of the airborne vehicles is the set of special requirements
prescribed by the special regulations which shall be considered in the course
of their appraisal (for instance, compliance with the specified safety level
and ensuring airworthiness and aircraft performances throughout the service
life).
According
to the applicable civil law (Article 130 of the Russian Civil Code), the ships
and boats subjected to the state registration are classified as immovable
assets. Considering functional and physical properties of this type of assets,
all the waterborne vessels shall be treated as vehicles and, therefore, the
special methods shall be used for their appraisal.
Waterborne vehicle appraisal is one of the critical conditions for the industry
functioning, especially when the sale and purchase market is slack.
Upon your request, we will appraise the waterborne vessels of any type: boats,
ships, mixed river-sea-going ships, running vessels, vessels under
construction, disabled vessels, self-propelled vessels and tugboats.
The most objective result of waterborne vessel appraisal is ensured with the
use of all the recommended approaches. When choosing the appraisal methods, we
consider the customer’s purposes and interests and render advisory services
concerning possibilities to use the appraisal report.
Sooner
or later, every owner faces the necessity of professional appraisal of his/her
motor vehicle. Independent appraiser is involved in motor vehicle appraisal when
it is necessary to determine the selling or leasing price of individual motor vehicles
or enterprises possessing vehicles as their fixed assets and the starting price
for auctions, for privatization or trust purposes, for using of motor vehicle as
a security, for property dispute resolution, etc. Motor vehicle appraisal is also
required for computation of pledge value for loan granting, for registered capital formation, for design
of company’s development strategy to identify the level of technical support
and the possibilities to replace or modernize the old vehicle fleet.
The most fast and reliable way to sell a motor vehicle is its sale at market
price, and for this purpose, the vehicle appraisal is required.
