IS Assets

[HankHeath@xxxxxxx]

Here's a question that came up recently:

If we are selling a business, how do we value the worth of the IS assets? In 
otherwords, on a balance sheet, what value is retained from IS during a 
transfer to another owner? I can value the hardware easily. However, there 
are also values that can be tacked on for software purchased and developed, 
the unique industry knowledge of the staff (if the new owner can retain 
them), and the ruggedness of the environment. Has anyone a way of attaching a 
value to any of these last items?
