C. Marketability Discount 1. Introduction The parties agree that, to reflect the lack of a ready market for the transferred interests, an additional discount should be applied to the partnership’s NAV (after applying the minority interest discount) for purposes of determining the fair market value of those interests. Such a discount is commonly referred to as a “marketability discount”. The parties disagree on the appropriate magnitude of that discount in the context of the transferred interests.Page: Previous 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Next
