ADJUSTED BOOK VALUE
A measurement of the valuation of a company after assets and liabilities, off-balance sheet liabilities are included, are adjusted to mirror the true fair market value. One of the probable downside of employing an adjusted book value is that, the true worth of the business may be greater than its stated liabilities and/or assets because it fails to factor in contingent liabilities, account for discounts, or evaluate the intangible assets. Most of the time, it is not considered as an accurate picture of the profitability of the company's operating value, but it can be a mean to capture the potential equity available in a firm.
