valuation
Determining monetary worth
Valuation is the process of determining what something is worth, or the figure arrived at through that process.
Financial professionals perform valuations on companies, real estate, and assets to establish fair market prices for buying, selling, or taxation purposes.
The startup's valuation exceeded one billion dollars after the latest funding round.
Unlike value, which can be abstract or subjective, valuation typically implies a formal assessment expressed in monetary terms.
