Abstract

Zusammenfassung Die Literatur zur Unternehmensbewertung bietet zur Bewertung von Verlustvorträgen verschiedene Verfahren an: Indirekte Vorgehensweisen berechnen den Wert als Differenz zwischen dem Wert eines Unternehmens mit und demjenigen des gleichen Unternehmens ohne Verlustvortrag, direkte Vorgehensweisen hingegen als Barwert künftiger Steuerersparnisse. In der praktischen Anwendung werden die Steuerwirkungen häufig nicht zustandsabhängig, sondern auf der Basis des Erwartungswerts der Vor-Steuer-Gewinne ermittelt. Als Diskontierungssatz werden zum Teil die Eigenkapitalkosten des Unternehmens empfohlen. In diesem Beitrag werden die unterschiedlichen Vorgehensweisen analysiert und beurteilt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass für eine korrekte Bewertung die Pfadabhängigkeit der Steuerersparnisse zu berücksichtigen ist. Die A nwendung der U nternehmens-Kapitalkosten führt zu einer generellen Unterschätzung des Verlustvortrags-Werts. Auch die Wertermittlung basierend auf erwarteten Vor-Steuer-Gewinnen führt zu Abweichungen vom korrekten Ergebnis. Basierend auf risikoneutralen Bewertungsmodellen und Monte-Carlo-Simulationsmodellen werden die Einflussfaktoren auf den (korrekten) Wert des Verlustvortrags und auf die durch die Anwendung der Standard-Diskontierungsverfahren verursachten Abweichungen diskutiert.
