My client is a photographer and has built up a library of 25000 pictures for sale to publishing and publicity companies etc. How should the photographs be valued for the balance sheet, insurance, cost of sales etc?
He currently just uses cost of film divided by number of frames shot. This does not take into account his time, travel, discarded photos, administration, etc. There are also the questions of whether artistic merit and expected future sales should be taken into account.
