Pass the CVA by knowing what NACVA actually tests — the standards and premises of value, normalization adjustments, the three approaches and when each controls, capitalization versus discount rates, CAPM, build-up and WACC, the restricted stock and pre-IPO studies, how DLOC and DLOM combine, and the S-corp tax-effecting debate — instead of rereading a shelf of valuation treatises. CVA Exam Study Guide is a focused, fully offline companion for NACVA's Certified Valuation Analyst credential, organized exactly like the Core Body of Knowledge for Business Valuations — all nine sections, weighted the way the exam weights them — so you can drill the heavy sections hard and still cover every corner. SIX WAYS TO STUDY • Flashcards — tap to reveal, tagged by BOK section • Multiple-choice questions set in real engagement scenarios, each with a worked explanation • True/false drills built from the misconceptions that cost marks • Term-matching game — pair key terms in rounds of five • Searchable glossary of the valuation, statistics, and cost-of-capital vocabulary the exam assumes you know • Formula reference — Gordon Growth, cap rate, CAPM, build-up, Hamada unlevering, WACC, pre-tax conversion, excess earnings, DLOC/DLOM combination, and the rest — each with its variables and its trap ALL NINE SECTIONS, EXAM-WEIGHTED • Valuation Approaches (28%) — income, market and asset approaches: DCF and capitalization, Gordon Growth and terminal values, excess earnings, guideline public companies and transactions, adjusted net assets, sanity checks and reconciliation • Cost of Capital (17.5%) — CAPM, Modified CAPM and build-up, size and company-specific premia, industry risk, beta unlevering, WACC, pre-tax conversion, Fama-French, APT and the Risk Rate Component Model • Quantitative Analysis (15.5%) — financial statement analysis, normalization, statistics from coefficient of variation to regression, and defining the benefit stream • Discounts, Premiums, and Other Adjustments (13%) — levels of value, DLOC and DLOM with the empirical studies behind them, control premiums, key person, blockage, subsequent events • Qualitative Analysis (9%) — economic, industry and company analysis that actually moves the model • Special Purpose Valuation (5.5%) — intangibles, debt and convertibles, preferred stock, options, personal versus enterprise goodwill, ASC 820 fair value, pass-through entities • Plus Overview, Professional Responsibilities and Standards, and Engagement Acceptance and Planning — standards of value, ethics and independence, USPAP and SSVS, engagement letters and conflict checks BUILT LIKE THE EXAM The CVA exam is a five-hour proctored test of multiple-choice and true/false questions drawn from NACVA's Core Body of Knowledge. This app mirrors that structure: the same nine sections, the same emphasis, both question formats. STUDY ANYWHERE Everything works offline. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no data collection.
