Market approach: value from comparable transaction revenue multiples or capitalize a royalty stream into a perpetuity value. Method selects the formula. Use when reliable comparable transactions or royalty rates exist for the subject asset. For income-based excess earnings use valuation_income_methods; for royalty-rate selection and adjustment use valuation_royalty_analysis. Per method: comparable_transactions needs comparables + subject_revenue (optional: adjustments); royalty_capitalization needs revenue + royalty_rate + discount_rate. Each comparable is {revenue, multiple}; comparable_transactions applies the comparable multiple to subject_revenue. Only method is required; all other parameters are method-dependent — supply those the selected method names and omit the rest (defaults apply where defined). Rates and premiums are decimals (0.10 = 10%). Pure arithmetic: no I/O and no external calls, rounded to 2 decimals; parameters belonging to other methods are accepted and ignored. An unknown method, or a missing method-required parameter, returns an error instead of a value.
