Generally speaking, most businesses will sell for between 6 and 10 times their annual EBITDA depending on factors such as size, industry, competitive landscape, and geographic location.
Small Inventory write-offs are typically expensed as COGS and therefore will negatively impact the EBITDA.
To use EBITDA for valuing a company, look at similar businesses in the same industry that were recently sold and compare their selling prices to their EBITDA numbers. This gives you a ratio of selling prices to EBITDA, which can help estimate a company's value.
EBITDA = Operating Income + Depreciation + Amortization Being a non-GAAP computation, one can select which expense they want to add to the net income. For instance, if an investor wants to check how a company's financial standing can be affected by debt, they can exclude only depreciation and taxes.
EBITDA isn't normally included on a company's income statement because it isn't a metric recognized by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as a measure of financial performance.

EBITDA is a company's net income but excludes the impact of interest income or expense related to debt instruments, depreciation and amortization, and stated and federal income taxes.
The recommended approach to calculating adjusted EBITDA starts with operating income and then adds back interest, depreciation, and amortization. Additional add-backs to operating expenses should then be accounted for. The adjusted EBITDA for each year should then be totaled, and a multi-year average calculated.
EBITDA does not appear on income statements but can be calculated using income statements. Gross profit does appear on a company's income statement. EBITDA is useful in analysing and comparing profitability. Gross profit is useful in understanding how companies generate profit from the direct costs of producing goods.
