The following excerpt is from Crevier v. Thompson, 2015 BCSC 1552 (CanLII):
A future loss of income may be quantified by an earnings approach or a capital asset approach. The earnings approach will be more useful when the loss can be easily measured and the capital asset approach will be more useful when the loss is not easily measured. Peren v. Lalari, 2010 BCCA 140 at paras. 25-32.
