Research Strategy:
First, we consulted market reports such as MarketWatch, IBISWorld, PRNewswire, and others, hoping to find precompiled data on market size of the auto auction market in the United States. However, all the reports for the market size and the annual growth rate were behind a paywall. Next, we consulted industry associations such as the National Auto Auction Association (NAAA). We came across the NAAA's 2014-2018 market report for the auto auction industry in the United States, which contained data for the market size, auto auctions sold per year, and the projected average cost per unit during 2014-2018. However, there was no report available for 2019 and the CAGR.
Therefore, we triangulated the data based on the growth rate of the auto auction industry market from 2014 ($82 billion in revenue) to 2018 ($107.6 billion in revenue). Using an online CAGR calculator, we discovered that the growth rate is approximately 5.58%.
Calculation:
107,600,000,000 * 0.058 = 6,240,800,000
2019 market size: 107,600,000,000 + 6,240,800,000 = $113,840,800,000 or $113.8 billion
