Price Acceptability Tester Help using PAT The Price Acceptability Tester (PAT) is designed to help you judge the reasonability of a price target. The tester will give you an unbiased second opinion on a price target for a stock. PAT is based on historical returns and should not be viewed as a recommendation or endorsement for any equity transaction or equity price level. PAT, as with all analytical tools, should be used in conjunction with company fundamental analysis, practical investment experience, and a healthy dose of common sense.
