Value in United States

Value Definition

The utility of an object. The price demanded or accepted as equivalent to the utility of anything. 161 111. 251; 154 111. 662. The worth of an object in purchasing other goods. The value of a thing is what it will produce. The first may be called “value in use;” the latter, “value in exchange.” It is a relative term, depending upon different circumstances, 235 111. 435, and has no fixed criteria. 21 Minn. 322. “Value” differs from “price.” The latter is applied to live cattle and animals. In a declaration, therefore, for taking cattle, they ought to be said to be of such a price; and in a declaration for taking dead chattels, or those which never had life, it ought to lay them to be of such a value. 2 Lilly, Abr. 629.

Concept of Value in Foreign Trade

A definition of Value in relation with foreign trade is provided here: In general, the value to be reported in the EEI shall be the value of the goods at the U.S. port of export in U.S. dollars. The value shall be the selling price (or the cost, if the goods are not sold), plus inland or domestic freight, insurance, and other charges to the U.S. seaport, airport, or land border port of export. Cost of goods is the sum of expenses incurred in the USPPI's acquisition or production of the goods. Report the value to the nearest dollar, omit cents. Fractions of a dollar less than 50 cents should be ignored, and fractions of 50 cents or more should be rounded up to the next dollar.
