Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Residual value is one of the constituents of a leasing calculus or operation. It describes the future value of a good in terms of percentage of depreciation of its initial value. Example A Honda is sold at a list price of 20,000 today. After a usage of 36 months and 50,000 miles its value is contractually defined as 50 or 10,000. The credited amount, on which the interest is applied, thus is 20,000 present value minus 10,000 future value. Residual values are contractually dealt with either in terms of closed contract s or open contract s. In accounting, residual value is another name for salvage value , the remaining value of an asset after it has been fully depreciated. The residual value derives its calculation from a base price, calculated after depreciation . Residual values are calculated using a number of factors, generally a vehicles market value for the term and mileage required is the start point for the calculation, followed by seasonality, monthly adjustment, lifecycle and disposal performance. The leasing company setting the residual values RVs will use their own historical information to insert the adjustment factors within the calculation to set the end value being the residual value. In accounting, the residual value could be defined as an estimated amount that an entity can obtain when disposing of an asset after its useful life has ended. When doing this the estimated costs of disposing of the asset should be deducted. The formula to calculate the residual value can be seen with the next example A company owns a machine which was bought for 20,000 . This machine has a useful life of five years which has just ended. The company knows that if it sells the machine now it will be able to recover 10 of the price of acquisition.

unsourced date November 2007 In the field of economics , the commodity value of a economic good good is its free market Intrinsic value ethics intrinsic value under optimal use conditions. In a free market, the commodity value of a good will be reflected by its price. For example, if an acre of land can yield a net of 100 dollars loss by lying fallow , 50 dollars gain by being planted with corn, and 100 dollars gain by being planted with wheat, then that acre s commodity value is 100 dollars the farmer is assumed to put his land to best use. Currency Commodity value is of particular significance in the study of currency. For example, the commodity value of a coin is the value of the metal of which it is made. Gold and silver coins have a high commodity value, whereas fiat money fiat coins such as modern day Quarter United States coin quarters have a low commodity value. This is of particular historical relevance when analyzed in light of Gresham s Law . Debt Asset backed debt has a commodity value equal to the price of the Collateral finance collateral a loan backed by a house has a commodity value equal to the free market price of the house. Non collateralized debt, on the other hand, does not have a commodity value it is valuable only insofar as it is repaid. Investment Commodity value is an important consideration in hedging against inflation . Whereas fiat currencies can devalue, often hyperinflation catastrophically , currencies with considerable commodity value are known to better maintain their value a government can print as many fiat bills as it wants with relative ease, the same is not true of mining precious metals . This leads some investors to purchase goods and debts with high commodity value, which are inherently safer than those with low, or no commodity value, minimizing risk by sacrificing potential return.

unreferenced date March 2010 Blended value refers to a business model that combines a revenue generating business with a component which generates social value. The term is usually attributed to Jed Emerson , and sometimes used interchangeably with triple bottom line and social enterprise . An example is a fair trade product such as coffee, available for purchase in an ordinary shop, but which also delivers social value through the guaranteed higher prices paid to the farmers and long term investments in their communities. Blended value can be distinguished from Corporate social responsibility Corporate Social Responsibility CSR and corporate philanthropy because the social impact is at the core of the Customer value proposition value proposition , rather than as a side effort. In many instances, blended value businesses can be considered a type of product bundling . Considering the previous example in this way, a consumer can purchase coffee, and also may make a charitable donation to a community of coffee growers. Bundling the two items together as a fair trade product should deliver some benefit to the consumer compared to purchasing them separately, such as convenience or lower total cost. Blended valuebusiness models Blended value propositions require special consideration as businesses because the social value may not be an intrinsic and measurable product attribute such as size or quality. For example, consider what are referred to as Blood diamonds , diamonds whose mining contributes to a war. A high quality diamond may be tested and measured to determine its value, however a diamond that is mined without the use of child laborers or the financing of an armed conflict must be certified or inspected in some other way.

The value shop was first conceptualized by James D. Thompson Thompson in 1967. A value shop is an organization designed to solve customer or client problems rather than creating value by producing output from an input of raw materials. Compared to Michael Porter s concept of the value chain , there is no sequential fixed set of activities or resources utilized to create value. Each problem is treated uniquely and activities and resources are allocated specifically to cater to the problem in question. According to the research of Charles B. Stabell and ystein D. Fjeldstad, the value configuration analysis 1998 , five main generic activities are carried out in the organization Problem Finding and acquisition Problem Solving Choice of problem solution Execution of solution Control and evaluation Value is created in the shop by several mechanisms allowing the organization to solve problems better or faster than the client.

The Embedded Value EV of a life insurance company is the present value of future profits plus adjusted net asset value . It is a construct from the field of actuarial science which allows insurance companies to be valued. Background Life insurance policies are long term contracts, where the policyholder pays a premium to be covered against a possible future event such as the death of the policyholder . Future income for the insurer consists of premiums paid by policyholders whilst future outgo comprises claims paid to policyholders as well as various expenses. The difference, combined with income on and release of statutory reserves, represents future profit. Net asset value is the difference between the total assets and liabilities of an insurance company. For companies, the net asset value is usually calculated at book value . This needs to be adjusted to market value s for EV purposes. Furthermore, this value may be discounted to reflect the lock in of some of the assets by their nature. An example of such a lock in would be assets held within the with profits fund Value of the insurer EV measures the value of the insurer by adding present value today s value of the existing business i.e. future profits to the market value of net assets i.e. accumulated past profits .
