Liquidation Value: All valuations consider present and future values. Value is generated over time. It begins in the present and extends into the future. This ongoing value is referred to as continuing value. Countries, corporations, households, and individuals set current values based on the belief that the present state will persist. What happens if it does not continue? It loses its future value. This state is known as the liquidation value. For example, this occurs if you quit your business. Almost all investments involve buying and selling assets based on their future worth. If you buy at a price lower than the liquidation value, you make a significant profit. If you buy at the liquidation value, you pay a fair price. If you pay more, you risk overpaying or buying a bubble. Value depends on time. Continuing a process is key to valuation. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
In an exchange economy , where goods or services are well-made and exchanged for one another’s needs in the market, rather than through barter , ‘ price ’ holds significant importance. The key to business success lies in understanding the prime cost and establishing a ‘price’ based on that cost. If sales surge when a product that typically does not sell well is offered at a very low price, there must be a reason for the low price, as well as an explanation for why it does not sell at a higher price. The price results from the interaction of producers, consumers, and all other market variables . To identify the causes of problems in your business, you must first examine the price adequacy of the product or service you are selling. Price is not merely a number. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
