	Use value - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Marx's critique of political economy, any labor-product has a value and a use value, and if it is traded as a commodity in markets, it additionally has an exchange value, most often expressed as a money-price.
		When treating of use value, we always assume to be dealing with definite quantities, such as dozens of watches, yards of linen, or tons of iron.
		The use values of commodities furnish the material for a special study, that of the commercial knowledge of commodities.[5] Use values become a reality only by use or consumption: they also constitute the substance of all wealth, whatever may be the social form of that wealth.

		The value per household from Washington residents was used with 93% of this value for residents in the rest of the Pacific Northwest and California.
		The incremental passive use values for the increase in anadromous fish due to the dam breaching is ranges from a high of $879 million for households in the Pacific Northwest and California to a low of $66 million with a middle range between $142 and $508 million.

	Computing Agricultural Land Use Values
		The land use values are recalculated annually; however, local governments normally choose to adjust the values only when there is a general reassessment in the locality (every five years in most cases).
		Then, a weighted average soil index factor is used to determine the use values of Class 3 land The values of the other seven land classes are then computed by multiplying the Class 3 value by appropriate indices reflecting the relative production potential of the respective land classes.
		In a nutshell, the land use value reflects what a farmer could theoretically afford to pay for land based on the capitalized net returns of commodities grown on the land over the last five years.

	Educational Psychology Interactive: Values
		Despite the debate over exactly what are the core values that ought to be taught in schools, the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (1996) suggests it is possible for communities to reach consensus on a set of values that would be appropriate for inclusion in the school curriculum.
		Valuing is therefore considered a process of the student identifying with and accepting the standards or norms of the important individuals and institutions within his society.
		Values are seen to have their source neither in society nor in the individual but in the interaction between the person and the society; the individual cannot be described outside of his or her context.

	Values

	Biodiversity
		Sarkar and Margules describe the use of a relative concept of biodiversity based on complementarity as "philosophically uncharted territory." At issue are the empirical and "conventional" elements involved in estimating complementarity values.
		As long as local values and opportunities, whatever their source, are given weight in these trade-offs, there is no need to try to define (or re-define) the "important" values of biodiversity as local not global.
		The perspective that biodiversity reflects option and intrinsic values, to be balanced with other values, appears to be compatible with the broader discipline of conservation biology: "the field is rooted in a philosophy of stewardship rather than one of utilitarianism or consumption.

	Glossary of Terms: Va
		Exchange-value (or, simply, value), is first of all the ratio, the proportion, in which a certain number of use-values of one kind can be exchanged for a certain number of use-values of another kind.
		We can understand what value is only when we consider it from the standpoint of the system of social relations of production in a particular historical type of society, moreover, or relations that manifest themselves in the mass phenomenon of exchange, a phenomenon which repeats itself thousands upon thousands of time.
		Marx called this capital “variable” because it is this proportion of capital which, if it is used wisely may produce a new, surplus value in the course of the labour process, over and above the “necessary labour time” which the worker needs to live and is paid in the form of wages.

	CNN.com - Dems look for opening in values debate - Jul 24, 2004
		But, as used, it can be incredibly vague, serving more as a buzzword to rally supporters and a shorthand means of connecting -- or trying to connect -- a candidate to voters.
		As Sen. John Kerry battles President Bush for the White House, he and other Democrats will try to debunk the notion advanced by some Republicans that "values" are the province of conservatives alone.
		That's a common refrain from Democrats, that Republicans use hot-button issues -- such as same-sex marriage -- to rally their base and increase voter turnout at the polls.

		I think the biggest issue we've seen is when you wind up with two different vendors trying to use each others' vendor-id's (say one company buys the other), and now the private ranges may conflict.
		While using the 'SMI Network Management Private Enterprise Code' may be equivalent to the hash as indicated in the ISAKMP rfc, it just strikes me as a bit more deterministic.

	Forestry Land Use Values Calculation
		The annual management fee and stumpage prices for pulpwood and sawtimber are projected at 2.3% inflation (use 3 year average), plus an additional 2% real price appreciation (use 5 year average) is applied to sawtimber prices to reflect historical trends.
		Sawtimber stumpage values are a weighted average of pine and hardwood based on the percentage of pine acreage and hardwood acreage in the county as determined by the 1992 Virginia Timber Survey.
		This is the same as determining the present value of a perpetual annuity where the value of the annual payment is divided by the discount rate.

	Organic Eprints - 4809: Organic products – a matter of public or private values? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		In this paper, we use a unique combination of questionnaire data and real market purchase data on organic food to examine whether stated values can predict purchase behaviour.
		We distinguish between private use values (health, taste and freshness attributes) and public non-use values (environmental and animal welfare attributes).
		Stated private values increase the probability of being an organic user to a significant extent.
