Value, Value Received
VALUE - the face, par, or market value, whichever is the greatest, and the aggregate value of all goods, wares, and merchandise, securities, and money referred to in a single indictment shall constitute the value thereof. 18 USC

common law. This term has two different meanings. It sometimes expresses the utility of an object, and some times the power of purchasing other good with it. The first may be called value in use, the latter value in exchange.

Value differs from price. The latter is applied to live cattle and ani-mals; 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.

VALUE RECEIVED - This phrase is usually employed in a bill of exchange or promissory note, to denote that a consideration has been given for it.

The expression value received, when put in a bill of exchange, will bear two interpretations: the drawer of the bill may be presumed to acknowledge the fact that he has received value of the payee or when the bill has been made payable to the order of the drawer, it implies that value has been received by the acceptor. In a promissory note, the expression imports value received from the payee.

Web Dictionary of Cybernetics and Systems
Value
Value can be either objective or subjective. In the latter case, it means subjective worth or importance. For example, "the value of future benefits to thedecision maker ," "the value of clean air to the society." For the purposes of analysis, the subjective values must be measured on some scale. These measures of value should be based on preferences expressed by the person or group of interest.
In [VALUE ANALYSIS,] one considers that the value v is related to the physical or other objective measure y of a consequence by a subjectively defined [VALUE FUNCTION,] so that v = f(y). A value function usually departs from proportionality, i.e.,it usually is a nonlinear dependence. A typical example is the subjective value of money to an individual: the first l,000 schillings in his savings account are probably of more value to him that the l,000 schillings that would increase the state oh his account from 100,000 to 101,000 schillings. The value of a multiattribute consequence with VALUE-RELEVANT ATTRIBUTES y1,y2,..yn can be expressed by a MULTIATTRIBUTE VALUE function, v(yl,y2,..yn). A multiattribute value function must satisfy the following condition: v(yl,y2,..yn) is greater than or equal to v(y'l,y'2,..y'n)
if and only if the multiattribute consequence (yl,y2,..yn) is preferred or indifferent to (y'1,y'2..,y'n).
Several theories exist according to which a multiattribute value function V(.) can, in appropriate cases, be expressed as an aggregate of single-attribute functions Vi(.). For example, the additive [CONJOINT measurement theory ] assumes that n v(yl,y2,..,yn) = SUM Vi(yi). i=l See also: utility, decision theory (IIASA)
