Does a half-price label tell us the value?
Consider how to distinguish the previous price from the value available now.
ASSETCASTING commentary
An interpretation of the fictional story, not a statement by the original video creator.When comparing used cameras, add repair costs and the burden of time without a working camera to the sticker price, and consider the remaining useful life. Whether the original price was reasonable is a separate question. This is not a formula for valuing shares; it is an exercise in comparing costs and usefulness without anchoring on a reference price. Applying it directly to assets with uncertain future value has limitations.
