N/A |
The actual cash value is the value that our research approximates
the selling price of this vessel should be, at the time and
place of our inspection. The actual cash value is best determined
by a thorough market search to determine what vessels are available
on the market, followed by negotiations between the interested
parties. Consideration is given to vessel’s condition,
geographic location, published listings and guides, comparable
sales and listings, and market conditions. The new replacement
value is the cost of this or a similar, new vessel, comparably
equipped. The investment is the reported investment including
purchase price and significant upgrades. No values include maintenance
costs, storage or tax.
