The Theory of Value

The Theory of Value explores why things are worth what they are. It examines how the value of goods and services is determined by various factors, such as their utility (how useful they are), scarcity (how rare they are), and the preferences of consumers. Different economic theories, like classical economics and subjective value theory, offer insights into how prices are set in the market. Essentially, it seeks to understand the relationship between supply, demand, and how individuals perceive value, helping to explain economic transactions and the marketplace.
