What Compensation IsWhat Compensation Is
Compensation recognizes there is a Compensation recognizes there is a disconnect (externality) between disconnect (externality) between producers’ incentive not to report producers’ incentive not to report disease and industry and governmental disease and industry and governmental desire for quick reporting to limit the desire for quick reporting to limit the spread of diseasespread of diseaseThus, the economic reason for paying Thus, the economic reason for paying indemnity for diseased animals is to indemnity for diseased animals is to encourage rapid reporting to animal encourage rapid reporting to animal health officialshealth officials

Appraisal Valuation MethodsAppraisal Valuation Methods
Two Basic Appraisal MethodsTwo Basic Appraisal Methods Revenue MinusRevenue Minus
Start with value of final product and work backwards Start with value of final product and work backwards subtracting costs and share of retained earnings for each subtracting costs and share of retained earnings for each downstream production/processing phasedownstream production/processing phase
Cost PlusCost PlusAppraisal value is equal to cost of production plus Appraisal value is equal to cost of production plus
accumulated shares of retained earning for each upstream accumulated shares of retained earning for each upstream production/processing phaseproduction/processing phase
Both methods produce the same exact value, thus Both methods produce the same exact value, thus provide internal check that spreadsheet equations are provide internal check that spreadsheet equations are correctcorrect
