Sign value

Sign value is used to help figure out the worth of a certain object. It means looking at the positive and negative factors that affect how much the object costs or is worth. For example, if you want to buy a car, you could look at the age of the car, how many miles it has been driven, how well it has been taken care of, and how many options it has. All these factors will give you a sign value or an estimation of how much the car is worth.
