What is Book Value?

Book Value is an accounting term that refers to the value of an asset as it is recorded on a company's balance sheet. This value may be different from the market value of the asset, and it is calculated by subtracting the accumulated depreciation from the original cost of the asset. The book value is used to determine the value of a company's assets for accounting and tax purposes.
