Monetary valuation of changes in environmental quality has a great importance in evaluation of investment projects.The benefit or avoided damage cost from a project to change environmental quality is captured by individuals' wilingness to pay(WTP). Valuation methods based on WTP can mainly be categoriesed in two groups as 'production approach' and 'utility approach'. In this study, concept of wilingness to pay and valuation methods based on 'production approach' are investigated with an application to a mine project in Turkey.

AbstractThis literature review deals with the understanding of ecosystem services related to the question of their applicability and appropriate methods for their valuation. We distinguish between ecological valuation methods that aim to assess the significance of landscape characteristics, conventional economic, i.e. monetary valuation and non-monetizing valuation or assessment. Ecological evaluation methods derive values by following a cost of production approach which neglects consumer preferences. Economic valuation methods focus on the exchange value of ecosystem services, i.e. they are based on consumer preferences, but do not adequately take into account the complex internal structure of ecosystems. We conclude that – from the view of implementation of ecosystem services for policy support and consulting – successful valuation approaches should particularly consider the relationships between economic, ecological and social aspects of ecosystem services’ provision.

ABSTRACTIn the early modern age Japan was a kingdom rich in metal resources. A lot of gold, silver and copper were produced and exported to foreign countries, nevertheless Japan maintained a national isolation policy. The Iwami silver mine located in Shimane prefecture was the representative silver mine that prospered most. It produced about 10 % of the world's silver output. It is now mostly abandoned and reduced to ruins. Only a famous picture scroll remains to indicate its real activities. Through archaeological excavation started in 1983, it is becoming clear that extensive remains of mining and smelting are preserved. From 1996 scientific investigation of the excavated remains has been conducted. During excavation, and confirmed by scientific research, we recognized that the artifacts deposited during both the mining of the silver ore and the smelting process could be classified into two artifactual types; objects and fragments produced in the dressing process that were not influenced by a heating process and objects influenced by a heating process and produced by smelting and refining. The low grade ore, waste and tailings (remains after gravity concentration) that were scrapped in the dressing process are included in the former type, and the furnace fragments for smelting and refining, tuyeres (blast pipes) and slag and other smelter remains are of the latter type. The waste and tailings scrapped in the dressing process have not previously been studied. This study aimed at systematically investigating the dressing technology and estimating the ore grade through the evaluation of the range of variation in the waste and tailings left as scrap in the dressing process. The analytical results revealed the actual activities practiced at the Iwami silver mine in the dressing process.

Valuation of the company is important in the management of the company's activities. It may be implemented for solving large complex tasks: checking the validity of the current stock quotes of joint-stock companies; objective evaluation of results of activity of enterprises of different organizational-legal forms, as market and book value of assets of companies are usually essentially differ; reorganization, bankruptcy, privatization of enterprises; the issue of new shares; the rationale for the options of reorganization of the enterprise, etc. The evaluation of enterprises is carried out using certain methods, which are based on cost, comparative and profitable approaches to evaluation. The article deals with the classification, characteristics and distinctive features of the main methods of evaluating enterprises. In most cases, these methods are used only to assess the company's property complex, which does not allow us to fully assess its competitive advantages. It is concluded that the evaluation of companies should use information about the size and cost of its production potential. The proposed approach will make it possible to determine the value of enterprises more accurately and reasonably and will contribute to the development of valuation methods and separate theoretical provisions in the field of determining the production potential of an enterprise. It can be used in solving a number of practical problems related to the assessment of: business lines, or product lines of the company; the effectiveness of investment projects for the creation and development of enterprises; determining the forecast value of the created companies, etc.
