Description
Express a supplied trade value per stated quantity unit.
International economic quantities depend on currency quotation, valuation base, denominator, accounting boundary and reporting period. A unit value differs from a comparable price, while import penetration can exceed one under a supplied absorption definition. Tax, ownership and counterfactual terms remain explicit scenarios rather than verified economic facts.
Express a supplied trade value per stated quantity unit.
When to use this tool
Use Trade Unit Value Quantity Basis Label when you already have tradeValue, quantity, quantityUnit and need to express a supplied trade value per stated quantity unit.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter tradeValue, quantity, quantityUnit. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read unitValue, label. Use the output convention below.
Require quantity>0 and quantityUnit nonempty; return tradeValue/quantity and a value per unit label.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| tradeValue | Trade Value | Required. Finite number. |
| quantity | Quantity | Required. Finite number; strictly above 0. |
| quantityUnit | Quantity Unit | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| unitValue | Unit Value | Required. Finite number. |
| label | Label | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

"input": {
"tradeValue": 1000,
"quantity": 20,
"quantityUnit": "kg"
},
"output": {
"unitValue": 50,
"label": "value per kg"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- Trade value may be signed; unit value is not necessarily a comparable price or a verified transaction value.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the complete underlying accounts, price indices, trade definitions and applicable source rules for an actual comparison. Reconcile valuation, timing, currency and coverage before interpreting a residual or weighted contribution as a broader economic result.
