focuses on determining a price that reflects the market conditions and not the costs that an individual entity may incur when selling or buying. Transaction costs are seen as incidental, while transportation costs are necessary to realize the asset’s market value
(basically it deoends in individual buyer ansd seller, some seelers may charge commission and some wont, this does not effect the intrinsic value of the asset) where as transportation cost will be incurred for all the units fo the asset in order for them to be transported into the market place wheree they can be sold and there for effects the intrinsic valuer of the asset.
