Book value refers to the purchase price less depreciation of an asset used in a business. Only someone with access to the business' books could answer fhat. But, I'm guessing you mean market value. A dealer could probably look up the approximate retail and wholesale values for you from their little book they use to quote trade-in offers. I've seen them pull it out when I've talked trade-in with them. Another option would be to check sites like tractorhouse for aaking prices on similar machines, but that won't tell you what they actually sold for.

You dealer may give that info to you. My dealer would if I asked. They have books that give retail and trade-in values. I don't always agree with them. My banker also subscribes to a service that give the values of tractor for sale in a region by dealers. I asked him last week for the value of a 2005 Kubota 4630 HST with FEL. His book said $17,500. Most of these books do not give specifics for hours, overall condition, accessories ect.
