The '''Objectivist theory of Value''', as proposed by [[Ayn Rand]], explains the [[worth]] of goods and services as a relationship between [[intrinsic]], [[observable]] attributes in nature, [[human]] [[knowledge]] of such attributes, and how such attributes can satisfy the [[Subjectivity|subjective]] needs of humans. The Objectivist theory of value holds the following:
*'''Reality exists independently of perception:'''
:::''see [[Objectivism (
::Reality exists independent of human perception. If humans did not exist, reality would still exist. Reality has some properties that cannot be changed; but humans can observe, learn and know what these properties are. These properties are said to be [[intrinsic]] to reality.
*'''Humans have unique needs :'''
