Value is entirely subjective.

What may seem fair and equitable to you may not be so to someone else.

You may pay many millions for a painting or other work of art. Other people would not be willing to do so. Given the wherewithal.

A computer or TV may be worth 1000 (of whatever your currency is). To you.

Other people have different priorities.

Market value is what you can reasonably sell something for.

If coexecutor-beneficiary of taxable Estate wants to purchase the family home at appraised value which is significantly lower than market how do you determine fair distribution without wasting to tax?

The appraised value is supposed to arrive at fair market value. Remember that property owned by a decedent gets a new basis, which is equal to the value as of the date of death. When a buyer purchases the property for its value, there is no capital gain or loss. If the buyer pays less than fair market value, then you can simply allocate the difference between FMV and the purchase price to the buyer's share of the estate.

What is difference between market to book value and price to book value?

That is a good question that a lot of people get confused about. In accounting, assets are recorded on your books at cost (what you paid for them). That value (less any accumulated depreciation or impairment expense) is your book value. That is, your book value is based on what you paid for the asset as opposed to it's market value. A market value (fair value) is what that asset would sell for on the open market if you attempted to sell it. This is a very subjective judgment, which is the main reason accountants don't usually report assets at market value in the United States (there are some exceptions in relation to securities). A price is what an asset actually is being sold for. Price and market value are usually the same thing, but sometimes factors make price higher or lower than market value. This is usually as a result of government regulations, or company pricing policies.
