1 Book-Fold
BOOK-FOLD (American, official)A form and a method of putting up and packing in convenient form, used for the shipping and storing of fabrics of a wide width. This is in contrast to the form and method of rolling fabrics of broad width, either on to paper tubes or on to heavy cardboards like a bolt. The goods may or may not be doubled in the centre to one-half their width, and are thus folded in successive layers of an equal length, usually of 11/4 yard to each layer, until the entire piece is " done (put) up " in folds with the respective mill-ends being lapped inside the first or last fold. Hence the piece is placed on to a white tissue paper which is wider in width than the folds. The tissue is in turn protected by a medium stiff " buff and white " wrapper that tallies in width with the width of the folds. The piece is next put (packed) into book-fold by tucking both ends of the folds in with the respective tissue paper and the buff and white wrapper, while in the width overlapping stubs of tissue paper are tucked under the buff and white wrapper. ———————— A finisher's term to indicate that the cloth has to be in such a way as to open like a book from the centre, with the folds resembling the leaves of a book. -

8 book value
Finvalue of a company’s stock according to the company itself, which may differ considerably from the market value.EXAMPLEIt is calculated by subtracting a company’s liabilities and the value of its debt and preferred stock from its total assets. All of these figures appear on a company’s balance sheet. For example:Book value per share is calculated by dividing the book value by the number of shares in issue. If our example is expressed in millions of dollars and the company has 35 million shares outstanding, book value per share would be $650 million divided by 35 million:650/35 = $18.57 book value per shareBook value represents a company’s net worth to its shareholders. When compared with its market value, book value helps reveal how a company is regarded by the investment community. A market value that is notably higher than book value indicates that investors have a high regard for the company. A market value that is, for example, a multiple of book value suggests that investors’ regard may be unreasonably high. -
