Quotients approach suggests measurement against available resource and implies absolute measurement against definable benchmarks.

Subjective approach suggests an approach more based on relative measures which are less capable of reliable measurement.

There is a strong argument ( currently ) about, for example, the ecomomic benefit of a forested area in Zambia and environmentalists have cited the figure of $1.3 billion as being the ANNUAL value of maintaining that forest and therefore the cost of cutting down the forest to plant, for example, soya plants.
