Abstract
Assessment information needed to calculate a used vehicle assessment value of a hydraulic excavator 10 is input to a portable telephone 20 and is then transmitted from the portable telephone 20. The transmitted assessment information is received at a manufacturer'"'"'s base station 40 at a remote location. The used vehicle assessment value of the hydraulic excavator 10 is calculated based upon the received assessment information, and history information and operation information on the hydraulic excavator 10 read out from an operation information database 43 and a history database 42 in correspondence to an ID number assigned to the hydraulic excavator which is included in the assessment information.
