GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase: Valores de origen
English translation: Acquisition costs

Aug 30, 2004 - (KudoZ) English to Spanish translation of target value: valor objetivo [Law: Contract(s) ... fija el valor objetivo de Iberia en 1,85 euros Merrill .

Given your context, the one that makes most sense to me is the last link "valor objetivo" (V.O.) or (v.o) (however written) > target value.

Let us see what others think!

Addendum:

To address Phil's previous comments:
V/O > original value - ProZ.com

Aug 30, 2013 - (KudoZ) Spanish to English translation of V/O: original value [Accounting ... English translation: original value. Entered by ... VO = Valor Original

Therefore, another option is that "v.o." [valor original] = original value.

Peer comments on this reference comment (and responses from the reference poster)
neutral  philgoddard: Your first reference looks relevant, but I don't think the others would make sense on a payslip. "Valor de origén/original" is one possibility, but it can't mean "acquisition costs".

  -> Phil, I merely copied the link re "valor de origen" (I did not address the validity of the translation in that context); to me, the 2nd ProZ link makes more sense if you looked at the column headings and the values contained therein, but that's your opin.
agree  Charles Davis: I sometimes wonder why we have peer comments on references.
2 hrs
  -> I believe the rationale was that peers could also agree or disagree as the case may be re refs. (irrelevant ones). Truth be told it does serve little purpose, but for those posting it is a "feel good" situation and being able to help somehow! LOL!
agree  Jennifer Levey: @Charles: Well, one good reason is that this is where we have an opportunity to support and emphasise the value of properly circumstanciated/circumscribed research - such as that done regularly on Kudoz by Taña - and so often lacking on the Asker's part.

  -> Thanks Robin. Far more eloquently explained!
