Banks implement security measures, such as lien on car titles, to ensure loan repayment, highlighting the difference between possession and ownership. In consignment sales, distributors keep the title while earning a commission. Appraisal methods for imported goods include transaction value and alternatives like computed and deductive values, with the latter being crucial when buyer-seller relationships are unclear. Timely election of deductive value is essential under the 180-day rule.
