If by "old" you mean "retrieved from a previous Robot", then [R15] says you include the component's undepreciated cost (i.e., the price at which a Vendor offered the component in the year it was first used) in the cost accounting.

If the component was not used on a previous Robot, then I don't know. But the price you actually paid, or else the price at which a new one is available from a Vendor (per [R23]) seems like the right way to account for its cost.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
