Hi Dominic,
값 = value
가격 = price
비용 = cost
1. All three can be used for the price of something.
Ex. 이거 값이 얼마에요? = 이거 가격이 얼마에요? = 이거 비용이 얼마에요?
= how much is it?
2. 값 is also used when describing 'value(=가치)'.
Ex. 그건 정말 값진 경험이었다. = It was really valuable experience.
이건 값을 매길수 없다. = 이건 가치를 매길수 없다. = This is invaluable.
3. 비용 often refers the amount of money how much it costs for 'doing something'.
Ex. 여행 갈때 비용이 얼마 들었어? = how much did it cost for travelling there?
이사하는 비용은 얼마정도 들어? = how much does it cost for moving?
재료 비용은 얼마정도 들어? = how much do the materials cost?
Hope it helps.

값 and 가격 both means "price"
값 is native Korean word and 가격 is Sino-Korean word
비용 means "cost, expense, charge"
