I understand what you're asking. Research might help you put a "value" on it, but it won't help you put a "price" on it. After all, you would need to know the cost of goods sold to calculate your profit.
I don't know what the accounting rules would be for estimating old inventory, but you could always "sell" the goods to your company for cash or stock. Then the goods would have an established amount as their "basis."
Whether you -as seller - have a reportable profit is another question. It depends, in part, whether there was actually a profit since isolated sales for less than the adjusted basis aren't reportable as income (garage sales, for example).
If you can't put any value on the goods, I believe the IRS imputes a value of zero and treats it all as profit.
