What are 25k miles worth to you?

I have an upcoming trip for which my travel will be reimbursed. As I see it, I have two options:

-Buy a ticket, roughly around $480 at present and be reimbursed.

-Use 25k miles, bill the company the cost of the ticket and recoup $480 in place of the 25k miles.

Before I'm asked, yes!, I can find availability at 25k miles at present for multiple flights on the dates of travel, so that won't be an issue. It is a short mileage trip--at most 1200 MQMs. The 25k miles represent about 5% of my total balance, so not a big dent.

To use the miles or not. What do you think?
