Tick value = tick size × contract unit. For ES: 0.25 × $50 = $12.50. Treasury contracts quote in 1/32, 1/64 and 1/128 of a point rather than decimals — ZB ticks at 1/32 ($31.25), ZN at 1/64 ($15.625), ZT at 1/256 ($7.8125). Currency symbols mean the contract settles in that currency, so tick value is not in US dollars.
How to read the table
Contract unit is what one contract represents — barrels, ounces, bushels, or a multiple of an index. Tick size is the smallest price move the exchange allows. Tick value is what that one move is worth in cash.

What this page does not tell you
It does not include margin requirements, because those are set by the exchange and revised without notice, and they differ between brokers. Check the exchange or your broker for the live number. See the margin calculator to work out what a position ties up.
It does not tell you which contract to trade. Nothing here is investment advice.
