ofcourse.
ideas are never cheap as they are unique and dependent on the brains of the inventive, the creative..
execution is nothing but production compared to "the idea".
everyone who can learn the rules of a profession and who can handle the tools can handle the execution.
idea people, and i mean good idea people, are in a minority so yes, the value of ideas is almost infinitly higher then execution, especially since it value can not be estimated within the confinements of hourly wages.
a person with an idea that is valuable could go anywhere with it and get the best price for it, someone with simply skills is not as unique, unless your skills rise far above your colleagues..

Depends on the idea.
I've had a few doozy ideas over the years, including one for the dynamic modification of wing lift/control surfaces in planes or other fast vehicles - I could probably get a patent for it...
...IF I spent a couple of 100k developing it and legal- beagling into a form attractive to industry.
That prospect kind of nullifies any value I might have ever placed it on my idea.
