	Good (economics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some things are goods at low consumption levels and bads at higher consumption levels: for instance one slice of pizza is anjoyed in a meal but the 25th slice would be unpleasant.
		Labour represents a good to an employer, and a 'bad' to the worker, because the worker would prefer to spend the time at leisure (labor is a pure substitute for leisure time).
		A public good is a good which, when consumed by one person, is also consumed by one or more others, producing an externality.

	Encyclopedia: Capital good
		Capital goods, in contrast to consumer goods, are goods used in the production of (physical) capital.
		Many goods could be categorized as capital goods, or as consumer goods according to usage; for example cars and personal computers.
		Capital goods are intermediary stations on the way leading from the very beginning of production to its final goal, the turning out of consumers' goods.

	What is the part played by capital goods in the process of economic growth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-02)
		The view of capital structure evolution presented here is based on an interpretation of capital as knowledge derived primarily from Menger, and on Lachmann’s insistence that capital functions in a structure.
		Analogously, the capital structure as a whole can be seen to evolve as entrepreneurs extend it with new capital goods or enhance it by replacing existing capital (combinations) with better (better adapted) ones.
		It entails what we might call a "complexifying" of the capital structure, an increasing intricacy of the pattern(s) of complementarity among increasingly specialized capital goods, born in the on-going growth and division of knowledge.

	social capital: civic community, organization and education
		In that sense social capital is closely related to what some have called “civic virtue.” The difference is that “social capital” calls attention to the fact that civic virtue is most powerful when embedded in a sense network of reciprocal social relations.
		Those concerned with social capital have looked to the density of social networks that people are involved in; the extent to which they are engaged with others in informal, social activities; and their membership of groups and associations (see la via associative).
		Useful critical exploration of the notion of social capital and its theoretical origins and the extent to which 'it avoids a proper confrontation with political economy and, as a result of its origins and evolution, has become chaotic'.

	Rainy Day Fund -- Building Working Capital in Good Times
		Capital replacement is essential to ensure the long-run viability of the operation.
		A business that depreciates assets without making capital replacements is said to be "living off depreciation." It should be noted that it is not necessary to own the assets, but rather to have control of the assets, as evidenced by the trend towards more leased machinery and equipment.
		Without working capital reserves, the options are asset liquidation, interim financing, or refinancing short-term debt with long-term notes, all of which may hinder the future success of the operation.

		First, a country is relatively capital abundant if the ratio of its capital stock, K, to its labor supply, L, exceeds the capital to labor ratio in another country.
		If a country, say the US, is relatively capital abundant compared to another country, say Canada, then the US will have a lower opportunity cost in autarky for the relatively capital intensive good (say X) and Canada will have a lower opportunity cost in autarky for the relatively labor intensive good (say Y).
		That is, a country with much capital compared to labor will have a comparative advantage in capital intensive goods, and a country with much labor compared to capital will have a comparative advantage in labor intensive goods.

	Synopsis 103 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-02)
		The theory of capital deals with the fact that capital goods – such as power plants, computer software, buildings – supply services not only in one but over many time periods.
		This is, in a nutshell, the cause of the conventional wisdom of capital theory: the longer the time horizon, the more advantageous it is to bring a new technique employing a new capital good into use.
		While capital theoretic work is usually presented in mathematical form, as this allows the complex intertemporal relationships to be rigorously explored, in this paper we shall take a verbal approach except for some simple algebraic representation, as the main capital theoretic elements are reasonably straightforward.

	Dynamic investment behavior taking into account ageing of the capital good
		It turns out that investing in capital goods of di¤erent age is done such that the net present value of marginal investment equals zero.
		Comparing the returns of investment in capital goods of different age, the higher productivity of younger capital goods has to be weighed against the lower costs of depreciation, discounting and acquisition of older capital goods.
		In the steady state it holds that, in the most reasonable scenario, the firm should invest at the highest rate in new capital goods, and dis-investment can only be optimal when costs of acquisition are large and machines are old.

		Hence, it costs more to make capital intensive goods in a labor abundant country than a capital abundant country.
		This means the opportunity cost of a labor intensive good is lower in a labor abundant country, and thus it has a comparative advantage in the labor intensive good.
