Topic: Capital surplus


In the News (Sun 15 Nov 09)

  
  Social Capital | libcom.org
Capital's process of socialization is the specific materials base upon which is founded, on a certain level, the process of development of capitalism.
It is not the intensity of capital that measures the exploitation of workers.
But in terms of social capital, capital comes to represent all capitalists, and the individual capitalist is reduced to an individual personification of this totality: the direct functionary, no longer of his own capital, but of the capitalist class.

 Capital account - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Capital accounts record the net accumulation, as the result of transactions, of non-financial assets; and the financing, by way of saving and capital transfers, of the accumulation.
The capital account is one of two primary components of the balance of payments, the other being the current account.
The capital account is the net result of public and private international investment flowing in and out of a country.

 Surplus value and planning: notes on the reading of 'Capital' - Raniero Panzieri
Capital's incessant forward movement is by no means confined within the limits of competition, while 'capitalistic communism' [39] is something more than an automatic movement of total social capital that results from the blind operation of the system.
Capitalism's development in its advanced form shows the system's capacity for self-limitation, for the reproduction of the conditions of its survival by conscious interventions, and for planning, and the limits of this development (for example by planning the level of unemployment).
Thus changes in capitalism are detected at the empirical level, but when an attempt is made to reach the 'scientific' level, there is a return to explanatory models that abstract from historical development (and therefore paradoxically repeat the schematicism of the eternally valid 'rational' economy).

 1877: Anti-Duhring - Capital and Surplus Value
According to him, capital is born of money, it forms a historical phase opening with the sixteenth century, that is, with the first beginnings of a world market, which presumably appeared at that period.
Capital, therefore, is a historical phase not only according to Marx but also according to Herr Dühring, and we are consequently forced to the conclusion that we are among Jesuits here.
In classical political economy, capital and profit, or capital and interest, are just as inseparable, stand in the same reciprocal relations to each other, as cause and effect, father and son, yesterday and today.

 Capital Surplus Drives Down Yields on Structured $$
On the other hand, the lower borrowing costs may not be as evident in financing from some private funds, whose higher cost of capital or return expectations have caused them to demand higher returns from riskier investments, he suggested.
And PCS Development's Shaw added that the need for structured capital to bridge the financing gap is increasing as cap rates have dipped to extremely low levels.

 Scramble for Africa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In addition, surplus capital was often more profitably invested overseas, where cheap labor, limited competition, and abundant raw materials made a greater premium possible.
However, according to the classic thesis of John A. Hobson, exposed in Imperialism (1902), which would influence authors such as Lenin's Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism (1916), Trotsky or Hannah Arendt's The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951), this shrinking of continental markets was a main factor of the global New Imperialism period.
Capitalism, an economic system in which capital, or wealth, is put to work to produce more capital, revolutionized traditional economies, inducing social changes and political consequences that revolutionized African and Asian societies.

 Peru BALANCE OF PAYMENTS
The surplus rose in 1979 and 1980 because of an extremely favorable trade performance and an additional infusion of public-sector capital.
During the 1980s, however, Peru's export position was negatively affected by the worldwide recession and by lower world mineral prices, resulting in a negative trade balance, which, together with rising interest payments on the foreign debt to the IMF, led once again to an overall payments deficit.
During 1990, Peru experienced a trade and capital surplus, but a deficit in the current account.

 Glossary of Terms: Su
In bourgeois society, surplus value is acquired by the capitalist in the form of profit: the capitalist owns the means of production as Private Property, so the workers have no choice but to sell their labour-power to the capitalists in order to live.
The capitalists may increase the amount of surplus value extracted from the working class by two means: (1) by absolute surplus value – extending the working day as long as possible, and (2) by relative surplus value – by cutting wages.
Having been accumulated as capital, surplus value must then be distributed to landlords, bankers and other parasites, and expended via taxes on the various expenses of maintaining the social fabic.

 Asia Times: Japan firms buybacks may hurt bond ratings: Moody's
In response to 1998 revisions in the commercial code permitting stock buy-backs, approximately 870 companies amended their articles of incorporation to permit repurchasing of shares, including 40 corporations rated by Moody's, who fall into a ratings range between Aa1 and B1.
The 40 companies rated by Moody's are using both profits and capital surplus to repurchase equity, but those using capital surplus to fund their repurchase programs have significantly lower credit ratings than those using profits.
"These issuers have a financial profile that includes a relatively highly leveraged capital structure and weak debt coverage measurements, and even though repurchase programs use a small portion of capital, the amount will impair issuers' equity position and result in further deterioration of their already relatively high leverage, and ratings could fall" Moody's warned.

 Notes on the Budget Surplus and Capital Gains
The "surplus," of course, is only a surplus if one counts the build-up in the Social Security trust funds that will be needed to pay future benefits.
Because of the 1997 capital gains tax cut, reported gains in calendar 1997 will have had to continue their torrid growth pace of the previous two years just to break even with the $64 billion in capital gains taxes paid on calendar 1996 returns.
The surge in capital gains realizations began long before the 1997 capital gains tax cut took effect, and appears to have mainly reflected the strong growth in the stock market.

The framework includes a target capital surplus of 30 percent of Freddie Mac’s minimum capital requirement, subject to certain conditions and variations; weekly monitoring; and prior approval of certain capital transactions, to ensure that appropriate levels of capital are maintained.
A failure by Freddie Mac to meet the target capital surplus would result in discussions between Freddie Mac and OFHEO concerning the reason for such failure.
In addition, Freddie Mac is required to obtain prior written approval from the Director of OFHEO before engaging in certain capital transactions, including the repurchase of any shares of common stock or the redemption of any preferred stock.
