capital intensity

This is also referred to as increase in the capital intensity.

The degree of capital intensity is easy to measure in nominal terms.

This means that capital intensity remains constant over time.

These refinements allow increasing capital intensity to be distinguished from technological progress.

This resulted in a lower capital intensity, which led to lower rates of labour productivity.

A not-surprising result is that low market share coupled with high capital intensity spells disaster.

Despite this increase in farm size and capital intensity, the great majority of agricultural production continued to be undertaken by family-owned enterprises.

But as accumulation accelerated, capital intensity increased.

Three criteria used to classify service systems include: customer contact, capital intensity, and level of customer involvement.

Capital intensity is the term for the amount of fixed or real capital present in relation to other factors of production, especially labor.

Its inverse is capital intensity.

Böhm-Bawerk's theory equates capital intensity with the degree of roundaboutness of production processes.

Tables 14.6 and 14.7 suggest that increased capital intensity within the UK may not necessarily lead to proportionate increases in output.

"That means that they can start selling it to other cable and satellite operators without the capital intensity of the initial Voom plan," he said.

The supply side equation (from (6-16)) is where is a measure of capital intensity defined in terms of physical factor inputs.

Across Eaton, outsourcing has been a means to reduce what Mr. Cutler calls its capital intensity.

The rate of growth of labor productivity is thus explained by the rate of growth of capital intensity.

The important question, however, is why high capital intensity is associated with lower ROI even when market share is high.

The Austrian School maintains that the capital intensity of any industry is due to the roundaboutness of the particular industry and consumer demand.

As in the real world, the capital intensity of production (capital cost per unit) differs between the sectors producing the different types of capital goods.

SGB received the No. 1 ranking for the economic viability criterion, a function of a company's cost of production, capital intensity and market risk.

The use of tools and machinery makes labor more effective, so rising capital intensity (or "capital deepening") pushes up the productivity of labor.

This explanation would be quite consistent with a cross-sectional picture in which capital intensity is inversely related to ROI even when market share is high.

Suppose that we now define as a measure of the capital intensity of the Y sector relative to the X sector as a whole.

Austrian School economist Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk maintained that capital intensity was measured by the roundaboutness of production processes.
