Abstract

In paragraph 31 of his Principles Uno illustrates the labour-and-production process by means of the following numerical example: 6 kg. of raw cotton, one spinning machine, and 6 hours of labour produce 6 kg. of cotton yarn.1 It is assumed that no surplus labour is performed. It is also assumed that the 6 kg. of raw cotton embody 20 hours of labour, and the current depreciation of the spinning machine is worth 4 hours of labour. Hence the means of production already embody 24 hours of labour. This and the 6 hours of current labour thus produce the 6 kg. of cotton yarn which embody 30 hours of labour.
