[edit]I don't understand Jim's preference for c/v over c:v. As I understand it from Ratio, "Ratios are not exactly the same thing as fractions. For example, if I have three pennies and five nickels, then the ratio of pennies to nickels is 3:5 or 3/5. This indicates that there are three fifths as many pennies as nickels. However the fraction of coins which are pennies is 3/(3+5) = 3/8. Thus the chances of a randomly selected coin being a penny are three in eight." So I'd prefer c:v. But I'm no great mathematician.

Criticism
[edit]This § was an especial mess and the counterargument I supplied could be considered OR but it should be possible to source it independent from my observation. 72.228.150.44 (talk) 00:28, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
"Human capital," "knowledge capital" tie-ins
[edit]There needs to be a tie-in to variable capital somewhere with regards to the "human capital" and "knowledge capital" concepts. Kjk2.1 (talk) 18:06, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
Some content looks like it's off topic
[edit]Is it just me or does this article look like it's gone beyond it's scope? Commodity fetishism? Even some of the discussion of theories of value probably doesn't belong here. BrianPansky (talk) 05:20, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
Requested move 7 September 2024

Constant capital → Constant and variable capital – This article is already, in reality, about both concepts. Since neither is more important than the other, the title should be changed to reflect the actual content. Nicknimh (talk) 19:15, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
