39 Basic Relations in simulation models
Strictly deterministic relations (inspired by Rainer Thiel) Definition equations Static balance equations Dynamic balance equations Behavioral equations Stochastic relations (inspired by Herbert Hörz) Randomness as residual/error, Randomness essential, but constant Randomness essential, but variable

40 Mathemathic codification 0: Definition equations
Main element: “variable” with an associated quality/dimension and a certain quantity Types of definition equations: A: A new variable of same dimension is constructed by other variables of the same dimension, but different quantities Example: Circumference of a triangle is equal to the sum of the length of the three sides. B: A new variable of new dimension is constructed by other variables of the same dimension, but different quantities Example: Area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width. C: A new variable of new dimension is constructed by other variables of the different dimension and different quantities. wir Example: Labour is force times distance, turnover equals unit price times volumes. Although definition equations look simple, their identification was a cumbersome and erroneous process (like “energy” or “force”)

41 Mathemathic codification 1: Static Balance Equation conservation laws; e.g. input-output-tables, national accounting schemes L := l1 + l2 + l3 + l4 R := r1 + r2 + r3 l3 „Unequal quantities of equal qualities sum up to a quantity of equal quality“ l1 l2 l4 r1 r2 „Only the unequal becomes equal“ „Equal quantities must consist of unequal qualities“ r3 L = R

42 Mathemathic codification 2: Dynamic Balance Equation inventory equation, dynamic population balance, capital accumulation, dynamic accounting schemes Dx(t, t+1) x(t+Dt) = x(t) + Dx(t, t+1) The only qualitative difference between left and right: Position in time reality is constructed by „stocks“ and „flows“ Basis for the mirroring of dynamic processes (difference and/or differential equations) x(t) x(t+Dt) t > t +Dt

43 Mathemathic codification 3: Behavioral equations cause-effect-schemes; e.g. multi-variate Blalock-model, econometric equations, neural networks x1 D + y y(t) = f [ x1(t), x2(t),…] D - x2 y x Modifications: linear nonlinear stochastic delays Feedback -> y x y x D

44 Causal Loop Diagrams Negative feedback: goal seeking, oscillations (D)
Target value State value D Positive feedback: exponential growth reaction discrepancy wages Demand for higher wages cost pressure prices

58 How can we characterize the I-O system?
Try to find invariants which will increase the understanding of the economy and allow also for comparisons -> standardize the figures Easy procedure: divide each figure of the intermediary table by the corresponding output of the sector. Be aware of the units of measurement! The figures of one column are divided by the same numbers: aij = zij/xj Result: Matrix A = {aij } of technical coefficients: input needed for the production of one unit of output (in this case in monetary units, e.g. Euro or ATS)

59 Standardized I-O: Example Austria 1976
ATSi per ATSj Sector j=1 j=2 j=3 i=1 0,16 0,13 0,02 i=2 0,17 0,34 0,14 i=3 0,09 0,12 0,18 sum 1+2+3 0,42 0,59 value added/ output 0,58 0,41 0,66 Stand. 1,00 l = labor/ Persons per mill ATS 3,29 1,97 2,93 Technol. coeff matrix A = { aij}

60 Ax + Cx + Sx = x Simplified two-class model of extended reproduction
There are only two loops in the system, accumulation of capital and reproduction of labor power No explicit public sector, closed economy All capital investment goes to capitalists All consumption goes to laborers Final demand approximated by two matrices C = c w‘ /(1‘c) (consumption matrix, w wages) S = i p‘ / (1‘i) (surplus matrix, i investmt, p profits) Fixed capital is represented by K = i k‘ / (1‘i) (capital matrix, k fixed capital) Ax + Cx + Sx = x

But there is a third way also. It is leading to the societal sphere….. Human labor is THE activity which makes human beings different from animals Excursion: what is the difference between labor and other human activities?

79 Human labor and other human activities
Labor is a special human activity which could in principle be performed by someone else. The person performing the activity is replaceable. This is in contrast to human activities which are related to the individual personality and individual experience => Labor bears an internal and an external aspect for the individual worker

80 Labor does exist formally and informally
While formal labor is remunerated by wages (like in the case of employees) or compensated by income via the market (like in the case of self-employed), informal labor is not directly compensated financially (e.g. the work of wives in households or social work during leisure time). The contemporary economic system does not deal with informal labor, nevertheless a comparison between formal and informal labor might be interesting.

82 Fragestellung „Die positive Fragestellung, die sich NUR mit Hilfe der Arbeitswerttheorie beantworten lässt, geht von der Tatsache aus, dass die wachsenden Wirtschaften laufend einen größeren Output als Input erstellen, d.h. der Ertrag übersteigt die Kosten. Ertrag und Kosten können prinzipiell in drei Dimensionen definiert werden, in Mengengrößen, in monetären (Preis-) Größen und Arbeitswertgrößen. Die Mengenrechnung hat nur sehr eingeschränkte Verwendbarkeit, da sie bei den vielen heterogenen Gütern zu keiner einheitlichen Ertrags- bzw. Kostenziffer führt. Anders ist dies bei der monetären und Arbeitswertrechnung. Während jedoch die monetären Größen keine exakte Widerspiegelung der Menge darstellen, sondern sich bei inflationären Entwicklungen davon lösen, bestehen zwischen Gütermengen und den in ihnen steckenden Arbeitsmengen genaue technische Beziehungen. Es liegt somit nahe, zu untersuchen, wie mit einem gegebenen Arbeitsquantum als Input eine wachsende Gütermenge hergestellt werden kann und welche Relation zwischen Arbeitsmenge und Gütermenge besteht. Um den Output (Brutto- oder Nettoproduktion einer Volkswirtschaft) und den Input als Ausdruck von Arbeitsmengen begreifen zu können, ist es notwendig, die Produktionsmittel, also das sogenannte Kapital, auf Arbeit zurückzuführen." (H.G.Zinn, Arbeitswertheorie, Westberlin, 1972, S.10)

84 Die Ware besitzt Gebrauchswert (value in use, Nutzen)
Tauschwert (value in exchange) Wertgröße = durchschnittliche gesellschaftlich notwendige Arbeitszeit (¹ individuellem Arbeitszeitaufwand) Mehrwert = Gesellschaftliche Arbeitszeit, die über jene Arbeitszeit hinausgeht, die für die einfache Reproduktion notwendig ist Technischer Fortschritt reduziert den Stückwert = durchschnittl. Arbeitszeitaufwand pro Stück

85 Setting the stage: Basic terms in Marxian Political Economics
commodity value in use value in exchange (labour)value constant capital variable capital surplus value rate of surplus value/rate of exploitaiton organic composition of capital rate of profit

86 the composition of labour value w
new labour (live labour) n w = c + n pre-done labour c

87 labour value w and its composition
surplus value (profit) new labour (live labour) n w = c + n = c + v + m variable capital (wages) v c c constant capital (fix and circulating capital) pre-done labour

88 three essential Marxian indicators
rate of surplus value = m / v organic composition of capital = v / (c + v) profit rate = m / (c + v) = rate of surplus value * organic = m / v * v / (c + v) m surplus value (profit) new labour (live labour) n variable capital (wages) v c c constant capital (fix and circulating capital) pre-done labour

89 (Labor time) value of output
w = c + n = c + v + m w labor time value of output c constant capital n newly created value = socially necessary labor v variable capital (wage bill) m surplus value

90 Labor value is fixed in the market
w = c + n = c + v + m There is a difference between individual value market value (average value) Market Engine to compare individual performance with the performance of society Rewards the efficient Punishes the less productive Creates a tendency towards more efficiency Labor values shrinking with technical/organis. improvements

91 Various indicators Capital advanced: K = c + v
Capital available after selling: K'= c + v + m Rate of surplus (exploitation rate): e = m/v Organic composition of capital: o = v/(c + v) Classical rate of profit per production period: r = m / (c + v) = e.o Annual rate (dimensions corrected): ra = m / (cf + cz.Tz + v.Tv) cf … fixed constant capital cz … circulating constant capital Tz,Tv … turnover periods

92 Classical indicators in matrix terms
Capital advanced: K = w(A+C)x Capital available after selling: K'=wAx+L Rate of surplus: e = (L - wCx)/wCx Organic composition of capital: o= wCx/w(A+C)x Classical rate of profit per production period: r = (L - wCx)/w(A+C)x = e.o

100 transformation of labor values into prices (transformation problem)
Marx‘ solution pp(0) = w or w* pp(1) = pp(0) R [1 + r ] 1 + r = [pp(0) x] / [pp(0) R x] Difficulty: input prices ≠ output prices von Bortkiewicz solution two identical solutions with different philosophical implications a) Eigenvector solution: pp ... left-hand Eigenvector of R pp R (1 + r) = pp, largest eigenvalue of R: λ=1/(1+r) b) iterative solution: i -> ∞ Marx‘ solution: i = 1 pp = pp(∞); pp(0) = w or w* pp(i) = pp(i-1) R [1 + r(i-1)], 1 + r(i) = [pp(i) x] / [pp(i) R x]

101 Marx’s solution of the transformation of labor values into prices of production
Basis: costs of production In terms of labor values of commodities Profit added Share of total value added proportionally to costs of production Result “prices of production” Intrinsic problem input prices are different from output prices Proposed solution Iterative application of Marx’s method

102 How to determine the average rate of profit?
pp(A+C)(1+r) = pp -> pp[ 1/(1+r) I – A - C ] = 0 Eigenvalue-Equation for l = 1/(1+r) : pp (A + C) = l pp Non-trivial solution for pp, if and only if determinant of the matrix MDET( l I – A - C ) = 0 Hint: Solve it in Excel by its solver-function

Alternative Solution: Variable quantities of consumer goods A combined approach of marginal utility theory (demand function for consumer goods and labor theory of value (to determine prices by labor content and modified by equalized rates of profit) Result: Instead of one solution there are two High price and high profit rate, low consumption level Low price and low profit rate, high consumption level

107 Does every wage-earner create surplus value?
w = c + n = c + v + m Here comes the story of an agrarian society consisting only of a farmers. What will be the effect to the surplus if They bring an additional farmer into their society? They bring a shaman into their society?

108 the role of services and productivity measures
Two sources of inspiration Productive and unproductive labour (Adam Smith) Material Product System (MPS) vs System of National Accounts (SNA – Richard Stone)

109 Does every worker create additional value?
My answer is: “no” Value is a concept to make qualitative different things comparable The common background is labor power embodied in physical goods If there is no physical/material good, there is no surplus, and there is no value nor surplus value Accumulation is based on surplus and surplus value, which is the basis for profits and the profit rate This statement is equivalent to: human beings cannot live without a material environment and without exchange of material flows (metabolism) with nature

110 There is value creating labor and value consuming labor
Value creating labor results in things, which can be stored, resold and accumulated Value consuming labor results in pure use-values, which are useful, but cannot be stored, neither resold nor accumulated A typical sector of value consuming labor is the service sector All the value consuming sectors have zeros in the rows of the S (surplus) matrix = their output cannot be invested But, their output can have important indirect effects (e.g. increasing the productivity of labor)

111 Examples and borderline cases of value consuming production
Services Education Entertainment (opera ticket) Material production The story of the coffee mugs Customer specific production Energy transformation Software production

112 Labor Values w [labor time]
j=1 2 3 …. i =1 2 3 .. A A12 A A22 * C C12 C C22 * S11 <= S12 * Final Demand Cons/Inv/ Exp/-Imp “ “ “ “ “ “ = Output w1C12x2+ w2C22x2 L *Note: All matrices have to be premultiplied by diag(w) and postmultiplied by diag(x) w1C11x1 + w2C21x1 L1 Total surplus value L1 – (w1C11+w2C21)x1 Output

113 Possible effects of an expansion of value consuming sectors
Effects of first order (ceteris paribus) Decrease of the average rate of profit Reduction of the rate of economic growth Example: Outsourcing and GDP (“vertical” and “horizontal” growth, labor productivity change) Possible secondary effects Services may increase their own productivity of labor and the productivity of other sectors by improving technology and management techniques This may compensate for the effects of first order

114 The labour of some of the most respectable orders in the society is, like that of menial servants, unproductive of any value, and does not fix or realize itself in any permanent subject; or vendible commodity, which endures after that labour is past, and for which an equal quantity of labour could afterwards be procured...…In the same class must be ranked, some both of the gravest and most important, and some of the most frivolous professions: churchmen, lawyers, physicians, men of letters of all kinds; players, buffoons, musicians, opera-singers, opera-dancers, &c. …Like the declamation of the actor, the harangue of the orator, or the tune of the musician, the work of all of them perishes in the very instant of its production. Smith, Adam, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, Book II, Chapter III, Of the Accumulation of Capital, or of Productive and Unproductive Labour,

115 treating services as value consuming
there is an essential difference between goods (= material products) and services services do not contribute neither to surplus product, nor to surplus value, they as such cannot be resold nor accumulated nor invested, because they are consumed when they are produced In „Das Kapital“, Vol I, Marx dealt only with material products where according to his labour theory of value (LTV) the principle of equivalent exchange holds. principle of equivalent exchange : goods are exchanged according to their content of social necessary labour if service sectors are allowed to make profits (as it is the case under capitalism), the principle of equivalent exchange is violated and LTV is no longer valid

116 How to determine labour values that obey the principle of equivalent exchange?
A... partitioned matrix of technical coefficients C... partitioned matrix of unit consumption R… partitioned matrix of unit reproduction n... partitioned row vector of unit live labour = { n1, n2 } w... partitioned row vector of labour values = { w1, w2 } I.... Identity matrix A 11, A C11, C12 A = { }, C = { }, R = A + C A21, A C21, C22 w: „classical“ labour values: all industries are value producer w = n (I – A)-1 w*: value production in material sectors only w* = { n1(I – A11)-1 , n1(I – A11)-1 (A12+C12) [I-(A22+C22)]-1 }

117 Construction of the consumption matrix C in analogy to A
Consumption matrix C (on unit-level) C = c v diag(x) / (vx) diag(x)-1 = c v / (vx) c... column vector of consumption v... row vector of unit wages x... column vector of output p... row vector of unit prices pC = v Cx = c

118 Construction of the surplus matrix S in analogy to A
Surplus Matrix S (on unit-level) S = s m diag(x) / (mx) diag(x)-1 = s m / (mx) s... column vector of surplus product m... row vector of unit surplus value (or unit profit) x... column vector of output p... row vector of unit prices pS = m Sx = s

119 Services in a simplyfied Leontief economy
primal: (A + C + S)x = x dual: p(A + C + S) = p S... partitioned matrix of unit surplus product S11, S12 S = { } surplus product s = (I – A - C)x S21, S22 If services are present, S21 = 0 and S22 = 0, because services do not contribute to surplus product Sub-matrix S12 is crucial: If principle of equivalent exchange holds, S12 = 0. Material producers can fully invest, services cannot invest at all

120 Effects on the service sector
Growing S12 -> higher service prices p*2 = p2 + p1S12(E – R22)-1; x*2 = x2 Reallocation of C11x1, consumption in sector 1 towards services -> x2 increases x*2 = x2 + C11 x1 / (A12 + C12); p*2 = p2 Multiple accounting under SNA (seen from MPS) Double accounting, if diagonal matrices=0

137 Conclusions on price systems
While A and C may remain constant, Changes in the price system go together with changes of the surplus matrix S Changes of S must leave the row sums of Sdiag(x) invariant (no change in the surplus product, but change in the distribution of profits) In mathematical terms this can be done by post-multiplication of S by an appropriately chosen Markov-matrix The changes result in a change of sectorial profits resp. surplus values, and sectorial rates of profit resp. rates of surplus

140 Three measures of productivity
Productivity(1), productivity of use value, number of use-values per working hour (independent of relations of production Productivity(2), productivity of labour value, 0 or 1 (productive vs. unproductive labour: Adam Smith). Important to characterize the difference between goods and services Productivity(3), productivity of profit, measured by profit over live labour in working hours. Productivity measure of capitalism, proposed by Marx
