Piero Sraffa on Value added - Dictionary of Arguments
Kurz I 27 Value added/Sraffa/Kurz: Once a standard of value (or numéraire) is fixed and the share of wages (or, alternatively, the rate of interest) is given, prices and the rate of interest (or, alternatively, the share of wages) can be determined. However, as soon as prices are ascertained so is the value of the net product of the system, the value of the capital employed in each industry and in the economy as a whole, etc. In other words, the ‘value added’ is known. This value added depends on prices and therefore on income distribution. >Wages/Sraffa, >Wages/Ricardo, >Surplus value/Economics. Kurz, Heinz; Salvadori, Neri 2015.
