as a factor of production what is capital
Factors of production The classical economists also employed the word "capital" in reference to money. Money, however, was not considered to be a factor of production in the sense of capital stock since it is not used to directly produce any good. The return to loaned money or to loaned stock was styled as interest while the return to the actual proprietor of capital stock (tools, etc.) was styled as profit. See also returns.
Market capitalization Market cap is given by the formula   M C = N × P  {\textstyle MC=N\times P} , where MC is the market capitalization, N is the number of shares outstanding, and P is the closing price per share.
