Variable capital

Japanese: 可変資本 - かへんしほん
Variable capital
The part of capital invested in production whose value changes during the production process. Capital invested in wages corresponds to this. In other words, it is labor power itself. The labor power of a laborer employed for wages produces more value than its equivalent (surplus value), which becomes the source of profit for the capital owner. As opposed to constant capital, whose value does not change.
