Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Profits' is a landmark contribution to economic theory, authored by William Trufant Foster and Waddill Catchings. This comprehensive study delves into the fundamental mechanics of the capitalist system, focusing on the distribution of wealth and the factors that drive economic cycles. The authors present a rigorous analysis of how profits are generated and, more importantly, how the failure of consumer purchasing power to keep pace with production leads to periods of depression and unemployment.Known for introducing the influential underconsumption theory, this work challenges traditional economic assumptions of its time. Foster and Catchings argue that for a business system to remain stable, the money paid out to consumers must be sufficient to purchase the goods produced at a price that yields a profit. By examining the roles of savings, investment, and monetary flow, 'Profits' offers a deep exploration of the structural imbalances that trigger financial crises. This book remains an essential read for those interested in the history of economic thought, business cycles, and the evolution of modern fiscal policy.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
