• Value creation versus value capture : towards a coherent definition of value in strategy - an exploratory study by Cliff Bowman and Wronique Ambrosini, Cranfield S chool of Management 1998
  • "An underlying theme of the paper is that appearances often prevent us from identifying the essential relationships between economic actors, and that many of the problems and confusion in mainstream economic theorising stem from the inability to separate these two levels of analysis." (p5)
  • "labour is the source of firm heterogeneity and hence can be the source of value." (p12)
  • "value is perceived by the customer and all purchases are subjectively assessed, even purchases of resource inputs." (p14)
  • "all firms that sell anything possess a temporal advantage. Value or consumer surplus is created by the artful deployment of the heterogeneous actions of labour with other resources." (p14)
  • "it is the nature of the employment relationship, the trading of labour power not labour output, and the appearance of homogeneity of labour power that enables the firm owners to capture value created by the sellers of labour power." (p21)
  • "A common theme in these theories [on profits] is the need to explain profits as some sort of reward for something that is done for the good of economic society." (p22)
  • "it is only where the entrepreneur deems it necessary to invest at a rate that cannot be sustained from his own funds that external fund providers enter the picture." (p24)
  • "although the physical contribution of money capital is homogeneous, its restricted supply gives its owners power to capture a share of the value created by the firm." (p24)
  • "The appearance is that suppliers of money capital create value. This is compounded ideologically with the notion of risk, and ‘rewards’ for risk bearing." (p25)
  • "Resources per se are not the source of profits; it is their artful deployment that mobilises them to exploit market opportunities in cost efficient ways that is the source of temporal monopoly profits." (p26)
  • "Although artful deployment is the source of value, bargaining relationships determine the capture of value. Profit is value captured by the firm." (p26)
