People and companies usually generate capital goods throughout our lives. They are those goods that remain over time and that could be considered as an investment. In the case of companies, we understand capital goods as those necessary and high-cost machines that will be part of the company for a long period of time and that, in most cases, will help in the manufacturing or production process. of the product with which it would later be used for marketing.

These capital goods are usually essential when it comes to being able to carry out a job since they allow the transformation of raw materials, their collection, the transport of products, storage spaces... However, there are other capital goods that serve as an investment, that is, the company does not need it for its daily work, but it has the necessary purchasing power to buy a machine or an infrastructure that produces greater profitability.

The main characteristic of these capital goods is that, due to their long duration in companies, they have wear and tear caused by use. Oxygen, constant use, the damage it may suffer, the deterioration of the material... all of this directly affects the property, although in general they are not usually appreciated in a radical way, but rather appear over time. .

Another of the problems that we find in capital goods is that technologies advance at great speeds and this applies to almost all areas. People in our day to day life can appreciate how a few years ago appliances and other technological devices had a very long life and if you bought a new one it was because of the wear and tear mentioned above. Now, there is constant investment in research and development, so capital goods tend to become obsolete faster as newer models offer better features.
