The M-C-M’ diagram represents the wealthy class of the society compared to the working class people who fall under the C-M-C diagram. Understanding both of these diagrams is essential to have better knowledge about the wealth disparity and how certain people are able to maintain and grow their wealth. As mentioned, the C-M-C diagram represents the working class. According to this, people go to work to produce commodities (C) in exchange for money (M) and, later on, use that money to buy commodities (C) for their consumption. Here, the value of both (C) is the same. On the other hand, the M-C-M’ diagram says that a capitalist (wealthy class) invests an initial amount of money (M) into producing commodities (C). However, these commodities are not for personal consumption but to be used in a production process to create new commodities that can later be sold for more money (M’). The production process includes some critical transformations where the workers utilize the initial commodities and their labor power to create the final new commodity. According to Marx, this labor power from the worker is very important as it is the only commodity that, when applied, increases the value of what we already have. Once the production process is completed, the capitalist sells the final commodity in the market. By doing so, they receive a sum of money (M’) greater than their initial investment (M). Here, the difference between M’ and M is called the “surplus value,” which is the most critical thing to increase wealth. As the cycle continues, the capitalist tries to maximize their growth by increasing production. However, it is also important to keep in mind that the number of hours of necessary labor is invariable at any given time. So, they try to increase labor intensity by requiring the workers to speed up and oversee more machinery. This way, by spending the same amount on the labor force, the capitalist can increase productivity from the workers. This continuous reinvestment and expansion allow a capitalist to not only maintain his wealth but also increase it over time.
