Capital goods affected my groups production because we were scarce of some nessescary items. So we had used extra time to think of how to produce our items. My group got all of our needs by trading. We trading something that we had already used or did not need for things that we did need.

Despite having the second lowest capital goods we made up for that by cannibalizing our yellow-orange folder, however our measurements were off so we got second place.

the capital goods affected our production because we had the second least amount of materials. we didn't have much to make our production. our group did fairly well with a lack of capital goods we placed 2nd and almost got first because our measurements were off

One of our struggles was not having yellow paper or a ruler (capital goods). Not having yellow paper affected us a lot because we had to make a house with a yellow roof but then we found out we could use the envolope. Then for the ruler we traded for it and it help we mesured the paper and fixed. That is how capital goods affected us.

Capital goods affected my group because we had a yellow paper, some paperclips, a pen and pencil, and a ruler. We got more things by trading with other groups. We made the book with our yellow paper and traded to get some red and green paper which we were making a paper chain out of but didn't get to finish.

Capital goods affected or production because during our assignment we didn't have a ruler so we didn't know what to do but we figured it out and it was accurate. We use one of a members past experience and use our figure as a inch since she knew what a inch was on her finger.

Capital goods affected my groups production because we had the most capital goods. we still didnt have everything we needed to complete the project and we had to trade some unessacy items for them.My group traded another group a penicil for white paper to compelte our asiment. our team worked together and one 1 place and we made sure our messerment was not off.

our group started with more capital goods so we had an advantage we were only missing one thing so our group traded to get what we needed.

Capital goods affected my production by limiting how much my group could make. Because of this we decided to start ripping apart our envelope to use it as yellow paper. Then we started trading to gain a ruler and pencil. With a lack of capital goods I feel our group did fairly well.

the capital goods affected our production because. All we had was paper and then we found out we could trade items and people wanted the paper. and we found out there was stickey stuff on the back of the paper.

We had a lot of capital goods, but no one needed to get what we had. We had nothing but education. We didn't have time to finish because we were trying to figure out how to do it. In the end, we only had education and maybe food. also, there was only 1 group left at the end, and they only had paper. we tried to trade to get what we needed, but we had nothing to trade.

We were affected by the capital goods roughly because all we had to work with was paper. We had a bunch of red paper, but we had no yellow paper, and nothing to connect it with. So we turned to ripping the envelope so we can have yellow, and we used the sticky part to connect paper to paper. Since we had so much red paper, we turned to trading that for a ruler to make our food. Once we were done with that, we traded the ruler for the paperclip to make the book. That's how we made nothing into something!

Having no capital goods affected my teams making of product, because we didn't even have any items except paper. We did manage to make all the products with a lack of capital goods. My team managed to get all the items by ripping are envelope and trading items other people needed that we had for things we needed. One example for trading is how we traded some of our green paper for a ruler so we could measure the food and the shelter.

The yellow paper was good for the book, and the paper clips worked for the paper chain to hold them together. That's how the capital goods affected our production. Our group compensated for lack of capital goods by trading with other people, even though a lot of people did not want to trade with us. Then Luke made a bad trade by making us gain paper we didn't really need, and making us lose a ruler. In the end, we did not have the chance to finish making all of our things.

The capital goods affected my group's production in positive and negative ways. In a negative way, we were low on an item that we needed. In a positive way, we traded for items and got creative with our book. Our group had the most capital goods, so it was easier for us to make our objects. Our group finished first and our measurements were correct.

The capital goods affected us because we had the second most so we had a little advantage. It was hard because we could not find anyone to trade with because they either did not have what we wanted or they did not want the things we have.

Brantley Griffin

Our group had the most capital goods. Yet, it affected our group because we took everything and didn't use our resources useful. Our group compensated for lack of goods by making sure we had enough paper, tools to use, and make sure we could finish all of the four productions. We ended up finishing third because of the disagreements of what we should do.

Ryleigh Bucher

The lack of capital goods effected us in a negative way. We had to think longer and pay better attention to how much we were using. We didn't end up finishing because we didn't have enough materials which made it take longer to make a solution.We had to start over on a few things because we didn't take the time to measure things perfectly. My group used the envelope to build or shelter and we thought about trading but we didn't need to. Our group could have worked together better. Mary, Audrina, Makayla, Caleb, and Rylee

The capital goods that we were given affected our production because we were limited to the items that we could use. This also affected us because we had 4 different objects to produce that took up a lot of resources. We had to make all of the products really small, so that we would not use so many resources. We also discovered that we could use the folder itself to help with the products, so we made the shelter entirely out of the folder and used the other resources on other products. Eventually, we finished first with a lot of materials left over.

Noah Barnett

Our group didn't have too much capital goods so we made our stuff very small so since we were short on supplies we decided to use the envelope and the tape on the paper we got with the things we had to make on it. So me and Elli made the book, Lucas made the chain, Iverson and Brylee made the clothes, and Evelyn made the shelter.

I was in group 4. We had the least amount of capital goods. The only things we had were 3 sheets of paper. The amount of capital goods affected our production a lot. For instance, we didn't have scissors to cut things. We also didn't have glue, pencils, or paperclips. So, we had little to nothing to work with. We compensated for our lack of goods by carefully using our items, and using as little as possible for each thing we had to make. We also tore paper and used our creativity to put things together.

Iverson

2022-11-11 17:10:17 UTC

We had the second to least amount of capital goods. We didn't know we could trade, so we tried our best to use what we could. We had 2 half sheets of paper, 4 paper clips, scissors, and we decided to use the envelope and some tape from the task sheet. Still, we ended up finishing first, and winning. We had a bit of trouble trying to decide how we were going to make all of the products we had to make. But, I had a lot of fun. I had to do clothing, and use paper clips to cut them out because we only had one pair of scissors.

Capital goods affected my group in a helpful but also obstructive way. My group had the most capital goods but we also had to make larger things with little materials for the amount of people we had. My group cut the envelope and used that paper. We also cut what we needed off of paper and started with the smallest things first so that way we wouldn't run out of supplies. We also created all the other objects smaller with an exception of the house so we had more paper for it. My group also checked with each other to make sure the materials that they were using weren't needed by anybody else. At the end we finished 3 objects because of an object that spent the time that my group had to create items.

Makayla

The capital goods affected my group in many ways. My group didn't have many supplies so we had to get creative with certain things. We had to be careful with how much paper we used because we only had one piece and we had to use it for multiple things. It was hard to complete because of the disagreements and lack of resources but when we put our ideas together it started to become easier. Our group didn't finish but we still made a lot of progress.

Evelyn Wright

When we did the project, we had some struggles. we had some pretty good supplies but we didn't have a clue what to do. Our semi-amount of resources ended in us having to come up with the idea to also use the envelope to help. we had to think of ways to use the least amount of resources as possible. the next thing we needed to find out was our measurements, luckily we had some paper clips and due to our past knowledge, we figured it was about an inch. using the paperclips we made our house somewhat similar to a 2 x 4 house/shelter. In the end, we were able to finish our needed assignments. We also ended up with resources to spare!

Even though we had the most capital goods, it still affected our group. Our group had lots of things to use like paper, glue, and scissors, but we still needed more to finish our production. We realized that we could use our envelope as resources, so we cut it up and we were able to finish. But, the bad thing is that our group had disagreements so we finished third.

The capital goods affected my group in both positive and negative ways. The positive way it affected my group was that we had a lot of paper meaning we could rip it into tiny parts and work off of those, But the negative way it affected us was that we only had paper and nothing else. The group got over only having paper by making the parts we wanted to cut wet therefore making a cleaner cut and making the use of scissors unneeded. Due to this we were able to produce all of our items.

The amount of capital goods we had affected our production because we had to use the smallest amount of our goods to make the stuff we needed. We had the least amount of stuff. we didn't have much to work with so we used the envelope too. We didn't do much trading, for we had the items needed, though if we had scissors or glue, it would have been easier. Our group didn't have much to give up either. To compensate, we didn't trade what we had but worked with it and kept extras, we used our scraps from other projects to make other things too.

Olivia NeSmith

The capital goods affected our production in a good way because we had the most materials out of the 4 groups. Because we had the most materials we had to build bigger things that used more materials. Even though we had the most materials, we still didn't have that much, so we used the envelope to make a shelter and the rest of the materials to make food, clothes, and education. Each part of the group worked on different parts so we could finish in time. Our group finished 3rd because we were arguing over the shelter.

Caleb Waters

Capital goods affected our production because we did not have much supplies. All we had was a piece of paper, a pencil, 3 paper clips, and a ruler. Also, we used too much paper on the food chain and did not use the ruler. We also ran out of time and did not finish.

Mary Barnwell

It affected our production because we only had certain things so it made it where we couldn't just pick anything. So, you have to be really created. First we used the envelope for the tent. Then we used our yellow paper for the food chain, and the door, and the windows. With the remainder of the envelope and paper we made some clothes. Then we used the yellow paper also for our education book along with a paper clip. With the other paper clips we support them to support our tent.

Capital goods affected production because my group didn't want to waste anything. With limited resources we decided to make everything cost efficient and not be wasteful. To compensate for the lack of capital goods, we used the package that we were given. We also made very tiny clothes to not use much paper. For the house we used one piece of paper and a tiny door with a window in the side. For the book we used the package to get the four colors needed to complete education. In conclusion we found out how to save capital goods and use them wisely.

We had very scarce capitol goods and it affected our production very intensely. We had no scissors, no glue, or any other thing that would help us produce what we needed. We were also the group who got the least amount of stuff. Although we didn't have what we needed, we had the brains to figure it out. My sister, a while back, taught me a trick for a perfect tear without scissors, and I know this will sound gross but, you fold it, lick the crease of the paper, fold it again, and lick it once more. We worked through the items on the list, and ended up getting second place.

in my group we had to make a lot of goods we needed scissors to cut but we did not have any because we were the fourth group with the smallest amount of things to make our goods so we used what we had we used Vivian's tongue to make the rips of paper precise, which to our entire group was gross, but we had to do it because it was the only way to rip the paper in a strait line. we had to make a book with one color and it had to have two pieces of paper in the book little did we know that it did not have to have a cover, but when we made the book we made the pages removable so if it did not have to have to have a cover or a back we were able to take the pages out of the book and got the education thing done i was the one that was doing the clothes and the rest of the stuff the rest of the stuff was made by the rest of the group. i loved my group because they were really funny and were really creative on what we should do to make the goods.

My groups capital goods effected our production both good and bad. In a bad way, we had the least amount of supplies. All we had was scissors, 2 pieces of paper, paper clips, and we used our envelope and the tape that was on it. In a positive way, we made everything we had work out and ended up having leftover supplies. We got creative with our clothing, food, education, and shelter. To make it easier and waste less of our supplies we made our things tiny. We made a small paper chain out of the envelope and green paper, tiny shirts and pants out of our white pants, a small book out of the envelope and green paper, and we made a decent sized shelter out of the envelope and tape. After that we finished first and still had a lot leftover.

Capital goods affected our production mostly in positive ways, but also in some negative ways. We had a lot of capital goods in our package but we still did not have as much as we needed. So, we divided the paper so that we could make what we needed. We tried to use as little paper, and other goods, as possible for each thing that we needed to make. We also had scissors in our package, so it made it easier to divide the pieces of paper. We brainstormed ideas on how we could make the shelter. We decided to make a shelter out of the packaging. Overall, we worked well together and had the right amount of materials left over.

we did not have many capital goods so we had to use what we had( 2 papers 4 paper clips and 1 pair of  Scissors) and use them as best as we could to ration them out. We used paper for mini clothes. We made a very small paper chain (about 1 inch ) with 2 different color paper made by Lucas. We had to make a 2 by 4 shelter so we made a house out of parts of a folder and some green paper with an open and closing door made by Evelyn. We also had to make a book out of 2 different colored papers so we used some tape from the folder to make it stick by Noah and Elli . since we had only 1 pair of Scissors we used paper clips to help us cut out clothes made by me and Iverson.

We had the second to the most capital goods, this effected us in negative and positive ways. In positive ways we had everything that we needed, such as pencils, paper, a pen, and a ruler. In negative ways this was that we didn't read the instructions too well so we used the paper not very well, then had to make the education (book) and clothes very small.

in my group our supplies affected us negatively we were given very little materials. we had nothing to cut with, nothing to put items together with. our production was negative. for instance, Vivian had used her tongue to make the cuts precise. Most of the items we created were miniscule. our capital goods that we were given were very small. we had no tools and just used our selves
