immobilization time Explanation: This is the amount of time that funds are tied-up (immobilized) in the production process: Interest on working capital: This is an opportunity cost. Working capital comprises the combined costs generated by factors of production invested during the production period, and which are used up in a single process. Since this is a form of capital, it generates certain costs in the form of interest, which naturally depend on the interest rate applied and the time that the investments of each factor remain immobilized during the production period - that is, the time taken to recover the capital invested in each factor, through the sale of the product obtained. With regard to the interest rate, the base generally used is the price of money, as per bank and savings banks loans, which we shall set at 5 percent. The immobilization time is defined as the average or maturity period of the production process, and is calculated as the average of the product of each capital invested in the factors used and the time taken to recover the said capital, weighted with the sum of the invested capital.
