d - Labour and capital intensity

Distinguish labour-intensive from capital-intensive production.

Use d - labour and capital intensity to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because d - labour and capital intensity determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply d - labour and capital intensity to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: d - Labour and capital intensity is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
