*noun*; term coined by Adam Smith (1723-1790) to refer to things used to produce other things. Usually people refer to four factors of production:
1.labor (not the same thing as workers); a worker can work more or less hours per week, and can exchange her labor for payment
2. capital; includes tools, machinery, plants and fixtures, seed corn, etc. Adam Smith distinguished between inventories, which he called circulating capital, and tools, which he called fixed capital;
3. land; understood as a specific area on the earth's surface, but sometimes incorporates the natural productivity or mineral resources as well;
4. entrepreneurship; sometimes lumped with capital. Includes the combination of skills required to start a business.
Different economic systems vary in their view of who should own the factors of production. In capitalism, this would be private individuals; in communism, it would be a collective. In the Marxist transition to communism, it would be the state.

An international version of the Scandinavian "Fultal", literally: "Ugly Number". Simply the amount of partners a person has slept with, multiplied by the difference in age between the youngest and oldest.
Ex. 15 partners, youngest born 1985, oldest 1975, filth factor of 150.

The single factor not taken into account in any situation, which usually leads to catastrophe.
The fact that Joe didn't clean the beaker properly was the absent factor in the experiment that lead to the explosion in the lab.
- Females flushing tampon down toilet clogging septic system.
- Dude getting kicked out of his own house because of girls night.
-“Stupid bitch, I told you a thousand times not to flush tampons down the toilet, gash factor”!
- Man, whenever those girls get together, it’s like, “gash-factor” times 10.
This factor is incorporated into any monetary calculations where escalation is anticipated based on mathematical models that have zero accuracy and are presented as having merit.
