Abstract
Capital includes both tangible and intangible components, which are also known as “physical” and “human” capital, respectively. In this chapter, physical capital refers to fixed capital unless otherwise indicated, although inventory capital is also briefly discussed. While the chapters on geography (A) and agriculture (G) provide statistics on land mass and arable acreage, respectively, this chapter reproduces the value of landed asset as estimated by a team of researchers at the Bank of Korea, including the total and unit value of dry and paddy fields, woodland, and sites for residential and industrial buildings.
