2 . (
Economics )
The share of the annual product or national dividend which goes as a reward to labor ,
as distinct from the remuneration received by capital in its various forms .
This economic or technical sense of the word wages is broader than the current sense ,
and includes not only amounts actually paid to laborers ,
but the remuneration obtained by those who sell the products of their own work ,
and the wages of superintendence or management ,
which are earned by skill in directing the work of others .
[
Webster 1913 Suppl .]
{
Wages fund } (
Polit .
Econ .),
the aggregate capital existing at any time in any country ,
which theoretically is unconditionally destined to be paid out in wages .
It was formerly held ,
by Mill and other political economists ,
that the average rate of wages in any country at any time depended upon the relation of the wages fund to the number of laborers .
This theory has been greatly modified by the discovery of other conditions affecting wages ,
which it does not take into account . --
