Basically, economic policy knows the theory of money fertilization, how capital is created, how surplus value is created. Also, it should be underlined again the fact that it is not possible to convert some amount of money into capital, namely, it is not possible to create surplus value if that amount is not invested in the production process in which hired labor functions as a specific commodity, as a creator of value, therefore as the only creator of surplus value. In this paper, we will show how and by what methods the production of surplus value can be increased. Precisely, according to the applied methods for increasing the mass of surplus value, we can say that there are three types of surplus value: absolute surplus value, relative surplus value and extra surplus value.
