It is relatively easy, using i/o tables, to separate out these
two factors.

If it is possible to show with an "embodied labor" perspective
and empirical data (in this case, from input-output tables)
sectoral rates of exploitation,  the extent to which commodities
are sold above or below their value, and the transfers of  surplus
value among firms, then this might be claimed as a significant
advantage of that (i.e. "embodied labor") perspective.  Or, is
it?
