Description:Effective depreciation of means of work or fixed resources -machinery, equipment, buildings, infrastructure and transportation, among others- occurs due to the transfer of its value to the final product. In a purchase/sales firm, fixed depreciated resources become an essential means of entry, for both partial and total acquisitions as entry mode. Enterprise theories have paid little attention to the substantial influence of depreciated means of work, on acquisitions as a mode of entry. The role played by these depreciated resources is evident in the history of market conjunctions; recession, depression, growth and prosperity. In recession and depression, given the development of productive forces, these depreciated means become strategic resources. The mission of those resources is both to strengthen and to position the acquiring company in the global market. Depreciated resources help to counteract downward trend of the acquiring company’s average rate of profit. The present research seeks to contribute  to the resource based theory with a model that helps to analyze and explain the role of means of entry of the fixed depreciated resources, on the acquisitions as entry mode.
