It is equally important to measure the trend and TFP growth when there is … the standard errors of factor shares are quite large. Thus, even when we account for structural change, TFP estimate …

We examine the contribution of incremental and radical innovations to total factor productivity (TFP) growth at the … accompanied by informal research. We find that radical innovations are the only significant contributors to TFP growth so that … innovation height matters. We also find evidence that TFP growth is better represented by an upward shift of the production …
