Capital-skill complementarity : evidence from manufacturing industries in Ghana

Akay, Gokhan H.; Yuksel, Mutlu - 2009

purpose of this study is to determine whether the capital-skill complementarity framework holds for Ghana manufacturing plants … in industry and aggregate level. We use an unbalanced panel of plant-level data for manufacturing firms in Ghana during … suggest that capital-skill complementarity holds in aggregate level and wood-furniture sector in Ghana. However, we reject the …

Curvature conditions and substitution pattern among capital, energy, materials and heterogeneous labour

Falk, Martin; Koebel, Bertrand M. - 1999

This study deals with the determinants of factor demand in 27 industries of the manufacturing sector during the period 1978 to 1990. Using a quadratic cost function, six production factors are distinguished : capital, energy, three types of labour and intermediate materials. A parametric test of...

The empirical assessment of technology differences : comparing the comparable

Frondel, Manuel; Schmidt, Christoph M. - 2002

This paper compares technologies across space and time on the basis of factual and counterfactual substitution elasticities and argues that differences in estimated substitution elasticities should be decomposed into two counterfactual components. While the first component is designed to...

Substitution elasticities between capital, labour, material, electricity and fossil fuels in German producing and service sectors

Koschel, Henrike - 2000

In this paper, substitutional relationships between capital, labour, material, electricity, and fossil fuels in German producing and service sectors are estimated using a translog cost function. Estimates are based on a pooled time-series cross-sectional data sample for the period 1978-90 and...

People and machines : a look at the evolving relationship between capital and skill in manufacturing 1860 - 1930 using immigration shocks

Lafortune, Jeanne; Tessada, José A.; Lewis, Ethan - 2015

This paper estimates the elasticity of substitution between capital and skill using variation across U.S. counties in immigration-induced skill-mix changes between 1860 and 1930. We find that capital began as a q-complement for skilled and unskilled workers, and then dramatically increased its...
