Returns to scale: concept, estimation and analysis of Japan's turbulent 1964-88 economy
Diewert, W. Erwin; Nakajima, Takanobu; Nakamura, Alice; … - In: Canadian Journal of Economics 44 (2011) 2, pp. 451-485
There is policy interest in factoring productivity growth into technical progress and returns to scale components. Our approach uses exact index number methods to reduce the parameters that must be estimated, and allows us to exploit the cross-sectional dimension of plant-level panel data. We...

Estimation of R&D depreciation rates: a suggested methodology and preliminary application
Huang, Ning; Diewert, Erwin - In: Canadian Journal of Economics 44 (2011) 2, pp. 387-412
The 2008 version of the SNA has recommended capitalization of R&D expenditures. To implement this recommendation, we need to determine the depreciation rate of R&D capital. In this paper, we develop a simple model, based on a production function method that allows for monopolistic competition,...
