Central Economic

We build a model of firm-level innovation, productivity growth, and reallocation featuring endogenous entry and exit. A new and central economic force is the selection between high- and low-type firms, which differ in terms of their innovative capacity. We estimate the parameters of the model using US Census microdata on firm-level output, R&D, and patenting. The model provides a good fit to the dynamics of firm entry and exit, output, and R&D. Taxing the continued operation of incumbents can lead to sizable gains (of the order of 1.4 percent improvement in welfare) by encouraging exit of less productive firms and freeing up skilled labor to be used for R&D by high-type incumbents. Subsidies to the R&D of incumbents do not achieve this objective because they encourage the survival and expansion of low-type firms. (JEL D21, D24, H25, L52, O31, O34)

Frontier Production Function

The total factor productivity became an interesting concept in the measurement of productivity growth. Productivity is a ratio of output to input. The most common measurement of productivity is single factor productivity or partial productivity such as of land, labor, or capital.A total (factor) productivity is a productivity of all factors of production where the factors are aggregated. In cross-sectional studies this total productivity is a ratio of actual to potential output where the potential output is estimated from ther frontier production function. One of the methods to estimate this frontier function is by using linear programming technique.The total productivity does not always coincide with a single factor productivity of land (yield), that in the study area the larger farms tend to have higher total productivity than yield
