The resulting difference in labor productivity is called a "labor efficiency difference." A multiple regression analysis reveals a significant relationship between high capital intensity levels and high levels of labor produc- tivity. A Cobb-Douglas production function is then used to calculate labor efficiency differences between Mexican, Puerto Rican, and United States industries. It is generally found that labor efficiencies in Puerto Rico are higher than those of Mexico because many Puerto Rican industries produce for United States markets. Labor efficiency differences between united States and Mexican industries are attributed to worker and managerial ability and economies of scale. Puerto Rican-United States efficiency differences are mainly economies of mentioned ea produce for are mainly due to worker and managerial ability with economies of scale being a smaller influence since, as mentioned earlier, a number of Puerto Rican industries produce for United States markets.

HYPOTHESIS AND INTRODUCTION This analysis is concerned with the calculation and comparison of international labor productivity differ- entials at various levels of capital intensity. The countries involved are the United States, Mexico, and Puerto Rico with the United States serving as the standard of comparison. The hypothesis is that even if industries in the less developed areas were equipped with the capital- labor ratio of equivalent manufacturing industries in the United States, labor productivity levels for the former countries would not approach labor productivity levels of the latter country for the greater majority of industries. It will be shown that the hypothesis holds true regardless of the productivity of capital in the less developed countries and the highest plausible values assigned to the output elasticity coefficient of capital. A related suppo- sition is that scale of plant and integrated industrial development with commensurate linkage effects increase the 41 i : productivit efficiency General Sta To C: sectional er from the max are employec certain Yea! The calculat (1) (2) 2 productivity of capital and hence labor productivity and efficiency under given levels of capital intensity. General Statement Concerning Methodology To test the previously mentioned hypothesis, cross sectional empirical data for output, labor, and capital from the manufacturing sectors of the respective countries are employed. Productivity comparisons are made for certain years as well as averages of some selected years. The calculations seek to answer these questions. (1) To what extent do capital intensity differ- ences lead to labor productivity differences? (2) Are labor productivity differences less for industries of intensive capital than for industries of intensive labor? After establishing that relative productivity differences in lesser developed areas are greater than their relative capital intensity differences, an explanation must be made as to the probable cause or causes of the further differ- ences. Different industries in the same country are com- pared as well as the same industry for different years. Differences among industries in the less developed areas are also compared within the context of their historical economic development patterns. The advanced I worker eff itself.

Hirschman states that productivity differences are less for capital intensive industries than for labor intensive industries. Accordingly, capital intensive investment projects promote operations on a large scale, set up an atmOSphere where labor becomes more efficient, coordinate difficult human tasks, and force management to be more efficient thereby shortening and improving the decision making process of the managerial hierarchy.1 If the hypotheses and questions are to be answered successfully, productivity adjustments must be made for capital intensity variations per worker. These adjustments require knowledge about production functions in the countries under investigation. Otherwise certain assumptions must be made about the characteristics of these functions. The latter approach is used here since there is virtually no knowledge of production functions for each individual industry under investigation. However, previous empirical studies have provided production 1Albert Hirschman, The Strategylgf Economic Develop- ment (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1959), pp. 146-50. functions wl One such fur The usual pri regionally c duction funo assunption 6 try in all t ally not be data and the CONStants he the emPirica TWO '2 regression f1 calculate rel 4 functions which could be applied to all the industries. One such function is the Cobb-Douglas production function. The usual procedure when productivity comparisons are made, regionally or internationally, is to assume a single pro- duction function for all industries again with the further assumption that the exponents are the same for each indus- try in all the countries. The constants need or will usu- ally not be the same if the function is fitted to empirical data and the equation solved for the constant. Nor do the constants have to be the same when they are determined from the empirical data. Two techniques are employed in this analysis. The first uses arithmetic and logarithmic multiple linear regression functions while the second uses a ratio of Cobb- Douglas production functions. The regression equations calculate relative labor productivities for Mexico and Puerto Rico under appropriate levels of capital intensity. Briefly, the regression planes are used to compute the following: (1) quantitative and directional influence of changes in the capital-labor ratio upon the ratio of output to labor; (2) to test the Hirschman hypothesis; and (3) to compute the overall relative productivity of Mexican and Pnerto Rican industries operating with the aggregate United States capital-labor ratio for the chosen industries.

Relative capital and labor productivities are computed for Mexican and Puerto Rican industries along with relative capital-labor ratios for each industry. Following this, per worker labor productivities for Mexican and Puerto Rican industries operating with the observed United States capital-labor ratio in each similar industry are worked out under varying values of capital elasticity of substitution coefficients. This analysis is carried on under constant returns to scale assumptions for all indus- tries and increasing returns for some selected Mexican and Puerto Rican industries. A detailed explanation of the above calculations is presented in Chapter II. The data and calculations are given.in the Appendix.

This investigation does not construct input-output tables nor attempt a measurement of the rate of technological change. Also, an optimum capital-labor ratio is not quantified for Mexican and Puerto Rican indus- tries. This would require the specification of optimum techniques and determination of a most favorable economic growth rate. In turn, demand elasticities for final products would have to be ascertained. These calculations are not regarded as unimportant. However, for purposes of manageability, computations are made strictly with refer- ence to labor productivity differences at varying levels of capital intensity. The remainder of the present chapter reviews and evaluates prior studies of international labor productivity comparisons which give credence to the current analysis. The characteristics and application of the Cobb-Douglas production function in empirical testing is then discussed as well as methodological problems involved for any study using empirical production functions.

SELECTED SURVEY OF INTERNATIONAL LABOR PRODUCTIVITY STUDIES Earlier international labor productivity studies have raised and explored some very important questions. This writer feels however, that some methodological mis- takes were made, that some studies were analytically incomplete, and that some investigations could have probed more deeply into the topics raised by the existence of international labor productivity differentials. Rather than attempt a complete review of the vast literature, stress is given to studies which are especially pertinent to the present investigation. Empirical Igggguggughg Hirschman Hypothesis Carlos Diaz Alejandro has compared labor produc- tivity differences between the United States and Argentina to test the existence and magnitude of the Hirschman hypothesis.2 A cross section of sixty-three manufacturing industries was chosen in both countries on the basis of output comparability. The compared years were an average of data for 1953 and 1957 in Argentina and the single year 2Carlos Diaz Alejandro, "Industrialization and Labor Productivity Differentials," Review.gf Economics and Statistics, Vol. 47 (May, 1965), pp. 207-14. 1 1958 for th differences the former < attributed 1 absolute si: size of firm were represe was used to The terms p, relative pro labor intens was“ and sa workers to t went; the ab: "31an is th. establishmem establishmEnt ° e helm: 8 1958 for the United States. Relative labor productivity differences between the United States and Argentina with the former country as the comparative yardstick were attributed to (l) labor intensity in Argentina; (2) the absolute size of firms in Argentina; and (3) the relative size of firms in Argentina. These productivity differences were represented by the following regression equation which was used to test the Hirschman hypothesis: P-a-bL+cS-gE. The terms P, L, S, and E represent in turn, the average relative productivity per worker in Argentina; the absolute labor intensity in Argentina denoted by the portion of wages and salaries for production and non-production workers to total dollar value added for each establish- ment; the absolute size of Argentine establishments where "size" is the average number of production workers per establishment; and E is the relative size of Argentine establishments to comparable establishments in the United States. The results of the regression equation are given below: P - 67.77 - 0.935(L) + 0.035(8) - 0.018(3).

The coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.523 and not sig- nificantly high. Except for the petroleum refining indus- try, relative labor productivities in all Argentinian industries were lower than the equivalent industry in the United States. On the basis of overall results, the author accepted the Hirschman hypothesis with some reservations. He quali- fied his acceptance by showing that some industries in Argentina with a comparative advantage in international trade also possess a high degree of labor intensity. Other forces which could affect the Hirschman hypothesis but lying outside its analytical scope were cited such as (1) import substitution industries in lesser developed areas having highly capital intensive techniques and therefore smaller labor productivity differences when com- pared to similar industries in developed countries; (2) tariff protection for certain industries in under- developed areas favoring capital intensive techniques placing those industries in a more favorable price position than competitors in developed countries; and (3) the narrowing of technical factor substitution possibilities as industries become more capital intensive.

If pro- duction functions were known or assumed, factors which lay outside the range of Alejandro's analysis could have been given a meaningful interpretation. Alejandro's regression equation could scarcely be called a production function. Approximately 48 per cent of the output variations were unexplained by capital intensity variations and these could be given no meaningful analysis. The regression equation also suffers from poor and inconsistent definitions for the independent variables. In the first place, relative labor productivities for Argentinian manufacturing industries are not explained by labor intensity in Argentina alone. Alejandro did use relative size as a variable and the results would have been better if relative labor intensity was also used. Secondly, Alejandro's definition of the size variable is not able to produce a high positive relationship with capital intensity even if such a relationship did exist. A high average number of workers per establishment or industry might very well indicate a high degree of labor intensity. Consistency would require that the size factor be used as an inverse index of capital intensity along with the labor intensity variable given the author's definitions.

Therefore, the greater would be the level of labor intensity and the lower the capital-labor ratio. But the greater the number of production workers, the greater is the size variable (S) and consequently, the greater is the level of capital intensity. The relative size variable (E) is also correspondingly affected. This could account for the low regression coefficients obtained by Alejandro for the absolute and relative size variables. Alejandro did state that capital-labor ratios would have been better indicators of capital intensity but that data on capital was unavailable for Argentina. A subsequent article by Edmar Bacha included capital data in a comparison of relative labor productivities between Mexico for 1961 and the United States for 1958.3 In addition, Bacha calculated a correlation coefficient between the size of firms and capital intensity, "size" being defined as the number of establishments divided by the 3Edmar Bacha, "A Comparison of Industrial Produc- tivity Between Mexico and the United States," §;_Trimestre Economico, Vol. 33 (October-December, 1966), pp. 657-73. number of to an emp were sele bility of computati: amatmt of K/L stood United Sta of comparig "u" and "m" the order 8 the capital.

The Hirschman hypothesis was also put to an empirical test. Forty-five manufacturing industries were selected from both countries on the basis of compara- bility of outputs and availability of statistics. For the computations, the symbols K, L, and VA represented the amount of fixed capital, labor, and value of output. Thus, K/L stood for the level of capital per unit of labor. The United States, as in Alejandro‘s article, was the standard of comparison (i.e., United States - 100). The subscripts "u" and "m" specified the United States and Mexico, each in the order given. Bacha then computed the absolute size of the capital-labor ratio for each industry in each country. From this, the relative capital-labor ratio for Mexican industries to comparable United States industries was Obtained. Next, Bacha derived the aggregate relative capital-labor ratio for Mexican industries, the numerical result of which is given below: (1) Km Lm - Ku Lu 0°36° The absolute value of output per unit of labor for each industry in both countries and the relative value of output per unit of labor for Mexico in each of the forty-five industries was calculated.

VAu/Lu Bacha concluded from the above that overall productivity for United States industries was approximately four times greater than Mexican industries (1.0/0.27). Capital intensity for United States industries was computed as being nearly three times greater than Mexican industries (1.0/0.36). Bacha attributed 75 per cent of the overall productivity difference to the difference in capital intensity via the succeeding manner: (3) o,2711,o - 0 75 0.36/1.0 ° ° Bacha proceeded to remove the effects of capital intensity differences upon output for each industry. The resulting figure was termed an "efficiency difference" (DP?) between United States and Mexican industries. This 0?? was to point to the presence of other factors influ- encing output besides capital intensity. Bacha's method for removing capital intensity differentials is shown below: VAu/Lu ' Ku/Lu ° Bacha interpreted a DPP of greater than 100.0 as the United States using a "disproportionate" amount of capital to achieve a greater per worker product than average 1a Alternativ factors in advantage u of United 5 tries.

Alternatively, a DPP of less than 100.0 showed that other factors in the United States than the capital intensity advantage were responsible for the productivity advantage of United States industries over similar Mexican indus- tries. Out of forty-five industries, thirty had a DPP of less than 100.0. The conclusion was that the majority of the United States industries under examination possessed productivity advantages over the same Mexican industries which were not attributed to capital intensity. The Hirschman hypothesis was empirically tested by Bacha to further determine the effects of capital intensity on relative labor output of manufacturing industries in Mexico. The regression equation, given below, depicts the capital intensity and productivity relationship: Km (5) log VAm Lm E VAu/Lu - log a + b log The regression coefficient (b) had a positive value of 0.219 and the coefficient of correlation was 0.319, neither one of which was significantly high. Bacha found that the Hirschman hypothesis generally held but in a very weak fashion. A positive value of the regression coefficient but a low absolute value of 0.219 would indicate this to be correct.

Apart from this, Bacha believed that the Hirschman hypothesis would have to be accepted with caution because (1) his data covered only a one year period; (2) the business cycle may have influenced his data; and (3) differences in labor productivity may have been due more to technology than to capital intensity since the possibilities of factor substitution narrow as capital intensity levels rise. Bacha's study is an improvement over the analysis conducted by Alejandro. Bacha made an attempt to measure the contribution of capital to productivity and isolate an efficiency difference. Alejandro's prime concern was to test the Hirschman hypothesis. Bacha's linear logarithmic equation also provided a better fit to the data than Alejandro's (the correlation coefficients were 0.319 and 0.229 respectively) although goodness of fit could scarcely qualify a regression equation as a true production function for the data under consideration. Previously stated, the measurement of the contri- bution of capital intensity and the correction of output for differences in capital intensity by Bacha thereby iso- lating an efficiency difference, represented an important contribut Once such economic capital 1 Bacha's a his defin: the same a ratio and relative c to conside 75 P873 can MEXiCan an attributed l6 contribution to international labor productivity studies. Once such procedures are accomplished, the feasibility of economic development through maximum or minimum levels of capital intensity becomes more apparent. Nevertheless, Bacha's adjustment method for the efficiency difference and his definition of that term is unsatisfactory. Bacha used the same adjustment to obtain a productivity of capital ratio and to remove the effects of capital intensity on relative output. To explain Bacha's error, it is necessary to consider his method for arriving at the conclusion that 75 per cent of the overall productivity difference between Mexican and United States manufacturing industries was attributed to the difference in aggregate capital intensity. His calculation technique is as follows: (63 (7) (8) l7 (6) Wm Lm _ VAu/Lu 0'27 (7) 3.3M- Ku/Lu 0'36 (8) VAmZLm VAuZLu - KmZLm Lm Ku/Lu (88) VAmZ KuZLu _ VAu/Lu . Km/Lm (8b) VAm . §g_.

However, (8d) is only an aggregate relative productivity of capital ratio for Mexican indus- tries compared with identical United States industries. Moreover, Bacha also used the above procedure to adjust for capital intensity differences calling the result a "pure efficiency difference". In brief, the same computational procedure was used to obtain capital productivity and to remove the influences of differences in capital-labor ratios on relative output. In both cases the result was a relative productivity of capital ratio.

Relative labor productivities between Mexican and United States industries were determined on the basis of capital intensity in Mexico alone. The choice of 1958 as a year to gather United States data could not be considered a sound choice since a recession was occurring in that country during 1958 which could have distorted capital-labor ratios as well as other data under consideration. If years other than 1958 were selected along with the latter year, then the empirical data could have better reflected true capital usages and labor productivities.4 The previously reviewed articles provide a start but lack analytical depth. The Cobb-Douglas function enables this writer to examine questions and reach conclusions which could not have been explored or drawn by Alejandro or Bacha. The most obvious advantage possessed by the Cobb- Douglas production function over the other regression equations is that the exponents can'be expressed as 4Einar Hardin and W.

In addition, the relative economic efficiency of Mexican industries is not described by a relative produc- tivity of capital ratio. The concept of economic efficiency is elusive and deserves careful consideration before any conclusions can be reached about investment priorities for lesser developed areas.

Chapter II fully elaborates the notion of economic efficiency used in this analysis. As stated earlier, the application of a Cobb-Douglas production function to empirical data provides advantages over the previously mentioned studies. However, the mathe- matical properties and the assumptions underlying the Cobb- Douglas function are subject to criticism on their own score. The remainder of this chapter briefly reviews the mathematical properties and assumptions of the Cobb-Douglas function and some relevant studies which have employed production functions of the CObb-Douglas type for inter- national labor productivity comparisons. The studies to be cited have somewhat different methodologies and purposes from the current study but they will serve to uphold the methodological validity used in this investigation. The CObb-Douglas production function has the mathe- matical property of being linear homogeneous of degree one. This property along with constant substitution elasticities which add to unity cause objections toward the Cobb-Douglas function for empirical testing. To begin with, the 1: 3C is th de Pr: tha tha °0u1 21 function is based upon the assumption of perfect compe- tition in resource markets. Moreover, the assumption of linear homogeneity of degree one requires that all firms are operating on the minimum point of their long run aver- age cost curves which requires in turn, that the conditions for long run competitive equilibrium have been met. Markets are far from perfect nationally or internationally and since the Cobb-Douglas function was developed by obser- vation of United States data, its usage on an international scale is complicated by different accounting systems which may record capital and labor inputs differently. Defi- nitions of the market place may also be different for the lesser developed areas. In the United States, a trans- action is recorded in the GNP accounts if the transaction is productive and if there is a money flow associated with the transaction. Such may not be the case with many lesser developed areas. What is considered productive in the United States may not be considered productive elsewhere. Further, many lesser developed areas typically have many productive transactions with no commensurate money flows, that is, at least a higher proportion of such transactions than the United States. ‘More importantly, market imper- fections and structural disequilibria of various sorts could hamper output elasticities or substitution for asst tour Crea zati that 81th cana faCt wher tiviI Pp.¢ 22 elasticities for the lesser developed areas to a greater extent than the United States. Narrow domestic and export markets for the former countries leading to low sales volume could also distort capital-labor substitution. Empirical Production Functions and International Labor Productivity Comparisons An article by E. J. Heath compared labor produc- tivity for Great Britain and Canada for 1948.5 A Cobb- Douglas production function was fitted to empirical data for output, capital, and labor. The same exponents were assumed for similar industries between the different countries. Relative horsepower per unit of output with Great Britain as 100.0 was used as the level of mechani- zation or capital intensity. The horsepower data suggested that its use per unit of labor was higher in Great Britain although output per unit of horsepower was higher in Canada. The Cobb-Douglas function was employed for a three factor case and written as: (11) x - pf H’M" where X is output; L is relative labor; H is relative horsepower; M.is relative fuel usage; and "p" is the 5E.

Heath, "British-Canadian Industrial Produc- tivity," Economic Journal, Vol. 67 (December, 1957), PP. 665-91. prod abov elas prod than that equa was I tive supe1 7 per for h Such °rgan error made ‘ d8 ten writtg SUbStj 23 productivity ratio. Using a logarithmic form of (11) above, a three variable regression was calculated and the numerical values of "p" andor,~B , andd' , the output elasticities, were calculated. It was found that labor productivity in Canada was 7 per cent higher in Canada than Great Britain. Using a Cobb-Douglas function proper, that is by excluding'Md and reducing the regression equation to a two factor case, labor productivity in Canada was 55 per cent higher in Canada than Great Britain. Rela- tive fuel usage then revealed that fuel inputs were superior in Great Britain than Canada. The remaining 7 per cent difference in labor productivity not accounted for by differences in capital intensity was attributed to such factors as quality differences in horsepower, business organization, labor and managerial effort, and statistical errors in Heath's measurement technique. No attempt was made by Heath to adjust productivity differences to determine relative labor efficiencies. Some years later, several economists, in a jointly written article, advanced the CES (Constant Elasticity of substitution) production function as an alternative to the t6 wi wh an rel 0f be tr: (b; 24 Cobb-Douglas production function.6 Using nineteen countries including the United States and Mexico, and twenty-four industries within each country, the authors tested the relationship of value added upon wage rates with the regression equation: (12) log % - log a +‘b log W + e where V is value added in units of $1,000 per man year; L is labor input in man years for units of $1,000 per value added; W is the average wage rate in $1,000 units per man year or total labor cost divided by the number of workers; and "e" a random error term. The coefficient of determination for the above regression equation was very high showing that 85 per cent of the variations in average labor productivity (¥5 could be associated with variations in the average wage rate (W). A "t" test revealed that for all twenty-four indus- tries in the nineteen countries, the regression coefficient (b) was significantly different from zero at the 90 per cent level of confidence. In fourteen of twenty-four cases, the 6Kenneth Arrow, Hollis Chenery, Bagicha Minhas, and Robert Solow, "Capital-Labor Substitution and Economic Efficiency," Review‘gg Economics‘gng Statistics, Vol. 43 (May, 1961), pp. 225-47. cc ca di th C0 C8? dew was PTO “he: was Cons buti each whie] Cobb. nelty 25 "b" value was significantly different from unity at the 90 per cent confidence interval which led the authors to reject the hypothesis that the regression coefficient (b) could be called the elasticity of substitution between capital and labor. If the "b" value was not significantly different from unity at the specified confidence level, this could have generalized the case for application of a Cobb-Douglas production function for empirical tests con- cerning output, labor, and capital. Rejection of the hypothesis led Arrow, et al. to develop an alternative to the Cobb-Douglas function. It was called the CES (Constant Elasticity of Substitution) production function which was written as: I -f’ .;P __ (13) V: V[d|< +(\-d)L_ j‘P where V was value added per man year; K.was capital; and L was man years of labor time. The terms V , (5 , and-P were constants standing for an efficiency parameter, a distri- bution parameter, and a substitution parameter each to each. The term —1— was the elasticity of substitution 1+6 which was also a constant. The CES function possesses similar properties to the Cdbb-Douglas production function such as (1) linear homoge- neity of degree one; (2) positive marginal products subject Cc re as on Co Co' re: cm fur gre ela fUn Pro. eXci Varj Varj 1111 26 to diminishing returns; (3) pure competition in factor markets; and (4) constant elasticities of substitution. With constant substitution elasticities both the CES and Cobb-Douglas production functions have no uneconomic regions. Graphically, uneconomic regions may be portrayed as isoquants bending backward upon themselves or as stages one and two in a three stage output curve. The CES and Cobb-Douglas functions have no such regions.7 However, the Cobb-Douglas and CES production functions differ in one respect. While the Cobb-Douglas is constrained to a constant elasticity of substitution of unity, the CES function could have constant substitution elasticities greater than zero and up to unity. In the limit, where the elasticity of substitution is unity, the CES production function reduces to the Cobb-Douglas form.8 Part of the article was devoted to testing the CES production function parameters for efficiency variations due exclusively to capital intensity variations, efficiency variations attributable solely to changes in labor, and variations in efficiency which affect both labor and 7C.

The countries used were the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Japan and India. Industries employed for the tests were spinning and weaving, basic chemicals, iron and steel, and metal products. Capital estimates, obtained from balance sheets, were defined as net fixed assets plus land plus cash plus working capital. An estimate of the rate of return on capital was also required and this was defined as gross profit from operations less depreciation. The coefficient of variation was calculated for each parameter. Con- clusions Pointed to a constant distribution parameter (6) meaning that any changes in productive efficiency (Y) would affect capital and labor in amounts proportionate to the value of the respective exponents for the capital and labor 9 The distributive shares would thus remain inputs. constant and increases in output would be shared in the ratio of the respective exponents. The Cobb-Douglas production function thus has the property of neutral efficiency variations between capital and labor inputs. In brief, technical change is neutral in the CES (as well as the Cobb-Douglas) function meaning that the output elasticities and the distributive shares of capital and 9Arrow, et al., 22. cit., pp. 235-36. tc su Ja me: “he to Sub 901- aUtl Won 28 labor in the national income are unaltered as technological change occurs. The CES production function was then used to calcu- late relative productive efficiencies for sample manu- facturing industries of Japan to United States industries. The first step was to estimate distribution parameters and the elasticity of substitution for each industry with the latter defined as: (K/L)u wu/ru where K/L is the capital-labor ratio or capital intensity; "w" is the real wage rate; "r" is the real rate of return to capital;(7'is an exponent power of the elasticity of substitution; and the subscripts "j" and "u" represent Japan and the United States respectively. The weighted median elasticity of substitution was found to be 0.93 whereas a previous analysis in the same article showed it to be 0.87. The higher former value for the elasticity of substitution (0.93) was attributed to the omission of working capital from the capital intensity index. The authors stated that the elasticity of substitution between working capital and labor is much less than unity and since manufacturing industries were believed to possess large amounts of working capital relative to fixed capital, the elast unity tal i lower real ‘ ductii in Jar States betWee ratio. It 11 29 elasticity of substitution would be significantly less than unity for those industries. The inclusion of working capi- tal in the current calculations thus accounted for the lower value of 0.87 compared to 0.93.10 Variations in the efficiency parameter (Y) and the real wage rate were studied to establish relative pro- ductive efficiencies of selected manufacturing industries in Japan compared with similar industries in the United States. The authors also looked for a positive correlation between the efficiency parameter (V) and the capital-labor ratio. Having estimated the distribution parameters (6) and the elasticities of substitution 1:175 for the various \/ industries, the authors determined iso-product curves (17) from commodity prices to generalize their concept of rela- tive productive efficiency by using Figure 1.11 1 oIbid., pp. 236-39. llIbid. 30 if): C B | GEL. __ I D I I I | A (95 __ _ _| _ I | I l .
