the aim of the paper is to survey factors productivity in small & medium scale manufactories located in toos industrial town. in order to achieve this purpose, production functions of different industrial groups are estimated on the base of cross-section data in 2005. then elasticity of factors production, average productivity, marginal productivity, labor intensive and capital intensive are de...

The relationship between physical capital. human capital and the distribution of turnings is examined empirically using cross-sectional microdata within SklSAs. Comprtrarive advantage in workers and a scale-of-resources effect among firms is predicted to lead to a rel~ti~)n~hip between capital and earnings. The level of earnings is found to be positively related to capital intensity and nrgntiv...

With organizations entering knowledge-based economy, knowledge and as a result intangible assets is considered as one of the most important competitive advantages in organizations. Nowadays using intangible assets has a very significant influence on organizations’ success and survival social and intellectual capitals are among the most important intangible assets. Social capital enjoys being au...

Clean hydrogen is the major energy carrier for power production. The conversion of CO to CO2 and zero emission during hydrogen energy production causes high capital cost. It is a matter of prestige to optimize the process in order to make zero emission and cost effective production of clean hydrogen energy and electric power. In this era, coal gasification is th...

This paper derives the value and the risk of aggregate human capital in a dynamic equilibrium production model with Duffie-Epstein preferences. In this setting the expected return of a risky asset is a function of the asset’s covariance with consumption growth and a weighted average of the asset’s covariance with aggregate wage growth and aggregate financial returns. A calibration of the model ...

This paper is a quantitatively-oriented theoretical study into the interaction between housing prices, aggregate production, and household behaviour over a lifetime. We develop an overlapping generations model of a production economy in which land and capital are combined into residential and commercial structures. We …nd that, in the economy where land is more important for structures, the hou...

This paper considers an economic production quantity (EPQ) model with imperfect production processes, in which the setup cost and process quality are functions of capital expenditure. The mathematical model is derived to investigate the effects of an imperfect production process on the optimal production cycle time when capital investment strategies in setup reduction and process quality improv...

In many countries, payment services in banking have shifted from paper-based giro and check payments to electronic giro and debit card payments. This paper analyses the effect of this change in payment technology within a multiple-output framework using Norwegian banklevel panel data. The dual approach with four variable inputs is applied, and the general model includes random coefficients to c...
