Tornqvist-Theil indexes of outputs and inputs are constructed. These data are used to construct indexes of productivity growth over the postwar period. The productivity indexes can be derived from a flexible multioutput-multifactor representation of the structure of production constrained to constant returns to scale. Total factor productivity grew at an average annual rate of 1.75%, compared w...

Adiqa Kiani ABSTRACT Using Tornqvist-Theil Index, average annual total factor productivity (TFP) growth rate of all major and minor crops in NWFP is found to be 1.5 percent, during 1969-2004. The marginal internal rate of return to provincial investment in research for TFP growth was in the range of 34 to 42 percent over the same period. Almon distributed lag model has also been estimated, usin...

A divisia index of total factor productivity (TFP) growth is calculated for each of 16 regulated local telephone companies operating in Tennessee over the years 1989 through 1993. Year over year changes in TFP, in Tornqvist form, yield a growth in total factor productivity estimate for each company. These growth rates, however, contain the effects of both scale and technical change. Using the m...

using productivity index for investigating a firms’ performance makes it possible to evaluate efficiency of the production system and cost at the same time. in this study the total factor productivity (tfp) of several sugar cane varieties in imam khomeini cultivation and processing center in khuzestan province is compared. two hundred and forty eight farms are categorized on the basis of variet...

the present study surveys the effect of bank-specific, industry-specific and macroeconomic conditions on bank performance to examine the structure-conduct-performance (scp) hypothesis in iranian banking industry. to achieve this goal, we drew upon the panel data technique to analyze the data of eleven public and private iranian banks during 2001-2006. firstly, productivity was calculated by usi...

Abstract The experience of developed countries shows that airport managers seek to increase their profitability, while regulatory agencies aim guarantee quality, investments and fair charges. This study presents an application the Tornqvist Index markup pricing method find market price opportunity for airfares one specific objectives is present a methodology comparing financial results airports...

The study estimated the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth in Sri Lankan food crop sector from 1990- 2017 using Tornqvist-Theil index assuming translog production technology and a competitive market. TFP of paddy, maize, potato, big onion, chilli soybean has increased after 2000. highest is recorded for maize 2011 -2015 that contributed to about 68% growth. costless advances applied technol...
