Book Synopsis The Relationship Between R&D and Productivity Growth in Canada and Other Major Industrialized Countries by : Pierre A. Mohnen
Download or read book The Relationship Between R&D and Productivity Growth in Canada and Other Major Industrialized Countries written by Pierre A. Mohnen and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study clarifies the conceptual link between R & D and productivity growth and surveys the empirical literature on this topic. The analysis addresses three specific questions: What are the social and private rates of return on R & D? Are they sensitive to the way they are estimated? And do the results differ across industries and countries? It presents the results of a new empirical study of R & D conducted abroad and how that R & D spills over into the Canadian manufacturing sector and affects productivity. Finally it presents a discussion of policy recommendations in the light of the evidence gathered concerning the role of R & D in productivity growth.
Book Synopsis Canada's Productivity Performance by : Ponugoti Someshwar Rao
Download or read book Canada's Productivity Performance written by Ponugoti Someshwar Rao and published by Canada Communications Group. This book was released on 1992 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study discuses issues and problems associated with international productivity and real income comparisons. It reviews the trends in Canada's productivity and the trends in Canada's labour productivity and real income performance, relative to other G-7 countries with special reference to the United States. It also outlines the theoretical underpinnings of an econometric model to explain productivity growth and gives a brief summary of regression results for Canada, the United States, Japan, and West Germany. It analyzes the causes of the slowdown in Canadian productivity since 1973 using the estimated equations. In addition, it examines the reasons for Canada's poor manufacturing productivity performance relative to that of the major economies and summarizes the findings of the study.
Book Synopsis Innovation, Survival and Performance of Canadian Manufacturing Plants by : John R. Baldwin
Download or read book Innovation, Survival and Performance of Canadian Manufacturing Plants written by John R. Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the determinants of innovation and the role of innovation in productivity growth, shifts in market share and survival in the Canadian manufacturing sector. The paper presents a model that examines the effect of innovation on plant performance and plant survival. It uses a unique data set that allows us to develop a detailed time profile of plant performance both before and after the introduction of an innovation. We find strong evidence that labour productivity growth is faster and survival rates higher after the introduction of a process innovation. Process innovation is also linked to gain in market shares through its effect on productivity growth. In contrast, product innovation appears to have little impact on plant performance and a negative impact on plant survival. We find that R&D, technology competencies and past innovation are linked to higher rates of innovation. Previous nnovation experience is linked to innovation but previous growth is not.

Book Synopsis Machinery and Equipment Investment and Growth by : Tahir A. Abdi
Download or read book Machinery and Equipment Investment and Growth written by Tahir A. Abdi and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New growth theory indicates three potential influences on output & productivity growth: investment in human capital, research & development, and investment in machinery & equipment (M & E). Much of the economic literature focusses on the first two influences as sources of growth, and few efforts have been made to estimate the impact of M & E investment. This paper presents empirical models that attempt to fill this gap. Using panel data on 20 Canadian manufacturing industries (1961-1997) and time series data (1961-2000) for the entire Canadian manufacturing sector, the paper estimates the impact of M & E and non-M & E investment on output levels.
Book Synopsis Canadian Manufacturing Volume I by : Uri Zohar
Download or read book Canadian Manufacturing Volume I written by Uri Zohar and published by Lorimer. This book was released on 1982 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the back cover: VOLUME 1 outlines the study's methodology and considers the explanations that have been proposed for Canada's productivity showdown. The study's data suggest that the decline is attributable more to outdated caiptal equipment than to the commonly cited "slump" in labour productivity. Author Uri Zohar applies the study's findings to the problem of industrial strategy: since the performance of different industries is highly disparate and subject to rapid change, macroeconomic policy is unlikely to be beneficial to all of them at once. A more specialized policy is needed one that backs "winner" industries identified on the basis of productivity measurements and national choices about social and economic development. VOLUME 2 provides the most extensive time-series studies done to date on manufacturing industries. Performance in each of the nineteen industry groups is studied using four production functions that quantify various factors contributing to productivity, and each industry group is compared against a benchmark average for the entire sector.
Book Synopsis Innovation, Survival and Performance of Canadian Manufacturing Plants by : John Russel Baldwin

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the determinants of innovation and the role of innovation in productivity growth, shifts in market share, and survival in the Canadian manufacturing sector. It presents a model that examines the effect of innovation on plant performance and plant survival, using a unique data set that allows development of a detailed time profile of plant performance both before & after the introduction of an innovation. Both process innovation and product innovation are considered along with their linkages to labour productivity, survival rates, plant performance, and gain in market share. Relationships between innovation and research & development, technology competencies, and previous innovation & growth are also explored.
Book Synopsis The Effect of Changing Technology Use on Plant Performance in the Canadian Manufacturing Sector by : John R. Baldwin
Download or read book The Effect of Changing Technology Use on Plant Performance in the Canadian Manufacturing Sector written by John R. Baldwin and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates how changes in technology use of individual plants in the Canadian manufacturing sector are related to two measures of performance - productivity growth and market-share growth. The paper describes whether plants are adopting new advanced technologies and if they do so, whether they enjoy superior performance in these two areas. It makes use of panel data on advanced technology use from Statistics Canada's 1993 and 1998 advanced manufacturing surveys that are combined with longitudinal data on plant performance. Growth in technology use during the period is significantly associated with relative productivity growth. In turn, growth in relative labour productivity is translated into growth in market share. Plants that improve their production efficiencies or produce higher quality products are able to realize gains in market share. Growth in the use of advanced technologies also had a positive impact on a plant's growth in market share, probably through its impact on product innovation. The market rewards those businesses that managed to improve their efficiency or the quality of their product and concomitantly their labour productivity with an increase in market share. The paper also investigates other plant characteristics that are related to productivity and marketshare growth. R&D is related to market-share growth. The use of information and communications networks for ordering goods and services is associated with higher productivity growth.

Book Synopsis The Role of Scale in Canada/U.S. Productivity Differences in the Manufacturing Sector, 1970-1979 by : John Russel Baldwin
Download or read book The Role of Scale in Canada/U.S. Productivity Differences in the Manufacturing Sector, 1970-1979 written by John Russel Baldwin and published by Toronto; Ottawa : University of Toronto Press; Supply and Services Canada 1986.. This book was released on 1986 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Understanding the reason for the productivity differences between Canadian and U.S. manufacturing industries is important if a sound industrial strategy is to be followed in the next decade. This is particularly the case if Canada implements its policy of closer economic ties with the United States - either in the form of the previous Trudeau Administration's sectoral free trade approach or the present Mulroney Administration's attempt to enhance access of Canadian goods to the United States."--
