Measurement and Sources of Productivity Growth under Imperfect Competition

使用净产出的国家的相对增长表现将使比较免于许多统计机构为考虑资本货物质量变化而进行的有争议和不同的调整。因此，澳大利亚将更好地了解其在增长方面的相对表现，从而更好地做出明智的政策决定。此外，生产率增长是否主要由技术进步或规模回报驱动，以及垄断加价的规模，对我们如何看待一个经济体的表现及其未来增长潜力具有很大影响。

The relative growth performance of countries using net output will free comparisons from the contentious and differing adjustments made by many statistical agencies in an attempt to take account of quality change in capital goods. Thus, Australia will have a better understanding of its relative performance in terms of growth, and thus be better positioned to make informed policy decisions. In addition, whether productivity growth is mainly driven by technical progress or returns to scale, and the size of monopolistic markups, has a large bearing on how we view the performance of an economy and its potential for future growth.
