Research Abstract |
Many economists have considered that the quantity of capital and labor, that is, inputs, determines the quantity of production of a country measured by the GDP. We usually call the relation between the quantity of production and the quantities of inputs a production function. Many researches have analyzed production functions statistically. However, the theoretical foundation of production functions is rather insufficient. This research project showed some theoretical difficulty in assuming a unique production function, related with the aggregate problem of capital.
