Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human capital theory established by Becker predicts that wages of young workers are higher than their productivity, while their productivity will become higher after training completes. Lazear insists that deferred payment results lower wages for young workers and higher wages for elderly workers than their productivity. This research joins standard production function and standard Mincer style wage function. The data analysis results that wages are higher than productivity for young workers, then the productivity exceeds wages, and again, wage exceeds productivity for elderly workers.
