Identifying changes in value added

Value added decomposition

◮ Parametric and non-parametric estimation of production frontiers ◮ A recent decomposition proposed by Diewert and Fox (2017)

  • Free Disposal Hull (FDH) and index number theory
  • Rule out technical regress
  • A non-parametric approach involving only observable data

Identifying changes in value added

Value added decomposition

◮ Value added decomposition for Australian market sector industries

  • 12 selected industries and 16 market sector industries
  • Decomposition at an aggregate level and an industry level
  • Sectoral explanations for Australian TFP change

◮ Simple enough to be implemented by national statistical offices

  • Data cubes from Australian Bureau of Statistics
  • R package: dfvad

Methodology

Defining the optimal output value

◮ Cost constrained value added function

Rt(p, w, x) = max

y,z {p · y : (y, z) ∈ St; w · z w · x} ◮ Unit cost function

ct(w, p) = min

Methodology

Explanatory factors

◮ Net output price indexes

α(pt−1, pt, w, x, s) = Rs(pt, w, x) Rs(pt−1, w, x)

◮ Input quantity indexes

β(xt−1, xt, w) = w · xt w · xt−1

Methodology

Explanatory factors

◮ Input mix indexes

γ(wt−1, wt, p, x, s) = Rs(p, wt, x) Rs(p, wt−1, x)

◮ Returns to scale

δ(xt−1, xt, p, w, s) = Rs(p, w, xt)/Rs(p, w, xt−1) w · xt/w · xt−1 = 1

Methodology

Explanatory factors

◮ Growth in value added efficiency

et = pt · yt Rt(pt, wt, xt) 1 εt = et et−1

◮ Technical progress

τ(t − 1, t, p, w, x) = Rt(p, w, x) Rt−1(p, w, x)

Methodology

Straightforward decomposition

◮ Value added growth decomposition

Thoughts on the industry results

◮ Only 4 industries showed considerable technical progress beyond 2004

  • Agriculture, forestry and fishing
  • Retail trade
  • Wholesale trade
  • Financial and insurance services

◮ Some industries showed little technical progress even earlier than the

2004 peak

  • Mining (1996)
  • Electricity, gas, water and waste services (1998)
  • Information, media and telecommunications (1999)
  • Arts and recreation services (1991)

Thoughts on the industry results

◮ The amount of inefficiency for some industries was huge

  • Manufacturing
  • Mining
  • Electricity, gas, water and waste services
  • Accommodation and food services
  • Arts and recreation services

◮ Some of this inefficiency is probably real and some of it probably

indicates mismeasurement of inputs and outputs

Conclusions

Conclusions

◮ We have used a new decomposition of industry value added growth,

applied to official, publicly available data from the ABS

◮ The role of inefficiency proved to be very large for many industries

and states

  • We think that this result is more reasonable than simply interpreting

negative TFP growth as technological regress

  • Industries and states with huge amounts of inefficiency should be

investigated for possible mismeasurement of the underlying inputs and

  • utputs

◮ Our method is easily implementable by national statistical offices and

provides policy-relevant information on growth and productivity
