Capacity utilization under increasing returns to scale
Article Abstract:
An analysis of the 'elasticity effects' and 'returns-to-scale effects' of capacity management reveals that these mechanisms provide a powerful propagation mechanism of the business cycle. Evidence for empirical findings suggests the estimated elasticity of capital to be near zero and that of labor to be equal to or near one. Moreover, the study points out that the results provide a better view of US aggregate growth dynamics at the business cycle frequency.
