These developments have raised a number of concerns, such as: how do we measure intangible assets? Are we accurately appraising newer, high-technology capital? The answers to these questions have broad implications for the assessment of the economy's growth over the long term, for the pace of technological advancement in the economy, and for estimates of the nation's wealth. In Measuring Capital in the New Economy, Carol Corrado, John Haltiwanger, Daniel Sichel, and a host of distinguished collaborators offer new approaches for measuring capital in an economy that is increasingly dominated by high-technology capital and intangible assets. As the contributors show, high-tech capital and intangible assets affect the economy in ways that are notoriously difficult to appraise. In this detailed and thorough analysis of the problem and its solutions, the contributors study the nature of these relationships and provide guidance as to what factors should be included in calculations of different types of capital for economists, policymakers, and the financial and accounting communities alike.Studies in income and wealth ;v. 65.CapitalStatistical methodsCapital investmentsStatistical methodsCapital productivityStatistical methodsindustrial, research, statistics, federal reserve, financial, money, economics, economical, technology, discovery, advances, high tech, development, intangible, assets, capital, growth, policymaker, public policy, legal, political, politics, government, america, american, united states, usa, framework, essay collection, academic, scholarly, college, university, productivity, workers, workplace, career, job, national, higher education.CapitalStatistical methods.Capital investmentsStatistical methods.Capital productivityStatistical methods.330 s332/.041/015195QP 770rvkCorrado Carol1484680Haltiwanger John C140766Sichel Daniel E1484681Conference on Research in Income and Wealth.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782997103321Measuring capital in the new economy3703453UNINA
