SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS""; ""CALCULATING CAPITAL STOCK""; ""REFERENCES"" 330 3 $aThis paper has examined Papua New Guinea's historical economic growth patterns through a simple growth accounting framework. The analysis shows that swings in growth are mostly accounted for by a significant slowdown in capital input and lower Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth. It also suggests that raising real GDP growth will require increases in both investment levels and productivity. With a ratio of investment to GDP of 13 percent during the last decade, significantly higher productivity growth and investment will be needed to sustain GDP growth rates at 5 percent or higher. The historical performance also indicates that, in the absence of structural reforms and strong institutions, higher rates of productivity growth will be hard to achieve. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/113 606 $aGross domestic product$zPapua New Guinea 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aProduction and Operations Management$2imf 606 $aProduction$2imf 606 $aCost$2imf 606 $aCapital and Total Factor Productivity$2imf 606 $aCapacity$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics: Production$2imf 606 $aLabor Economics: General$2imf 606 $aAccounting$2imf 606 $aLabour$2imf 606 $aincome economics$2imf 606 $aEconomic growth$2imf 606 $aTotal factor productivity$2imf 606 $aProductivity$2imf 606 $aLabor$2imf 606 $aGrowth accounting$2imf 606 $aProduction growth$2imf 606 $aIndustrial productivity$2imf 606 $aLabor economics$2imf 606 $aEconomic development$2imf 606 $aEconomic theory$2imf 607 $aPapua New Guinea$xEconomic conditions 607 $aPapua New Guinea$2imf 615 0$aGross domestic product 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aProduction and Operations Management 615 7$aProduction 615 7$aCost 615 7$aCapital and Total Factor Productivity 615 7$aCapacity 615 7$aMacroeconomics: Production 615 7$aLabor Economics: General 615 7$aAccounting 615 7$aLabour 615 7$aincome economics 615 7$aEconomic growth 615 7$aTotal factor productivity 615 7$aProductivity 615 7$aLabor 615 7$aGrowth accounting 615 7$aProduction growth 615 7$aIndustrial productivity 615 7$aLabor economics 615 7$aEconomic development 615 7$aEconomic theory 700 $aFaal$b Ebrima$01462139 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788526203321 996 $aGrowth and Productivity in Papua New Guinea$93670981 997 $aUNINA
