摘要 |
In the model where the
technological choice by firms endogenously determines productivity
differences, we investigate the link between factor endowments and
productivities both in the firm and industry levels. We find among
others that in autarky, firms in capital-abundant countries tend to
adopt new advanced technologies more in their production processes.
Opening to international trade will equalize factor prices across
countries and as a result productivity differences across countries
disappear, if their states of technologies are the same. If the states
of technologies are different, on the other hand, the country with a
higher state of technology has a lower wage-rental ratio than the other.
We argue that the capital-abundant country tends to have a higher state
of technology, so if that is the case the wage-rental ratio is lower in
the capital-abundant country in free trade. |
