Does the Solow Residual for Korea Reflect Pure Technology Shocks?
Author InfoHyunjoon Lim Sangho Kim Abstract This study investigates the relationship between the measured Solow residual and demand side variables for the Korean economy. The measured Solow residuals are shown to be Granger-caused by some demand side variables such as exports, M1, and government expenditure. A vector error correction model is constructed to investigate dynamic relation between these demand side variables and the Solow residual. Impulse response functions shows that the measured Solow residual moves pro-cyclically with the demand shocks, and that the forecast error variance of the measured Solow residual is mostly explained by past innovations of these demand side variables Download InfoTo download: If you experience problems downloading a file, check if you have the proper application to view it first.
