Profit-oriented productivity change: A comment

Bert Balk

Omega, 2018, vol. 78, issue C, 176-178

Abstract: This paper is a comment on [6]. It is shown that: (1) their ‘profit-Luenberger’ productivity indicator (πL) appears to be identically equal to an empirical, profit-based Bennet quantity indicator, and (2) their ‘price effect’ (PE) is a residual without independent interpretation.
