- 1. Productivity Growth and Capacity Utilization ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0027M2013085Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper presents a non-parametric approach for adjusting the multifactor productivity growth (MFPG) measure for variations in capacity utilization over time. In the framework developed here, a capital utilization measure is derived from the economic theory of production and is estimated by comparing the ex-post return with the ex-ante expected return on capital. The non-parametric approach is then compared with the parametric approach and the standard growth accounting framework. Both the non-parametric and parametric approaches correct for the cyclical bias in the standard MFPG measure, but the non-parametric approach offers more practical adjustment for capacity utilization, because it is easier to implement and more in line with the non-parametric approach long used by statistical agencies and researchers.
Release date: 2013-07-23 - 2. Export Growth, Capacity Utilization and Productivity Growth: Evidence from Canadian Manufacturing Plants ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0027M2011075Geography: CanadaDescription:
Labour productivity growth in the Canadian business sector slowed substantially after 2000. Most of the slowdown occurred in the manufacturing sector. This paper examines how this slowdown was associated with the restructuring that occurred in manufacturing as a result of the increase in excess capacity, the dramatic increase in the Canada-U.S. exchange rate and a slowdown in export growth.
Release date: 2011-12-12 - 64C0013Description:
Quarterly and annual estimates of capacity utilization for good producing industries (excluding farmers), historically back to 1971.
Release date: 2005-04-01 - 4. Electric Power Capability and Load ArchivedTable: 57-204-XDescription:
The publication provides data from all generators of electricity and/or those who have imports, exports or interprovincial transactions in electricity. Data on both power at Winter peak and energy are reported for the current year, the previous year and ten years ago. Also included are data on receipts and deliveries, contractual losses, capability, power generation, reserve, and an appendix with power plant names, type, and details.
Release date: 2004-03-01 - Table: 61-206-XDescription:
This publication presents capital expenditures on construction and on machinery and equipment for divisions and industries at the Canada level and by division at the provincial level. Capital expenditures split between private and public investment are also shown. The tabulations cover preliminary estimates of actual investment for the previous year, the original intentions and revised intentions on capital spending for the current year. The investment data are gathered from about 27,000 establishments and establishment groups in Canadian businesses, institutions and governments.
