Abstract:
This paper is confined to discussion of methods of estimating Capital
Stock, with a review of numerical results already available and a summary
of new results calculated by the writer. Illustrations of the uses to which
capital stock data may be put are not considered. Section 1 gives Professor
Nevin's figures for the years 1950-59 and also the writer's reworking of
them and their extension to 1968. Section 2 considers unsatisfactory
aspects of the methods used by Nevin, looks at some alternative methods
and definitions of capital stock and gives the writer's approach to a new
set of results for the period 1953 to 1968. Section 3 discusses these latter
results.
