Contribution of the Information and Communication Technology sector to Mexican economic growth from 1999 to 2004

Abstract: We conducted a growth accounting exercise where we distinguish information and communication technology (ICT) capital and the rest of physical capital from 1999 to 2004. Implicit deflators and factor shares were used from different sources. Following the example of the Australian Bureau of Statistics, price indexes from the US ICT's sector were suitably translated to the Mexican ICT sector. Although ICT capital grew in an accelerating manner during the analyzed period, its contribution to economic growth was l… Show more

“…Although the aggregate production function points to the determinants of long-term economic growth, namely the accumulation of capital and labor, and the introduction of technical change, it should be underlined that the critical variable, the so-called Solow residual, is not directly observable. Fortunately, in 1957 the Nobel laureate proposed the method to calculate it, that is to say, to discriminate the contributions to the economic growth of each of the arguments in the aggregate production function (Guerrero, 2009). To implement it, Solow (1957, p. 314) explained, in exemplary detail, every decision made.…”
