文摘According to OECD standards(United Nations,2008),“productivity is commonly defined as a ratio of a volume measure of output to a volume measure of input use”.This ratio indicates how efficiently production inputs,such as labour and capital,are being used in an economy to produce a given level of outputs.Productivity stays aside the main aggregates of national accounts,as the national income(a proxy of GDP),the total output and the circulating capital.Assume the existence of a Leontief-type national Input-Output Table with the vector of total output and the vector of intermediate inputs,situated on its right and lower border.In this paper a measure of capital productivity is proposed.It is called the productiveness,and results from the solution of a boundary value problem,elaborated for Input-Output Tables,involving the vector of total output and the vector of intermediate inputs.
