Suppose we have observations ranging over t=0,1,...,T on real net investment
and on real gross investment
. We derive a method of calculating the depreciation rate for each of the periods
and of estimating ‘the’ implied net capital stock
. We then provide empirical examples of the procedure and analyse the results.
