The Effects of Human Capital and R&D in TFP Growth: The Case of Iran
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 1-30
Abstract
In this study, we examine factors influencing the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) in the Iranian economy. These factors are the percentage of higher education employees as proxy for human capital, the government research and development capital stock and the ratio of actual output to potential output ... Read MoreSources of Real Exchange Rate Fluctuations in Iran
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 31-50
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the sources of real exchange rate fluctuations in Iran by decomposing real exchange rate fluctuations into those attributable to real and nominal shocks. Using a structural VAR model along with Impulse-Response Function and Variance Decomposition Method, ... Read MoreConvergence in D8 Countries
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 51-78
Abstract
In this paper, we study per capita GDP convergence in D8 countries. We test for convergence hypothesis using two approaches: Time series model (Augmented Dickey Fuller Test), and distribution model (Theil Inequality index and cross sectional variance). The time series model estimation results show that ... Read MoreDecomposition of Energy Intensity in the Iranian Manufacturing Industries
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 79-110
Abstract
In this paper, we study the factors affecting changes in energy intensity in Iran. We use Fisher Ideal index in order to decompose the energy intensity into the structural changes and efficiency improvements in the Iranian manufacturing industries during 1993-2004. The results show that the structural ... Read MoreThe Effects of E-Banking on Commercial Banks Profitability: The Case of Iran

Electronic banking is one of the applications of the information and communication technology (ICT) in money market and banking industry. In this paper, we investigate the effects of electronic banking on the commercial banks profitability using an econometric model. The model is based on the* Structure-Conduct-Performance* ... Read MorePrice Change Transmission Mechanism from Producer Price Index to Consumer Price Index in Iran
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 141-158
Abstract
This paper studies the price change transmission mechanism from producer price index to consumer price index using Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model. We use the monthly data on the PPI, WPI, and CPI for the period 1990:4 to 2005:3 The results from impulse response function suggest that a positive ... Read MoreThe Effect of Real Exchange Rate Uncertainty on Private Investment
Volume 11, Issue 35 , July 2008, Pages 159-176
Abstract
This paper studies the effect of real exchange rate uncertainty on private investment in Iran. We estimate the effect using a model for private investment in Iran and the time series data for the period 1977-2004. We use the GARCH method to construct an estimate of the real exchange rate uncertainty, ... Read MoreThe Effects of Productivity Shocks on Economic Growth in Iran

Abstract
Identification of sources of disturbances in production and economic growth are amongst the most important macroeconomic discussions. There are fundamental differences between different economic schools with regard to factors creating business cycles. Research methodology of this paper is descriptive. ...
