The extensive growth is based on the expansion of the quantity of inputs in order to increase the quantity
of outputs. But the costs of production remain high and the ability to raise the quantity of inputs is limited.

9. b/ Increasing the labour productivity to get an intensive growth

The intensive growth is based on the increase of the labor productivity in order to increase the
quantity of outputs and / or reduce the production costs.

10. increase of the labor productivity

Productivity can be improved by using technology that allows more to be done in less time.
Productivity is an average measure of the efficiency of workers (labor factor) :
quantity of labor input

productivity =
2 bookcases

11. Test : How to measure the productivity?
Before the mechanisation, 10 000 employees were needed to build 25 000 cars. After the mechanisation,
8 000 employees produce 72 000 cars. Choose the right answer(s) :
❏ Before the mechanisation, 2.5 employees produced 1 car in average
❏ Before the mechanisation, 1 employee produced 2.5 cars in average
❏ After the mechanisation, each employee produce 9 cars in average
❏ After the mechanisation, each employee produce 12 cars in average
❏ The mechanisation creates productivity gains

17. “Productivity isn’t everything, but in the long run it is almost
everything. A country’s ability to improve its standard of living
over time depends almost entirely on its ability to raise its
output per worker.”
Paul Krugman, The Age of Diminishing Expectations (1994)

18. c/ getting growth with innovations
18
Actually, a great part of the economic growth rate comes from a general improvement in production,
thanks to the technical progress. Nobody can really say which factor of production (labor or capital) is the
main source of the growth… Actually, both together create the growth !
That’s why the Multi- factor productivity (MFP) is calculated.
The so-called multi-factor productivity (MFP) measures the residual growth that cannot be explained
by the rate of change in the services of labour, capital and intermediate outputs, and is often interpreted
as the contribution to economic growth made by factors such as technical and organisational
innovation.
Multifactor productivity growth refers to the contribution of :
● technology,
● advances in knowledge,
● improvements in management, or production techniques

Perfect inventory

logistics skills rather

a super efficient

needed
a super efficient website

drones self-drive cars
New activities → new jobs → growth (+) BUT outdated activities and jobs are destroyed → growth (-)
The Multi-Factor
Productivity (MFP)

20. Getting growth with innovations : how Schumpeter describes it.
20
The "gale [storm] of creative destruction" describes the "process of industrial
mutation that incessantly revolutionizes the economic structure from within,
incessantly destroying the old one, incessantly creating a new one".
Find another example that might reflect this quotation. Build
a reasoning from this example, with these economic words :
● labor factor
● capital factor
● productivity, multi-factor productivity (MFP)
● economic growth
● innovation

21. d/ Accumulating capital (in different forms) to create a self-maintained growth
All depends on the ability of accumulating capital in different forms :
21
GurunES
Human capitalmanufactured capital natural capital
social capitalfinancial capital
the institutions that
maintain / develop
human capital in
partnership with
others : families,
communities,
businesses, trade
unions, schools,
and voluntary
organisations.
people's health,
knowledge, skills
and motivation. All
these things are
needed for
productive work.
material goods or fixed
assets which contribute
to the production
process rather than
being the output itself –
e.g. tools, machines
and buildings.
It is enabling the other
types of Capital to be
owned and traded. It
has no real value itself
but is representative of
natural, human, social
or manufactured capital;
e.g. shares, bonds or
banknotes.
any stock or flow of
energy and material
that produces
goods and services.
It includes
resources :
renewable and
non-renewable
materials
positive externalities

24. e/ Particular importance of the institutions
A patent of invention is an intellectual property right. It is a rule , guaranteed by the
institutions, that protects your invention or your artistic creation.
Without such a rule, anybody could copy your invention and the copycat corporations
could sell the same product at lower prices, since they don’t need to finance the
investments in research you have to finance !
Without this rule, no more trade ! No more business ! No more growth !

26. key things to memorize
26
parts of this chapter key things to memorise
a/ Using more factors of
production
3 production factors : labor / natural resources / capital
used to produce an output
More factors → more output = extensive growth
But there are limits : natural resources are not extensive, neither the labor factor.
b/ Increasing the labour
productivity to get an
intensive growth
The labor productivity measures the efficiency of workers.
Improving the labor productivity → reduction of costs →
● lower prices and higher wages → higher purchase → more consumption
● higher profit → more investment → more production
More consumption and more production mean more economic growth.
c/ getting growth with
innovations
Actually the economic growth is based on the productivity of a mix of capital and labor factors as a result
of innovations.
It is better measured by the MFP (MultiFactors Productivity).
Example of the numerous consequences of the e-business on the economic growth.
d/ Accumulating capital (in
different forms) to create a
self-maintained growth
Nowadays no more labor factor and capital factor : we just speak about 5 types of capital (as a wealth) :
human capital, manufactured capital, natural capital, social capital, financial capital.
Accumulating these 5 types of capital creates a self maintained growth.
e/ Particular importance of
the institutions
the economy needs rules in order to encourage capital owners to accumulate more capitals.
Example of illegal music and video downloading.
