Potential TFP Gains from Equalizing TFPR

TFP Gains (percent)Relative to U.S. (percent)
Cote d’Ivoire31.4−8.3
Ethiopia66.616.4
Ghana75.722.7
Kenya162.683.4

Kenya162.683.4

Source: Authors’ calculations based on firm-level census data from Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana, and Kenya.

Note: The relative TFPR gains are calculated by taking the ratio of TFPeff/TFP to the U.S. ratio in 1997, subtracting 1, and multiplying by 100 to obtain the numbers in the second column. TFPR and TFPQ are revenue and physical productivity, respectively.
