Empirical patterns of firm growth and R&D investment : a quality ladder model interpretation

by Tor Jakob Klette (University of Oslo and Statistics Norway) and Zvi Griliches (Harvard University and NBER)

We present a model of endogenous firm growth with R&D investment and stochastic innovation as the engines of growth. The model for firm growth is a partial equilibrium model drawing on the quality ladder models in the macro growth literature, but also on the literature on patent races and the discrete choice models of product differentiation.
