On Output of the Swedish Education Sector: Additional Remarks.

The main purpose of this paper is to relate the empirical attempt of measuring output from the education sector to theoretical results about the welfare significance of an extended net national product (NNP) measure. We show that economic theory provides a more focused way of interpreting such output estimates, which has not been recognized in previous studies. The paper also contains new estimates of the output from the Swedish education sector. Copyright 1999 by The International Association for Research in Income and Wealth.
