A knowledge of this propensity is important to evaluate the national return on additional saving and to understand the impact that an increased capital stock could have on labor productivity and on the composition of national output. The present paper provides both a theoretical and an empirical examination of this question UR - https://www.nber.org/papers/w0448 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.3386/w0448 ER -
