Growth Accounting
Definition
An analytical framework that decomposes economic or firm-level output growth into contributions from labour, capital, and a residual factor often interpreted as technological progress or total factor productivity. Growth accounting is fundamental to understanding how intangible investments — in R&D, software, organisational design, and human capital — drive productivity improvements.
